Specialized extracellular matrix structures known as perineuronal nets surround the soma and dendrites of many CNS neurons. Fawcett and colleagues provide an update on our current understanding of perineuronal net composition, formation and functional roles in brain function and disease.

Announcing The Stargate Project https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/01/announcing-the-stargate-project https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/01/announcing-the-stargate-project#respond Wed, 22 Jan 2025 02:30:01 +0000 https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/01/announcing-the-stargate-project

The Stargate Project is a new company which intends to invest $500 billion over the next four years building new AI infrastructure for OpenAI in the United States. We will begin deploying $100 billion immediately. This infrastructure will secure American leadership in AI, create hundreds of thousands of American jobs, and generate massive economic benefit for the entire world. This project will not only support the re-industrialization of the United States but also provide a strategic capability to protect the national security of America and its allies.

The initial equity funders in Stargate are SoftBank, OpenAI, Oracle, and MGX. SoftBank and OpenAI are the lead partners for Stargate, with SoftBank having financial responsibility and OpenAI having operational responsibility. Masayoshi Son will be the chairman.

Arm, Microsoft, NVIDIA, Oracle, and OpenAI are the key initial technology partners. The buildout is currently underway, starting in Texas, and we are evaluating potential sites across the country for more campuses as we finalize definitive agreements.

Scientists succeed in trapping molecules to perform quantum operations for the first time https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/01/scientists-succeed-in-trapping-molecules-to-perform-quantum-operations-for-the-first-time https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/01/scientists-succeed-in-trapping-molecules-to-perform-quantum-operations-for-the-first-time#respond Wed, 22 Jan 2025 02:23:23 +0000 https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/01/scientists-succeed-in-trapping-molecules-to-perform-quantum-operations-for-the-first-time

Molecules haven’t been used in quantum computing, even though they have the potential to make the ultra-high-speed experimental technology even faster. Their rich internal structures were seen as too complicated, too delicate, too unpredictable to manage, so smaller particles have been used.

But a team of Harvard scientists has succeeded for the first time in trapping molecules to perform . This feat was accomplished by using ultra-cold polar molecules as qubits, or the fundamental units of information that power the technology. The findings, recently published in the journal Nature, open new realms of possibility for harnessing the complexity of molecular structures for future applications.

“As a field we have been trying to do this for 20 years,” said senior co-author Kang-Kuen Ni, Theodore William Richards Professor of Chemistry and professor of physics. “And we’ve finally been able to do it.”
