MIT has made a bold move by rejecting a proposal from the White House. This proposal, called the "Compact for Academic Excellence in Higher Education, " was sent to nine universities. It included demands like limiting international students, freezing tuition, and defining gender in specific ways. MI
MIT made a bold move. They turned down federal money. Why? Because the money came with strings attached. The Trump administration wanted MIT to agree to certain rules. These rules would limit who could use which restrooms. They would also cap the number of international students. Plus, they would fr
Mitochondria are like tiny powerhouses inside our cells. They keep us going, but sometimes they go wrong and cause problems. Tiny molecules called miRNAs help control these powerhouses. Scientists have been trying to find ways to see and fix these miRNAs to help treat diseases like cancer. A new id
Mitch McConnell, the former Senate Majority Leader, expressed concern over the unexpected retirement of Senator Thom Tillis from North Carolina. McConnell described Tillis' departure as a significant blow to the Republican Party, highlighting his effectiveness and collegiality during their time serv
Mitch Marner is now a Vegas Golden Knight. This happened because of a special trade with the Toronto Maple Leafs. Marner agreed to stay with Vegas for a long time. He will earn $12 million every year for the next eight years. Vegas gave up Nicolas Roy to get Marner. Roy is a good player, but he is
Mitochondria are the powerhouses of cells, but they can also cause trouble when things go wrong. Two key factors that can indicate mitochondrial issues are levels of NAD(P)H and pH. These factors are closely linked to a process called mitochondrial autophagy, which is the cell's way of cleaning up d
Mitochondria are tiny powerhouses inside our cells. They generate energy for our bodies to function. There are cases where these powerhouses don't work right. This can lead to some serious health issues. One such issue is a group of diseases that affect how people move. These are called mitocho
Mites are tiny creatures that play a big role in breaking down organic matter in soil. This helps in the carbon cycle, which is vital for life on Earth. But when did these mites first appear and start their work? This is a tricky question. Some think they showed up way back in the Precambrian era, w
Mitochondria are the powerhouses of cells, and they are always changing shape. Why they do this has been a mystery. Scientists looked at yeast cells growing in different foods. They found that the shape of mitochondria and their activity do not go hand in hand. Cells can have different mitochondrial
Mitochondrial diseases are tricky. They are caused by faulty genes in the tiny powerhouses of our cells, called mitochondria. These diseases can be passed from mothers to their children, making family planning a complex issue. The way these faulty genes mix with healthy ones, called heteroplasmy, pl
