Carnival of Tomorrow

The Carnival of Tomorrow is up. I found these especially interesting:

• A new treatment for certain cancers, notably neuroblastoma multiformae. I lost a loved one to neuroblastoma multiforme, an extremely agressive brain tumor, some years ago; by coincidence, the principal investigator, John Sampson, is an old acquaintance from my time at Duke.


• The Whole Brain Atlas, a visual atlas of brain imaging.


• A surprising example of real progress toward the flying car we've been promised for so long — and an example of its use that, perhaps, makes a better case for flying cars than The Jetsons ever did.

Read the, as they say, whole thing.
