Theoretical physicists propose a pioneering experiment to observe macroscopic quantum superposition states in a nanoscale glass bead by allowing it to evolve in a non-optical ("dark") potential created by electrostatic or magnetic forces, thus avoiding the limitations imposed by laser cooling and minimizing the impact of low-frequency noise and systematic errors. This experiment, aligned with current developments in experimental labs, is expected to provide valuable insights into preparing macroscopic quantum superposition states.

Researchers have developed a nanoparticle-based drug technology that uses mRNA to prevent and treat peanut allergies in mice. The treatment involves a protein fragment called an epitope that is modified to train the body against the full force of the allergen. The nanoparticle uses mRNA to encode multiple epitopes and is aimed at the liver, where antigen-presenting cells live. The treatment can be adapted for other allergies and autoimmune disorders and may help treat type 1 diabetes. Clinical trials with humans could begin in three years.
