## Resource

Researchers have discovered that combining existing Alzheimer's antibody therapies with molecules found in everyday foods could make treatments more effective and dramatically safer. A massive study of over 23,000 adults has identified three sleep habits that measurably accelerate brain aging, while a separate finding reveals the recombinant shingles vaccine may cut dementia risk by 24 percent in older adults. Scientists have also uncovered a hidden molecular switch that helps colorectal cancer spread to the liver, and a Cambridge-led analysis of over 100 million people has found a striking link between cannabis use and elevated stroke risk even in younger adults. From a goblin shark spotted alive in the deep sea for the very first time to quantum physics being recreated in a water tank with unexpected results, this episode is packed with discoveries that challenge what we thought we knew.
