Just 7,000 steps a day cuts risk of health issues - study
Everyone targets 10,000 steps - but a lower tally could reduce the risk of serious health issues like cancer, dementia and heart disease, a study suggests.

Telomere-to-telomere DNA sequencing is set to transform the field of human genetics in coming years. For a flavour of what's coming, see this exciting work on nearly complete genomes of 65 individuals from diverse populations, out today in @nature.com by @glennislogsdon.bsky.social & colleagues. 👇🧬🧪

It's likely that different species of plant-eating dinosaurs 🦕 herded together for protection like many modern animals do - and now we have some tentative evidence for this, in a set of 76-million-year-old tracks 👣 discovered in Canada 🧪

Remarkable set of tracks suggests different dinosaurs herded together
Late Cretaceous dinosaur tracks found in Canada might have been made by different species walking together, but the evidence is far from conclusive

Poilievre was rejected by voters.
Then Conservatives gave a golden parachute to push an elected MP to quit his post so Poilievre could win a safe seat.
Now he is demanding the government change the rules so ordinary Canadians can't challenge him.
