Thiol Enhancing Yeast in Beer Brewing
This week I take a look at thiol enhancing yeast and its application in brewing fruity IPAs. Thoils and the Modern IPA With IPAs making up over half of US Craft beer production, there has been a huge surge in interest in understanding hop aromatic compounds, including both hop oils and thiols. Thiols are a tiny fraction of hop oils but play an oversized role in generating aromatics in a finished beer, particularly the fruity flavors desired in many IPA styles like Hazy/New England IPAs. We’

New Yeast Features, Pitch Rates and Yeast Starters in BeerSmith 4
Today I present some of the major yeast feature changes in BeerSmith 4. BeerSmith 4 is the new desktop version of BeerSmith. Yeast Packages, Milliliters and Grams When I first wrote BeerSmith back in 2003, it was primarily written for homebrewers. As a result, the program used “packs” of yeast as the primary measure as the standard back then among homebrewers was a smack pack, small vial or sachet of dry yeast. I never imagined that someday thousands of professional breweries might b

Improved Brewing Features in BeerSmith 4
Today I take a look at just a few of new brewing features in BeerSmith 4. This is part of my series of articles on the new BeerSmith 4 release on 19 March 2026. Improved Session Handling Its not uncommon for brewers to brew the same beer several times, making only small changes for each batch. Since BeerSmith stores all of the data in a recipe, basically the recipe itself records all the session data. While we’ve had a “Copy to Brew Log” feature to help you store previous beers

What are Hop Thiols and Why Do They Matter in Beer?
This week I cover the major hop thiols and how they can be used to increase the aromatic and fruity flavors in beers like IPA. What are Hop Thiols? Hop thiols, also known as mercaptans are sulfur based organic compounds that are highly aromatic. Thiols are a tiny percentage ( 1%) of the essential oils in hops, but they pack a big punch. They exist in a wide variety of products including fruit, hops, grapes and even grain. Scientifically they were first identified in the wine making industry whe

Some Limitations on Whirlpool Hopping for Beer Brewing
This week I look at some of the advantages and disadvantages of whirlpool hopping in an effort to better understand the technique. Whirlpool vs Dry Hopping vs Boil Hops Its important that we start with a short discussion of the three major hop methods. Most brewers are familiar with boil hops, which are primarily used to add bitterness to the beer. Whirlpool and dry hops are not added for bitterness, but instead are used to preserve delicate aroma oils and flavors. Whirlpool hops are added at th

Washing/Rinsing Yeast – How to Harvest and Reuse Brewing Yeast
This week I take a look at how you can harvest and reuse brewing yeast from one batch to pitch it in a new batch of beer. Reusing yeast is one of the oldest brewing techniques, as civilizations started culturing and reusing yeast for bread, beer, and wine thousands of years ago. Homebrewers have a long history of reusing yeast as well since many of us are frugal and enjoy tinkering. Washing vs Rinsing Yeast Though the two terms are often used interchangeably, washing and rinsing yeast are techni

Sulfites as a Preservative Sulfites, usually in the form of Potassium Metabisulfite, are widely used as an additive in wine, mead and cider making. Sulfites also naturally occur as a result of the fermentation process. Sulfur dioxide, often noticeable in many lagers, is an example of a sulfite compound produced during fermentation. Sulfites as a group help to p

Review: Michter’s US-1 Barrel Strength Sour Mash Whiskey 2026
Michter’s launched its first barrel strength product, Barrel Strength Rye, in 2015 and followed it up not long after with a barrel strength offering of their core US-1 Bourbon. While both Barrel Strength expressions have reappeared over the years (the rye more frequently than the bourbon), Michter’s Toasted series has been the more consistent, non age-stated limited release for nearly a decade now. Fans of the distillery could be forgiven for believing they’d seen all the new Barrel Strength exp

