Recent DNA findings from Pompeii reveal complex ancestry and social diversity, challenging earlier assumptions about family structures and cultural roles in the ancient city. Analysing skeletal remains has shown that some groups presumed to be family members were not biologically related, while traditional gender roles were also re-evaluated. This research highlights the cosmopolitan nature of Pompeii’s society and opens a new chapter in understanding life before the eruption of Mount Vesuvius.

Russia has postponed its SKIF Photon Source, Kurchatov Synchrotron Radiation Source modernisation, and neutron research expansion due to trade sanctions and budget issues. The sanctions restrict access to specialised equipment needed for these projects, now dependent on alternative sources. Officials remain optimistic about completing them by adjusted deadlines, though experts voice scepticism over continued delays.
Sewage surveillance is emerging as a crucial method in combating antimicrobial resistance (AMR), according to new research from Virginia Tech. Published in Nature Water, the study demonstrates that monitoring wastewater provides a more efficient and comprehensive approach to tracking antibiotic-resistant bacteria than testing individuals. This method holds particular promise for underserved communities, where access to healthcare is limited, and AMR-related diseases are most prevalent. The research team, led by experts such as Dr. Leigh-Anne Krometis and Dr. Marc Edwards, explored sewage samples from 62 countries and found significant correlations between AMR levels and socioeconomic factors, such as healthcare accessibility. By examining wastewater, public health officials could gain early insights into AMR spread, allowing them to take targeted actions to protect vulnerable populations. This approach could revolutionise AMR monitoring, particularly in rural and low-income areas, where AMR poses a growing threat.
New findings reveal that mitochondria in nutrient-deprived cells adopt specialised roles to prioritise either energy generation or amino acid synthesis. Led by Dr. Craig Thompson of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, the study identified specific mitochondrial subpopulations, allowing cells to maintain critical functions even under stress. These discoveries have implications for understanding how cancer cells survive low-nutrient conditions and how cells repair after injury.

Apple’s latest update is not a substantial introduction but still includes tweaks to the video player in the Photos app, updated dark mode icons for apps, and more.
Scientists from IISc, University of Pennsylvania, and MIT reveal a breakthrough with indium selenide that transforms crystalline structures to glass using significantly less energy. By passing a continuous electric current, the crystalline material experiences a “shock” that converts it to glass. The low energy requirement could help lower power needs for data storage devices, potentially advancing phase-change memory in computers and mobile devices. This research opens a pathway for integrating this memory tech on CMOS platforms.
A team at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) has achieved a breakthrough with the Kagome superconductor RbV3Sb5, demonstrating time-reversal symmetry (TRS) breaking at 175 Kelvin. This discovery at higher temperatures than typically possible could pave the way for more energy-efficient and practical quantum systems, crucial for quantum computing and storage. The TRS-breaking properties are tunable, offering potential for further advancements in quantum technology, with implications for applications beyond laboratory settings.
