A team of researchers working at the Francis Crick Institute has developed a way to find mutations in similar genome regions of cancer samples. In their paper published in the journal Nature Biotechnology, the group describes using a machine-learning algorithm to spot cancerous mutations in non-unique parts of the genome.

Using ART-XC and eROSITA telescopes onboard the Spectrum Roentgen Gamma (SRG) mission, an international team of astronomers has detected a new pulsar. The newly found object, designated SRGA J204318.2+443815, turns out to be a long-period, faint X-ray pulsar in a distant binary system. The finding is reported in a paper published July 12 on arXiv.org.
