Regularly skimping on sleep may lead to weight gain and a larger waistline, new research found.In a recent study, adults who stayed up even a little late every night for six weeks but woke up at their regular time gained an average of 1 pound.[1]While that amount of weight gain may seem small, it’s important to note that it happened over a relatively short period, says senior author Marie-Pierre St-Onge, PhD, a professor of nutritional medicine at Columbia University Irving Medical Center in New York City.The adults were losing about 80 minutes of sleep per night.

In some ways, Altman’s plan is old news. He wrote about a more radical version of this back in 2021, proposing that all companies above a certain valuation (not just AI companies) pay 2.5% of their market value each year into a fund that sends Americans annual disbursements. In April this year, OpenAI described a narrower proposal that closely resembles what Altman is reportedly discussing with Trump now. And the notion has broad political appeal: Senator Bernie Sanders has proposed giving Americans a 50% stake in top AI companies. What’s the logic here? For would-be recipients, it’s twofold. First, AI…

Nearly 30 years ago, researchers discovered two unusual molecules in rye pollen that appeared to slow tumor growth in animal studies. Despite the promising findings, the research reached a dead end because scientists could not determine the molecules’ exact three dimensional structures. Now, chemists at Northwestern University have solved that long standing mystery. By constructing the molecules from scratch in the laboratory, they confirmed the precise structures of secalosides A and B for the first time. With an accurate molecular blueprint available, researchers can now investigate how these compounds from rye pollen, which comes from a cereal crop widely grown…
