Researchers at Uppsala University have adapted Cell Painting, a widely used imaging method in drug discovery, to look at individual cells inside small 3D clusters of cancer cells. Two drugs that looked almost identical in ordinary flat cell cultures behaved differently in 3D, and the team linked the difference to how each drug switches on the cell's p53 stress response.

This week's SmackDown put a heavy emphasis on the women's division, with three out of the four scheduled matches featuring the division.

Italian climber Pietro Vidi has just made the second ascent of Drifter’s Escape 5.15a (9a+) trad in Squamish. The route was established by Connor Herson in July 2025 after two seasons of effort. Herson proposed a grade of 5.15a, and Vidi has confirmed that proposal. This makes Drifter’s Escape the world’s first trad climb with a confirmed grade of 5.15a. Vidi sent it in 15 sessions and 10 lead attempts. “The line is absolutely gorgeous, following two gently overhanging, parallel cracks towering above the city, offering some of the sickest grips around,” said Vidi. “The process was a pretty tough one. It’s been a while since I’ve put this many sessions into a project, and as usual, I got totally obsessed. This time was especially all-consuming. It felt like the Drifter was watching me from every angle of town. Everywhere I went, I could see the Chief and that curving white panel staring back at me.”