Review: Wines of Larkmead, 2026 Releases
We’re longtime fans of California’s Larkmead and are pleased to revisit the blue chip operation’s three latest releases, arriving in time for 2026’s summer festivities. All are bold reds so if you don’t get to them this year, a few years of cellar slumber will likely do them all some good. 2023 Larkmead Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley – This estate cab is 100% cabernet sauvignon this year, a stark departure from last year’s bottling, which was 18% caberne

Review: Gambit No. 6 Bourbon
Chip Tate, the mastermind behind Balcones whiskey and now a sort of whiskey ronin, just arrived with his latest project, Gambit No. 6. Why number 6? Not because there are five gambits before it, but because it’s a 6 year old Kentucky bourbon that features 6 different finishes: in wine (Sonoma chardonnay and Sonoma cabernet sauvignon), apple brandy, oloroso sherry, muscatel, and Tokaji casks. If that sounds like a lot, it is. But that, as Tate says, is “the gambit.” Well, let

Review: Khee 38 Soju
Soju (Korea’s rendition of Japanese shochu) is typically bottled at 25% abv or less, but Khee 38 hits a much higher proof point — 38% abv, to be exact, commanding much more of your attention than the typical mass market offering. Also available in a 22 proof variety, Khee 38 is distilled from rice in Seoul and can be used as an alternative to vodka or white rum in any cocktail recipe. We recently received a sample to review. Thoughts follow. 375ml bottles are also available. Khee 38

Review: Fosforo Blanco Tequila
Fosforo is joining a growing list of mezcal producers hoping to grab a piece of the much larger tequila market. It’s admittedly a bold move jumping into the overcrowded world of tequila, but brands like Fosforo seem confident that their experience with the more artisanal production methods required of mezcal will set their tequila project apart. For Fosforo, the emphasis is primarily on terroir and the belief that “geography shapes great spirits.” While most legacy tequilas source their agave fr

Review: Russell’s Reserve Bourbon 13 Years Old (Updated 2026)

You’re getting a 13 year old cask-strength bourbon, available for a limited time. Here’s a bit of the story behind it. Straight up and straight out of the Commonwealth of Kentucky comes one of the boldest, yet smooth, limited-edition bourbons ever. Honoring the family ties that bind,

Review: Blue Note Wheated Bourbon
Memphis-based Blue Note recently added a small batch wheated bourbon to their growing lineup of contract-distilled whiskeys, all of which age in a uniquely humid Tennessee climate near the intersection of the Wolf and Mississippi rivers.

Review: Oaklore Story Series 2026 – Old Fashioned and Port Cask Finished Bourbon
A bourbon’s story doesn’t necessarily end when it leaves its original barrel. Increasingly, distillers are turning to secondary maturation to add another chapter, one that can reshape the whiskey beneath it. That idea sits at the heart of Oaklore’s Story Series. Built around the belief that every barrel has a story worth telling, Oaklore Distilling has gained attention for its four-grain bourbons, rye whiskeys, and inventive finishing programs. In April 2026, the distillery rel

Out of Fort Worth comes another experimental release from TX Whiskey, the 16th total in their series, and the second so far this year. We previously reviewed Experimental Series #15, which was a rye/bourbon blend with the latter portion finished in Vino de Naranja barrels. The latest release is a Texas straight rye whiskey, aged for seven years and bottled at a “full proof” of 120, or 60% abv. (Generally, “full proof” refers to a bottling abv that matches the whiskey̵

Review: Heaven Hill Deatsville Bourbon 13 Years Old
Heaven Hill‘s Deatsville campus is on the verge of being decommissioned, so if you want the chance to taste whiskey from these rickhouses — and only from these rickhouses — you better act fast. This 13 year old offering is drawn from “one of the most distinctive aging sites in the distillery’s 90-year history.” It’s a standard Heaven Hill bourbon — 78% corn, 10% rye, and 12% malted barley — that spent 13 years on the third floor of Rickhouse AA.

