Як CRISPR лікує невиліковне — революція редагування генів, що змінює медицину

У 2012 році Дженніфер Дудна та Еммануель Шарпантьє опублікували знакову статтю, в якій показали, що CRISPR/Cas9 можна перепризначити для редагування ДНК у пробірках. У 2013 році лабораторії під керівництвом Фен Чжана продемонстрували, що CRISPR може редагувати гени всередині живих еукаріотичних клітин. У

  • Qorvo Valuation Revisited After Mizuho Downgrade on Smartphone Chip Demand
    October 22, 2025, 7:36 AM EDT. Qorvo (QRVO) stock has faced a Mizuho downgrade amid expectations of softer smartphone chip demand, with concerns over iPhone shipments and China headwinds. Even after a 34% YTD rise, the 1-year TSR is still negative, highlighting that momentum is improving but longer-term holders remain underwater. Valuation remains contested: shares sit below some price targets, forcing a debate whether Qorvo is truly undervalued or simply priced for the next growth leg. The most widely cited narrative pins fair value just above the last close, underpinned by accelerating 5G/6G adoption, strong design wins in flagship phones, Wi-Fi 7/8 deployments, and higher RF content per device, implying multi-year revenue growth and margin expansion. Risks include reliance on a single customer and potential diversification setbacks. The stock also trades at a lofty P/E (~107x) versus the sector average (~37x).
  • Robinhood Could Join the $1 Trillion Club in 20 Years: A Fintech Path to the Trillion-Dollar Club
    October 22, 2025, 7:34 AM EDT. Robinhood Markets is positioned as a fintech disruptor aiming to join the ranks of $1 trillion tech giants like Nvidia, Meta Platforms, Amazon, and Alphabet. With a current market cap around $117B, it would need a CAGR of roughly 11.6% for two decades to hit $1 trillion. The platform has expanded beyond trading into mobile-first financial services, offering commission-free trading, fractional shares, no minimum balances, and a growing Gold premium service. Demand from younger investors underpins recent momentum: total platform assets reached about $279B, funded customers rose to 26.5M, and Gold subscribers hit 3.5M. If growth accelerates, Robinhood could redefine access to markets, though it faces regulatory and competitive hurdles.

  • Monday's AWS Outage Highlights AI's Cloud Dependency and the Risk of a Single Point of Failure
    October 22, 2025, 7:30 AM EDT. The Monday AWS outage exposed how few players control most of the internet's core infrastructure. With about 37% of the cloud market held by AWS and the trio of AWS, Microsoft, and Google serving around 70%, the internet risks becoming a single point of failure during outages. As AI tools become more central to work and life, reliance on cloud-based services could intensify, including AI agents used in healthcare, finance, and business processes. A McKinsey survey found 78% of firms already use AI in at least one function, up 55% from last year. Experts like Tim DeStefano warn that if decisions depend on inaccessible AI, performance could suffer. The industry must improve reliability while navigating consolidation and AI-driven demand.
  • Is Your iPhone 17 Pro Turning Pink? The Right Cleaning Tricks to Stop Color Shifts
    October 22, 2025, 7:28 AM EDT. Apple's switch to anodized aluminum on the iPhone 17 Pro has sparked color-shift chatter, especially with the Cosmic Orange finish. The issue isn't just the dye; the porous surface can absorb color and be compromised if the seal fails, allowing discoloration to worsen. Hydrogen peroxide-used in some cleaning/sterilization steps-can cause fading or discoloration after a few cycles, helping explain pink frames. Apple's guidance is clear: avoid bleach and hydrogen peroxide, and clean with wipes containing 60% isopropyl alcohol or 75% ethyl alcohol. For routine care, a damp, lint-free cloth suffices. In short, keep the seal intact and follow Apple's cleaning tips to prevent further color changes.
