Gene Doping and the U of A Scientists Building the Test to Catch It (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Elite sports may soon face a form of cheating that requires new detection approaches. Instead of taking a banned substance that clears the body within days, athletes might alter their own DNA with a single injection, rewriting genes that govern muscle growth or how the body uses oxygen. The change could be permanent and, with today's testing methods, almost invisible. That scenario, known as gene doping, is still science fiction. No athlete has done it effectively, according to experts, and the
A Panda Named Pico: The Award-Winning AI Two New Razorbacks Built (opens the original)
Read excerpt
On a Chromebook screen in a Bentonville classroom, a cartoon panda blinks and waits. It does not interrupt. It does not get tired. When a child who stutters needs 10 seconds to finish a sentence, the panda listens first, then answers patiently.

Growing up, he watched his cousin with autism whose stutter sometimes made it dif

The Artist and the Engineer: Shae Threlfall Paints Her Path to a Cambridge Ph.D. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Shae Threlfall started her day the same way every morning for months: wake up, scroll her phone and look for a message from across the ocean. One December morning at home in Springdale, her ritual came up empty again. But something told her to take one more glance before class. There it was. She had been accepted to pursue a doctorate in mechanical engineering at the University of Cambridge, one of the world's oldest universities. Threlfall was thrilled, but the cost was too much. She was determ
