Using virtual reality to diagnose Alzheimer’s disease | BBC News
Scientists are testing the possibility of using virtual reality (VR) to help diagnose Alzheimer’s disease.
Pen and paper tests date back to the 1940s and are still one of the markers that may be used for diagnosis today.
With no single definitive way to confirm the disease, a combination of different tests and investigations are usually carried out by health professionals.
Researchers, at University College London, are testing if VR can help confirm an early diagnosis of the disease before it reaches the severe stages of dementia.

A new personalised vaccine given in combination with a drug has stopped skin cancer returning in patients during a trial, representing a potentially watershed moment in cancer treatment. Scientists used mRNA technology, which was used for some Covid-19 vaccines.
But that technology – and vaccines more generally – have become increasingly controversial in the United States since the Covid-19 pandemic. The Health Secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr, is a vaccine sceptic.
In August 2025 cancelled $500m (£376m) in funding for mRNA vaccine research. The move impacted 22 projects being led by major pharmaceutical companies, including Pfizer and Moderna, for vaccines against bird flu and other viruses, according to Kennedy’s department.
We speak to Tom Whipple, host of the BBC’s Inside Science programme, about the science of this new vaccine. And we ask how funding cuts for vaccine research could impact health outcomes not just for Americans, but for the world.

Historic first as Chinese robot beats Usain Bolt’s 100m world record at Beijing games | BBC News
A Chinese humanoid robot has run 100 metres in 9.39 seconds in a preliminary heat at the World Humanoid Robot Games in Beijing, surpassing the men’s world record time held by Jamaican sprinting great Usain Bolt.
Tiangong Ultra, developed by the Beijing Humanoid Robot Innovation Center, won its heat at the opening of the games’ second edition. The robot overtook smartphone maker Honor’s Lightning near the finish after falling behind early in the race. Lightning finished in 9.47 seconds, also faster than the 9.58-second record Bolt set at the 2009 World Athletics Championships in Berlin.
The results marked a remarkable improvement from last year’s inaugural games, when Tiangong Ultra won the 100 metres in 21.50 seconds. Tiangong also won the world’s first humanoid robot half-marathon, held in Beijing last year.
The 100 metres is among 51 events at the games, which include football, dancing and contests to complete industrial tasks.
China is promoting humanoid robots as a strategic emerging industry, with policymakers and companies betting that advances in AI and hardware will accelerate their use in manufacturing, logistics and consumer applications.
Investor enthusiasm for the sector was underscored recently when shares in Unitree, China’s best-known humanoid robot maker, jumped more than five fold in its Shanghai trading debut, giving the company a market value of about $50 billion.
This year’s games have drawn 2,056 robots from 666 teams across 16 countries and six continents, up from 280 teams at the inaugural event.

There was a time when sleeping was simple – but now, it’s a bit more complicated.
Sleep has rules – there’s the right bedtime, the right temperature, and the right amount of deep sleep.
It’s not just something we do, it’s something we measure.
But is all this number punching actually helping us rest?

Food is by fare the most deadly contributor. Processed food! High amounts of sugar, starch, conservatives and seed oils. It’s a disaster for the metabolism.
It causes high blood sugar and spikes your insulin levels – and because Alzheimer is type 3 diabetes, this combo is deadly.

