'Holy grail' blood test to help NHS diagnose different cancers fails in trial
'Holy grail' blood test to help NHS diagnose different cancers fails in trial NHS hopes dashed after trial of the first multi-cancer blood test it had hoped would revolutionise treatment - but scientists say all may not be lost Hopes that a “revolutionary” cancer blood test could soon be rolled out on the NHS have been dashed after a trial failed to achieve its main goal. The NHS had hoped to prove that the first multi-cancer blood test, which has been dubbed the “Holy Grail” for medical...
FP8 is All You Need (Part 1): Debunking Hardware FP64 as the HPC Holy Grail
arXiv:2606.06510v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Conventional HPC dogma holds that native hardware FP64 silicon is the irreducible foundation of scientific computing -- the "holy grail" of double-precision simulation. This paper argues the dogma is wrong: on AI-optimised GPUs of the B300 generation and beyond, abundant FP8 tensor throughput combined with the Chinese Remainder Theorem-based Ozaki Scheme II recovers memory-roof execution at full FP64 accuracy across the canonical HPC kernel...
Trial of multi-cancer blood test among 142,000 NHS patients fails to meet main aim
Results presented at oncology conference in Chicago show Galleri test failed to reduce late-stage cancer diagnosesA blood test for more than 50 types of cancer that was billed as the holy grail of oncology has failed to achieve its main objective in a major clinical trial, according to data presented at the world’s largest cancer conference. The goal of the study involving 142,000 NHS patients in the UK was to assess whether adding the multi-cancer early detection test Galleri to standard...

Green growth claims are overstated—our study shows three reasons why
Green growth claims are overstated—our study shows three reasons why Lisa Lock Scientific Editor Andrew Zinin Lead Editor A holy grail of environmental policy is an economy that delivers prosperity without requiring the ever-increasing consumption of raw materials. Increasing incomes while reducing environmental pressures hinges on the "decoupling" of energy emissions from economic growth. Some countries in the global economy are moving in the right direction.

Microsoft's new quantum chip is 1,000 times more reliable than its predecessor — but why is this new chip so controversial?
Microsoft's new quantum chip is 1,000 times more reliable than its predecessor — but why is this new chip so controversial? The Majorana 2 quantum processor is built from topological qubits, and its creators claim it can sustain quantum coherence for an average of 20 seconds — orders of magnitude longer than the milliseconds that conventional chips last. Microsoft has revealed a new quantum computing chip with quantum bits (qubits) it says are capable of maintaining their quantum state for...
Indonesian parrot, seen once in a century, reappears in mountain forest
Indonesian parrot, seen once in a century, reappears in mountain forest June 3 : For the past century, the Blue-fronted Lorikeet was one of Indonesia's most elusive birds, known only from a 2014 photographic record and a handful of museum specimens, with a lingering hope that it had not vanished. After days of climbing through sharp limestone, biting insects and difficult mountain terrain, a flash of green feathers high on Buru's highest peak showed that this dazzlingly colourful parrot was...
Cancer breakthrough as new 'game-changing' pill could DOUBLE survival time for most deadly diseases
Cancer breakthrough as new 'game-changing' pill could DOUBLE survival time for most deadly diseases Prostate cancer patients normally have a devastatingly short life expectancy - but the new daily pill being offered in clinical trials could change that A “game-changing” daily pill helped almost double survival time for patients with the most deadly major cancer. Pancreatic cancer patients on the drug lived for twice as long as those on chemotherapy. The pill’s success is thought to be the...
Medieval King Arthur manuscript could fetch £2m at auction
A richly illuminated medieval manuscript containing early versions of the Merlin and Grail legends is set to be auctioned. The tome, which features detailed illustrations such as Merlin as a shape-shifting stag and the Knights of the Round Table, has been kept in private hands for over 700 years. The manuscript is estimated to fetch around £2 million.
