OREF is partnering with the Medical Technology Enterprise Consortium (MTEC) and the Department of Defense’s Military Operational Medicine Research Program (MOMRP) to fund research addressing solutions to accelerate return-to-readiness for Service Members experiencing musculoskeletal injuries.
My experience is :
Academic - more freedom and flexible but less $ (no bonus), good for people just start their family with young kids. Also, good to build your reputation and brand because your research outcomes are all belong to you.
Industry- more $$$. Less freedom. The outcomes (products) are not belong to you.
This is an important article published in PNAS which could be a landmark article for humans occupying Mars. This research article found out a new way to generate oxygen using salt liquid (mainly MgCl) which abundant in Mars.
Very interesting article published in PNAS in 2020. This research from China explained why panda like to roll their body in horse poop especially at one time of year.
Obesity can increase the risk of many diseases, including CVD and some cancers. This paper published in Cell Journal shed light how cancer cells growth in conjunction with fatty diets. Briefly, based on their studies, high-fat diet reduced the number and activity of cancer-killing immune cells inside the tumors, accelerating cancer growth.

In early January, people used satellite images taken of funeral homes and crematoriums in several major Chinese cities and found out that there were increased activities in those areas and suggested that there was significant surge in death after the government in China has given up their well known zero Covid-19 tolerance policy. Very interesting.
It probably worked initially for the original Covid strain when there were no interventions (eg drugs and vaccines) at all. China did quite good to minimize the spread of Covid-19 while the rest of the world was suffering. But the emergence of Covid omicron, the game was changing. It proves the zero tolerance policy was no longer working at all.
