New research from Yale suggests a different approach. In a study published in Bioactive Materials, scientists found that the medication lacosamide can serve two purposes in osteoarthritis, reducing joint pain while also reversing cartilage damage. The effects were particularly strong when the drug was delivered directly into the joint using a specialized hydrogel.

That distinction matters because vitamin D2 and vitamin D3 are often treated as interchangeable sources of the same nutrient. Both can increase overall vitamin D status, but a growing body of evidence indicates that D3 is generally more effective at raising and maintaining the main form of vitamin D measured in the blood. Current guidance from the U.S. National Institutes of Health reflects that evidence, noting that D3 tends to raise vitamin D levels more and keep them elevated for longer than D2.
Advances in AI offer tantalizing glimpses of a future in which robots navigate the world the way humans do. The question is whether the same techniques that fueled AI’s recent progress will be enough to get there, or if an entirely new path is required.

That ancient impact dramatically altered Earth. Now, astronomers are using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope to investigate young star systems that appear to be experiencing similarly violent events. By studying these systems, researchers can estimate how energetic the collisions were and learn more about how rocky planets form and evolve.
