• Researchers have published two studies in which they surveyed readers on their thoughts about AI in journalism. When provided a sample of bylines stating AI was involved in producing news in some way or not at all,

The article from ScienceDaily discusses a study published in the journal *Nature Communications* that explores the potential of using a common cold virus, specifically a modified adenovirus, to treat glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer. Researchers at the University of Alberta found that this virus, when genetically modified to enhance its cancer-killing properties, could effectively target and destroy glioblastoma cells in preclinical models. The virus works by selectively replicating within cancer cells, leading to their lysis, while sparing healthy cells. This approach not only directly attacks the tumor but also stimulates an immune response against cancer cells, potentially offering a dual mechanism of action. The study highlights the virus's ability to cross the blood-brain barrier, a significant challenge in brain cancer treatment, and suggests that this could be a promising new avenue for therapy, potentially in combination with other treatments like chemotherapy or immunotherapy.
