A new study from the Big Data Institute and Nuffield Department of Population Health shows that people averaging over ~12 ,300 steps a day had a 59 % lower chance of being diagnosed later with Parkinson’s disease compared with those walking under ~6,300 steps.

Scientists at TU Wien have developed a non-toxic “deep-eutectic” solvent that separates blended fabrics — like cotton-polyester mixes — within minutes. Cotton stays intact and polyester is recovered almost fully, offering a near-complete recycling method for textiles that were once nearly impossible to reclaim.

Researchers at the University of Cologne have discovered a powerful antibody — 04_A06 — that neutralizes around 98.5 % of over 300 tested HIV strains. In lab experiments the antibody reduced viral load to undetectable levels — a major step toward broad-spectrum therapies for prevention and treatment worldwide.
