13 hours ago Nathan Newby, a hero hospital patient who stopped a “lone-wolf terrorist” from detonating a bomb at Leeds hospital’s maternity wing, says the would-be attacker “asked for a cuddle.” Mohammad Farooq was jailed last year for life with a minimum term of 37 years after taking a home-made pressure cooker bomb into St James’s Hospital, intending to “kill as many nurses as possible”. Mr Newby will receive the George Medal, the second-highest civilian gallantry award, for his bravery.

Abstract The earliest morphologically identifiable dogs are from Europe and date to at least 14,000 years ago1,2,3,4,5, although early remains are also found in other regions. The origin of early dogs in Europe, and their relationships to other dogs, has remained elusive in the absence of genome-wide data.

Whole-genome ancestry of an Old Kingdom Egyptian - Nature

Abstract Ancient Egyptian society flourished for millennia, reaching its peak during the Dynastic Period (approximately 3150–30 bce). However, owing to poor DNA preservation, questions about regional interconnectivity over time have not been addressed because whole-genome sequencing has not yet been possible. Here we sequenced a 2× coverage whole genome from an adult male Egyptian excavated at Nuwayrat (Nuerat, نويرات). Radiocarbon dated to 2855–2570 cal.
