Pregnancy Rewires Brain Circuit Driving Food Cravings in Mice — 6dResearchers have pinpointed a brain mechanism in mice linking pregnancy to stronger cravings for palatable foods: serotonin neurons in the dorsal raphe nucleus become less active during gestation due to increased SK3 channel activity, which drives food-seeking behavior. The team also traced a neural pathway to the ventral tegmental area, where activation reduces cravings, shedding light on the neural basis of gestational eating patterns observed in humans.

Human Brain Organoids Build Circuits in Cortex-Less Mice — Sep 16, 2026Researchers have transplanted lab-grown human brain organoids into mice engineered to lack most of their cortex, creating xenocortical models in which human tissue integrates and expands to occupy missing brain regions, showing activity and neural connections that can restore aspects of cognition and behavior. These studies establish a new in vivo platform for studying human brain development and neurodevelopmental disorders, while highlighting both therapeutic potential and ongoing challenges in translating organoid-based findings to human health.

Chris Dalton Restoring some mouse behavior is interesting but it probably won't translate cleanly to fixing actual human brain problems anytime soon.

Study Finds Dogs Distinguish Human Facial EmotionsScience — Sep 10, 2026New science confirms dogs are proficient at reading human emotions through facial expressions, body language, and tone, with happier faces triggering reward-related brain activity while negative expressions elicit distinct neural patterns. Additional findings emphasize that dogs communicate through stillness and other cues, signaling fear or uncertainty as a sophisticated form of social communication rather than mere obedience.

New Rehabilitation Technologies Help Patients Walk AgainHealth — Sep 3, 2026A Kentucky mother, Kaycie Jackson, is regaining mobility after spinal tumors with UofL Health's Zero-G 3D Body Weight Support System, progressing from a wheelchair to walking and driving with hand controls. Abroad in China, 12-year-old Vera uses a self-developed neural interface and AI-assisted rehabilitation to stand and walk again with assistive devices after a severe spinal cord injury, signaling emerging global advances in spinal rehabilitation.

Physics-first AI model debuts, handles 5 trillion data — Aug 25, 2026A team formerly expected to lead Bezos-backed Project Prometheus has developed a physics-first AI that can ingest and output vastly more data than traditional language models, handling 5 trillion datapoints in a single prompt. By abandoning Transformer-based language processing in favor of neural operators, the system aims to predict physical phenomena and advance fields like chip design, positioning itself as a more nature-centered form of intelligence.

Valeura Secures USD 325 Million Credit Facility — Jul 22, 2026Valeura Energy has announced a revolving and expandable credit facility of up to US$75 million, with an accordion option to US$325 million, backed by a syndicate including ICBC Standard Bank, Macquarie, Trafigura, and UOB, aimed at funding value-enhancing acquisitions. With roughly US$320 million cash on hand, total liquidity would reach about US$645 million, and the three-year facility carries a 4% margin over SOFR on drawn amounts and no mandatory repayments in the first two years, subject to lender conditions.
