There's no shortage of apps and technology that claim to shift the brain into a "theta" state - said to help with relaxation, inward focus and sleep. But what exactly does it mean to change one's "mental state"? And is that even possible? For now, the evidence remains murky. But our understanding of the brain is growing exponentially as our methods of investigation improve.

Drug makers are now leveraging the power of Artificial Intelligence in the search for new disease-fighting medicines. This innovative approach utilizes natural language processing technology to analyze and synthesize proteins, which are essential components of life and drugs alike. By utilizing natural language processing, the same AI technology used by OpenAI's ChatGPT for generating human-like responses, biological codes can be represented with a series of letters - similar to how search queries and emails are represented. This technological advancement promises to revolutionize drug discovery processes that have traditionally relied on laborious trial-and-error methods.
