Kate and William react to Camilla becoming Queen Consort – cosmopolitan.com

Yesterday (6 February) marked the Queen's 70th year on the throne – making her the first British Monarch to ever reach the impressive milestone. To celebrate the special occasion, Her Majesty shared a rare message with fans in which she thanked them for their support throughout the last seven decades. She also took the opportunity to thank her late husband Prince Philip for the 'unselfish' sacrifices he had made in the role of consort. And, it was on that topic that the Queen made an important request, asking members of the public to accept her son's wife, Camilla Parker Bowles, as Queen Consort when he takes over as King. "When, in the fullness of time, my son Charles becomes King, I know you will give him and his wife Camilla the same support that you have given me", she wrote in h...

Is the Coronavirus in Your Backyard? – The New York Times

There are many theories, none entirely satisfying. An infectious hunter might encounter a deer, Dr. Mubareka noted, but “if they’re good at hunting,” she added, “it’s a terminal event for the deer.” If an infected hiker “sneezes and the wind is blowing in the right direction, it could cause an unlucky event,” said Dr. Tony Goldberg, a veterinary epidemiologist at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Or if people feed deer from their porch, they could be sharing more than just food. And white-tailed deer are expert leapers, reaching heights of eight feet. “If you want to fence deer out of a place, you have to be trying very hard,” said Scott Creel, an ecologist at Montana State University. Deer would have no trouble jumping into alfalfa fields to graze alongside cattle, perhaps inviting a ...

World 1st: Hope for paralyzed as Israeli lab spinal cords restore mice mobility – The Times of Israel

Israeli scientists have made paralyzed mice walk by giving them spinal cord implants, and say they are less than three years away from doing the same for humans in clinical trials. The world-first experiment took place at Tel Aviv University, where a large team engineered spinal cord tissue from human cells, and implanted them into 15 mice with long-term paralysis. Twelve of the mice then walked normally, the scientists revealed on Monday in newly peer-reviewed research published in the journal Advanced Science. “If this works in humans, and we believe that it will, it can offer all paralyzed people hope that they may walk again,” Prof. Tal Dvir’s research team at the Sagol Center for Regenerative Biotechnology told The Times of Israel, adding that discussions regarding clinica...
