- 1Molecular biologist claims a single pill could reverse aging▼Molecular biologist says one pill could reverse aging, but is it too good to be true?
A molecular biologist is claiming that a single pill could reverse aging, a statement now circulating in coverage that also asks whether the claim is too good to be true. Aging reversal is one of the most competitive areas of bioscience, and bold promises from researchers routinely draw both excitement and skepticism, since no approved pill has been shown to reverse aging in humans.
- 2Sacramento River heat threatens one in five Chinook salmon eggs▼California biologists warn Sacramento River heat could kill 1 in 5 Chinook salmon eggs
California wildlife biologists are warning that elevated water temperatures in the Sacramento River could kill roughly one in five Chinook salmon eggs this season. Warm water reduces oxygen levels and raises mortality rates for developing eggs, threatening one of the state's most important salmon runs on a river central to the state's water system.
