Low doses of propylparaben - a chemical preservative found in food, drugs and cosmetics - can alter pregnancy-related changes in the breast in ways that may lessen the protection against breast cancer that pregnancy hormones normally convey, according to University of Massachusetts Amherst research.
The findings, published March 16 in the journal
Endocrinology, suggest that propylparaben is an endocrine-disrupting chemical that interferes with the actions of hormones, says environmental health scientist Laura Vandenberg, the study s senior author. Endocrine disruptors can affect organs sensitive to hormones, including the mammary gland in the breast that produces milk.

AMHERST, Mass. – As Gov. Charlie Baker mulls running for a possible third term, approval for the Republican governor has eroded during the COVID pandemic, according to a new University of Massachusetts Amherst / WCVB poll released today.
Soaring high in August 2020 with a 78% approval rating, Baker now has 52% approving of the job he’s done in the State House, while those disapproving of his job have nearly doubled from 20% to 39%. Within his own party, he holds just a 38% approval rating, whereas 61% of Democrats and 43% of independents approve of his performance. Only 32% of Trump voters give Baker positive marks, compared to 62% of Biden voters. Baker also holds a higher approval rating among non-whites (55%) than among whites (51%).

RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C. Joint Army- and Air Force-funded researchers have taken a step toward building a fault-tolerant quantum computer, which could provide enhanced data processing capabilities.
Quantum computing has the potential to deliver new computing capabilities for how the Army plans to fight and win in what it calls multi-domain operations. It may also advance materials discovery, artificial intelligence, biochemical engineering and many other disciplines needed for the future military; however, because qubits, the fundamental building blocks of quantum computers, are intrinsically fragile, a longstanding barrier to quantum computing has been effective implementation of quantum error correction.
