Exciting Physics Experiments You Can Try Today

Cleo Abram on Instagram: "Huntington’s disease successfully treated for the first time ever. In this trial, scientists inserted a virus containing new DNA into the brain that helps neurons destroy dangerous proteins. Their data showed the treatment slowed the progression of the disease down by 75% - and this is just the start!

UC Berkeley on Instagram: "ICYMI, last week, professor emeritus John Clarke shared the Nobel Prize in physics with John Martinis and Michel Devoret, who worked alongside Clarke researching quantum tunneling while at Cal. And for chemistry, Professor Omar Yaghi was recognized for his work in developing metal-organic frameworks. Yaghi’s win brings UC Berkeley’s count to a total of 28 faculty members who have won a Nobel Prize. These researchers are among the five affiliated with the @uofcalifornia
