Psychology suggests we don’t reason toward truth so much as defend what we already believe: we seek out the facts that confirm us and quietly wave away the rest — the ‘confirmation bias’ baked into how we think

Researchers solved a long-standing mystery behind how a bacterial toxin associated with colorectal cancer damages the colon. The toxin first binds to a receptor called claudin-4, giving it access to attack the cells' protective barrier. After identifying this weak point, the team designed a decoy protein that successfully blocked the toxin in mice. The discovery could pave the way for new therapies to prevent inflammation and colon tumors. Read more â€ș

One number from Microsoft’s June report spread fast: 275. That is how many times, on average, a worker gets interrupted in a day by a meeting, an email, or a chat notification. Spread across normal work hours, that works out to an interruption roughly every two minutes. The figure came from Microsoft’s WorkLab, which published ... Read more Read more â€ș