(Daniel 9:27 was fulfilled on August 13 2023 also when the woman began travailing in birth to fulfill the time of the gentiles for the mystery of Revelation 12 to be completed, Daniel 12:1 next, three riders released within 2020 and 2023. These words are true and worthy, he who has ears to hear let him hear, and blessed is he who understands.)
“And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?”
Gospel of Matthew, chapter 24, verse 3.
“And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them. But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by. Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.”
Gospel of Luke, chapter 21, verse 8 to 11.
“All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.”
Gospel of Matthew, chapter 24, verse 8 to 10.
“And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.”
Gospel of Luke, chapter 21, verse 25 to 28.
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.”
Gospel of John, chapter 3, verse 16 to 18.
“For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.”
First Corinthians, chapter 15, verse 3 to 6.
“Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee.”
Acts, chapter 8, verse 22.
“Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”
Gospel of John, chapter 3, verse 3.
“From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”
Gospel of Matthew, chapter 4, verse 17.
“After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight.”
Hosea, chapter 6, verse 2.
“But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.”
Second Peter, chapter 3, verse 8.
“knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, and saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.”
Second Peter, chapter 3, verse 3 to 4.
“For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.”
First Thessalonians chapter 5, verse 3.
“For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.”
First Thessalonians, chapter 4, verse 16 to 17.
“in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.”
First Corinthians, chapter 15, verse 52.
“I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left. Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.”
Gospel of Luke, chapter 17, verse 34 to 36.

Donate to whom?
Like animals' instincts, we can't create our own thoughts, all Good thoughts are from God, all bad thoughts are from bad men.
Regardless your background/ideology/belief/religion/party/country/culture, all your selfless serving/loving/treating others as yourself thoughts & deeds are from God, all your selfish/jealous/bully/rob/colonize/sacrifice others for yourself/become #1 thoughts are from bad men..
Regardless u are a communist or a capitalist, if u die to save other's lives, then u are Jesus=God's kid, if u destroy others for yourself, then u are Devil's kid & u are absolutely NOT God's kid.
We should donate to Jesus=>use money/medals/advertisements to glorify Jesus-like people&deeds: as long as we are not glorifying ourselves then God will like it. If Jesus-like spirit & deeds can be recognized & praised, then more Jesus will emerge: Jesus did nothing but gave free healings & resurrections to disabled/sick/dead people, & sacrificed his own life for others. If all become Jesus then there will be no poverty & matches selling little girl filled miserable world but pleasure & peace filled paradise.
It is very strange that western media never praise/promote Jesus like good deeds & good people, but always advertise & promote selfish narcissistic self-made Judas/billionaires/stars/dissidents/war-lords/etc.
Like hospitals, US charities only treat symptoms not root causes & trapped in a self defeating loop: Charities are encouraging u become rich so u have money to give to the poor who are produced by the rich=>Charities are serving Devil by promoting money lovers.
This is God's self-fulfilling cycle: Trees with lots sweet fruits attract lots animals, who eat & poop/fertilize the tree & spread their seeds all over the world, fruitless or poisonous fruiting trees have no animals' visits, so no fertilizers & no spreads of their seeds thus they die & vanish forever=>so we should be like birds singing praises for & fund Jesus like good men & deeds, our donations to good men are birds' poop fertilizers. Communists always greatly promote Jesus like good man & oppress self-promoting hypocrites=warn men of bright poisonous holly trees, but West is doing the opposite=>Communists are doing everything right but West is doing everything wrong.
We should donate to the families of those who died in saving others in natural disasters&pandemics/Prestigious university graduates who work as teachers/party secretaries/leaders in remote villages.
Poverty is just a symptom, can be caused by many reasons, if due to arrogance/lazy/addictions, giving them money is making them worse.
I am sure everyone can learn Chinese medicine by watching this free fun TV:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZxEF-wV5tQ&t=14s
善言天者，必有验于人；善言古者，必有合于今；善言人者，必有厌于己.
Learn from God&history&others to benefit u & your people.
Because Chinese are good at humbly seeking God & learning from God & history & others, so God gave Chinese language & culture&medicine&civilization as gifts.

Why hasn't the BBC reported this tragic news? Nearly 200 Christians were massacred by muslims and 300 were injured in approximately 26 Nigerian villages during the Christmas period. More than 52,000 Christians have now been murdered by muslims in Nigeria and last year, 5,014 Christians were killed there.
More than 360 million Christians are suffering high levels of persecution for their faith in the world today, that is 1 out of 7 Christians. Since 2015, 18,000 churches have been set ablaze.
If the religions had been the other way round, would this massacre have promptly appeared in the BBC's headlines?
