the university college of london hospital, as you say, i you? the university college of. hospital, as you say, one of the biggest hospital trusts, very little is happening. it is like a christmas day service inside and thatis christmas day service inside and that is because as we have heard, the consultants up and walked out, unprecedented strike action this week. tomorrow put their consultants and junior doctors will be on strike which has never happened in nhs history. little is able to happen because the consultants who lead the teams, are in charge of thejuniors out there to instruct under the operations, those planned operations like hip and knee replacements. i'm joined by doctor tom dolphin who represents the bma and as an anaesthetist. steve backley said today in future they could change the rules around so many of you coming out to make sure minimum staffing is available in hospital, your response? it is staffing is available in hospital, your response?— your response? it is a bit misleading _ your response? it is a bit misleading of _ your response? it is a bit m

[indiscernible] imran: our guests in moscow is saying this is two subornation is doing a deal with each other. what do you think? >> whatever will be negotiated and decided between russia and north korea is up to those two countries. a lot will be held responsible for the outcomes of any agreements that is possibly forged. if a meeting is indeed going t

now, researchers at university college london are using virtual reality to help detect early signs ofse, before it reaches the more severe stages of dementia. we know that in individuals with dementia diseases, there's two components. there's the biological component, which might be detected by a blood test, but there's also the cognitive — the thinking and the memory and the navigation — component. and that's the problem that we're trying to solve is how do we complement new biological tests with really good cognitive tests that can detect it many years before dementia starts? if you look at the neuroscience of how the disease starts in the brain, it starts in the region that we think is responsible for our ability to navigate. there's also an incredible experience where you get completely immersed in a new environment, and the way we've designed it is a really beautiful open field where you can see mountains, pine trees. so, we're trying to make it as much of a relaxing process as possible. it's time to go into the virtual world and then i'm going to be navigating my way around. yes

cancers that do not respond to chemotherapy , according to new atlas, scientists from duchenne university college london have discovered a new gene that makes head and neck cancer patients resistant to chemotherapy, and found that turning off each of the these can be cancer cells to make them respond to chemotherapy, the scientists were able to suppress this cycle by using a type of fungal toxin and a substance derived from a battery, which are active in most types of human cancer. japan sent a probe to the moon with a research rocket carrying the first japanese probe called slime from the tanga shima space center in the southwest of japan . this smart probe aghili will land on the moon next year. had been in if this mission is successful, japan will be the fifth country to land its probe on us. it is a slime and palm-sized probe and has the ability to change its shape in order to study the evolution of the moon and send its information to the earth. this probe, in cooperation with a the japanese toy company has made australia will launch a robotic lunar rover in 2026 on one of nasa's artemis missions .

the re—analysis of data from gids and university college london hospitals shows that the majority ofthese drugs — for both better and for worse. the original findings used a different methodology and reported there had been "no changes" in the children's wellbeing. before the study began in 2011, young people had to be 16 to receive puberty blockers. but in 2014, nhs england allowed gids to refer children of any age at all for the drugs, provided they'd started puberty. here's hannah barnes. when children are put on puberty blockers, in almost all cases, this leads to cross—sex hormones — and the risks are now becoming clear. sterility, depression, lifelong... using drugs to pause puberty for children questioning their gender has become one of the most controversial and polarising topics of our time. for some, a medical scandal. you go to the professionals and you're like, look, i'm just a parent, i don't know what's going on. can you please help me? and then after a couple of hours, they're on the pathway to help. but for others, life—saving. if you don't give these children help, t

it's university college, london, mac. we have the international energy agencies saying it's still possible to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees celsius. that's the power is target optimistic on you about this. so only thing the most important thing is if we do ever think we can, then we could limits climates to 1.5 degrees. the pull may is what we saying is pushed back in many countries choice. i'll play my own u. k. the probably ministers decided to go back some of the actual push on renewable energy. so i think the international energy authority report is very positive, but it actually assumes that everybody is going to do everything they can to tackle climate change. now we heard about an increase in solar energy production that, that helped with this or kind of help with this. it also nuclear energy. also feature in that assessment is so new to the dust feature in all of the assessments of the future. but it seems to be a small increase in the future. most of the actual renewable energy is going to come from wind is

strategist and how is but i, pennsylvania thomas gift director at the center on the us politics university college london. and also in washington lane came up funding direct to up a center for a tech effective public management at brookings, available and welcome to each of you. it's almost as talk with you because the u. s . has had more than 20 shutdowns in the last 40 years, we might be forgiven. so thinking here we go again, the same old story, but this time it does feel a little different because it's quite hard to see how it can be resolved and what a final bill might look like as well. i think that you're absolutely right, but this isn't anything necessarily new. and as you know that there have been 20 gaps in federal funding since 1976. and of course most of these have happened under divided government. so i think that it's important to have a little bit of context whenever we're kinda viewing the situation. but at the same time, it does seem like we're at a real impasse now with polarization. as significant as it is, it is very difficult to see how these 2 sides come to an agreement. and to a la

and i remember talking to someone who taught at university college london, a very good university.g. and i said, why are you laughing? and she said, none of my students has read vanity fair for 30 years. and i said, why? is it sort of politically wrong? no, it's too long. did you use a library? yes, idid. ilived... we were brought up in a village near newbury in the south of england. and i used to go to the town library with my mum and there was a travelling library in a van that used to come to our village. i had a rather insatiable appetite for adventure stories. this was not high literature when you're nine or ten, but ijust wanted more and more excitement, and i got it a lot from libraries. part of the reason i'm asking this is a survey by the national literacy trust says one in seven state primary schools across the uk does not have a designated library space, and over three quarters of a million children in the uk do not have access to books that enable better educational outcomes and greater wellbeing. i mean, what do you make of that? what do you think the impact of that mu

let�*s speak to mark miodownik, a materials scientist based at university college london. details because they are confidential but i can tell you that lots of companies are hitting the same problem. the problem is this, you start with a product that you have got and you find that, in their case, they make lego bricks from abs which is a very hard stiff plastic and does the job very well for them and has done for many years. that is the key to the product, the fact that they can fit together and don�*t twist in your hands. it�*s the key to the product working. they want to shift to another plastic, so they want the plastic pet which is what we used to make drinks bottles out of but with the same qualities. they want to make them stiffer because they are quite loose in your hands and they want to make it harder. so they have to add something to that plastic to make it fit the bill. that cost money, every time you fiddle around with the chemistry you are doing processing and that is mostly going to create co2 emissions. there is something like a life cycle assessment which i

now, researchers at university college london are using virtual reality to help detect early signs ofe mountains, you can see pine trees. so we're trying to make it as much of a relaxing process as possible. it's time to go into the virtual world, and then i'm going to be navigating my way around. yes, exactly. from a starting point, the user has to follow the cones, and then information from the virtual landscape is removed and they need to find their way back to where they started from. and this is the controller, and you will only have i to use the trigger button, which is the one... - that one? yeah. basically, you are immersed in this virtual environment. i there's the one. i'm just going to walk towards the cliff. and as soon as you reach, you stop. i i need to remember this spot to come back to later. i'll now go to two. and three. oh, i'm somewhere else. what's happening now? so basically, this time we kept all the ground information, i as you can notice. yeah. but we removed completely all the distant landmarks. i ok, so this is easier for distance, but harder for direction.
