One fearless traveller is Maryanne Kerubo, a Kenyan student in Germany.
While Covid-19 was devastating the world and turning everything in it on its head, Maryanne’s wanderlust was piqued.
She took the deep dive, making expeditions across Germany, France and The Netherlands in a manner that even the most daring excursionists would cringe to imagine.
It is fair to say that travelling to Europe, the hotbed of Covid-19, deep in lockdown was almost thoughtless. Yet it is equally fair to say that while people have been living in dread of the pandemic for months, not everyone was scared. At least not too scared to put their travel plans on ice.
TORONTO A new study suggests an anti-diarrhea medication could be effective in treating an aggressive and deadly type of brain cancer. A research group in at Goethe University Frankfurt found that the drug loperamide, sometimes sold under the brand name Imodium, can be used to induce cell death in glioblastoma cell lines. Glioblastoma, or glioblastoma multiforme, is a fast-growing and invasive glioma, famous for being resistant to most treatments including chemotherapy. Tragically Hip frontman Gord Downie and former NDP foreign affairs critic Paul Dewar both died of the disease. Symptoms include headaches, decreased sensation, seizures, progressive memory decline, and personality deficit.

Abstract:
Anyone entering the world of quantum physics must prepare themself for quite a few things unknown in the everyday world: Noble gases form compounds, atoms behave like particles and waves at the same time and events that in the macroscopic world exclude each other occur simultaneously.
