In 2015, researchers reconstructed a 1,000-year-old eye remedy from Bald’s Leechbook using garlic, onion or leek, wine, cow bile and brass, then left it for the prescribed nine days. It destroyed more than 99.99 percent of S. aureus in laboratory biofilms and reduced MRSA by about 90 percent in infected mouse-wound tissue during a four-hour test—while vancomycin produced no significant reduction under the same conditions.
11+ hour, 9+ min ago (1245+ words) The 2015 study found four-to-five-log killing in synthetic-wound biofilms and a tenfold MRSA reduction in excised mouse tissue, but it was not a treatment trial.

In a 2013 experiment, 20 of 24 radiologists missed a gorilla deliberately inserted into a chest CT scan while searching for nodules — eye tracking showed that 12 of those who missed it had looked straight at the animal hiding inside the image.
5+ day, 4+ hour ago (943+ words) A 2013 CT experiment showed that expert readers could look directly at an unexpected gorilla without reporting it.

In 2022, a 17-year-old built a $300 thought-controlled prosthetic arm; unlike very expensive and invasive brain-controlled systems, his version reads brainwaves through non-invasive electrodes
1+ week, 3+ day ago (329+ words) One arm is a research-lab masterwork that reads a wearer's intent and, in some setups, lets them feel through it. Published September 4, 2026 · How we edit We are not clinicians, prosthetists, or biomedical engineers, and nothing here is medical guidance. This…...

A 2024 AARP survey of 1,010 adults aged 50-plus found that 44% believed they had grown happier over time—yet only 22% thought most people do, a striking gap between how ageing feels from the inside and how we imagine it happens to everyone else.
2+ week, 2+ day ago (1642+ words) AARP's 44% versus 22% gap compares a retrospective judgment about one's own life with a belief about other people, while neutral responses and the one-time design limit what it can show.

Seven drug regulators, including the EU, UK, and Canada, have warned since 2019 that antidepressant-linked sexual side effects can persist for years after the drug is stopped. The US hasn't.
