You need to enable JavaScript to view this site.Psychedelic drugs have long been touted as possible treatments for mental-health disorders like depression and PTSD. But very little is really known about what these substances actually do to our brains—and it can be hard to find out. Understanding how they work could help unlock their potential. Some scientists are using AI to figure it out. Researchers at McGill University in Montreal are among those using natural language processing—the technique that allows voice assistants or search engines to work — to study written “trip reports” of...…You need to enable JavaScript to view this site.Psychedelic drugs have long been touted as possible treatments for mental-health disorders like depression and PTSD.

×ByDonated lungs that are too damaged to be used in transplants have been revived after being connected to the blood supply of a live pig. The technique could potentially triple the number of lungs available for transplant, say the researchers behind the work.As soon as someone dies, their lungs begin to deteriorate. If the person has chosen to donate their lungs, the race is on to get the organs to a recipient as soon as possible. “The lung is very delicate,” says James Fildes at the University of Manchester, UK, who wasn’t involved in the work. “It is one of the most difficult organs to...…×ByDonated lungs that are too damaged to be used in transplants have been revived after being connected to the blood supply of a live pig.

That’s according to a study that followed a small group of people infected with the virus from diagnosis to hospital discharge or death.Early on in the outbreak, two hospitals in Wuhan, China, were designated to treat people infected with the coronavirus. Until 1 February, people who were diagnosed with the virus in other hospitals in the city were transferred to one of the two for care.By 31 January, 191 adults had been treated for the virus and either...…×ByPeople who have the new coronavirus are most likely to die if they are older or show signs of sepsis or blood clotting problems.