Book Review: The Tequila Bible
There is a particular kind of book that doesn’t just crowd shelves at home or in the food section of your local bookshop. It coats the tongue and makes you wonder if you are the kind of person deserving to be gently lowered into a vat of mash and left there until you agree that mash bill and terroir matter, and you can, in fact, taste the difference. Bourbon has had this problem for over a decade now. It has inspired not only devotion but industrious reverence fostering antics bordering on cult

Review: Rums of Spinnaker, 2026 Releases
As far as I can tell, Spinnaker is the only rum company based in Austin, Texas (it’s also the smallest), where Drinkhacker HQ currently resides. It’s not a distiller, mind you, but an independent bottler, very much in the vein of Holmes Cay and LM V. Spinnaker has a clear focus, taking single barrels of premium rum, bottling them all at full proof while providing complete information on their provenance. Spinnaker’s bottles are unique in that they contain loads of production in

Review: Sagrantino Wines of Messina Hof, 2026 Releases
Sagrantino is a grape that genuinely humbles. Not in a pretentious, wine-clown kind of way, but more like the way a long hike in midday July heat humbles: you think you’re prepared, and then somewhere around mile three, there’s an epiphany that in no way do you have business being out there. That’s Sagrantino: dense, tannic and aggressively structured, especially when it’s young. You don’t casually sip it in its youthful stage. It’s more of a negotiation. It originates in

Review: El Tequileno Reposado Gran Reserva
What makes a reposado and reposado gran reserva? El Tequileno‘s latest repo is aged for at least 8 months in American oak and is blended with a small amount of anejo. That’s distinguished from the distillery’s standard reposado, which is aged for 3 months, and its Reposado Rare bottling, which spends 6 years in a mammoth cask instead of a smaller barrel. (El Tequileno’s Anejo Gran Reserva is, you guessed it, blended with a little extra anejo stock, continuing the theme.)

Review: FreeAF NA Espresso Martini
On a surface level, FreeAF Espresso Martini can be interpreted as either a promise or a dare. Freedom from alcohol, but also from whatever joyful, slightly disreputable physics making the real thing such a classic cocktail. This is a drink that, in its original form, rests squarely at the center of need and impulse: a jolt of coffee, a hit of vodka, a kind of glossy sheen feeling both classy and grown up, but also slightly ill-advised. So what happens when the alcohol is stripped out and everyth

Ask someone to describe the décor of a traditional pub and they might well mention horse brasses. Horse brasses are yellow-metal plates or plaques originally used to decorate horse harnesses. In pubs, they’re often nailed to the wall or displayed on black leather straps known as ‘martingales’. But why have they historically been a go-to item for the pub designer and decorator? According to the National Horse Brass Society the “pendant type” of horse brass most often seen in pubs beca

All things to all people: the recipe for a busy pub
The Langton, one of our local pubs, always seems to be busy. The trick seems to be that it does a little bit of everything, and appeals to everybody.

A Philosophy of Pizza Napoletanismo (Part 11: Art and Passion)
The Ingredient of “passion” §1. Passion: In Part 1, I stipulated that making traditional Neapolitan pizza as a culinary achievement and art requires “passion”. Further, I set forth, in part 10, that artistic creation fundamentally requires artists harmonizing their “passions” with “reason”—mastering their impulses, and that “mastering their passions [is] pertinent to a suffering that breeds strength and depth of soul”.

Its tradition remains.” This is a puzzling statement made by Sen. Leone; I am not sure how to interpret it. Does he mean that the Neapolitan pizza never underwent any development and diversification from its earlier forms—that it fell as a complete package from the womb of time? Surely, every time-honored

Heading towards her second decade as a blues phenomenon, Kansas City guitarist/vocalist Samantha Fish’s Paper Doll (Live at the Bijou) asserts her veteran status with a blast of high-octane grunge. Over her career, Fish has explored a range of styles, from the country Americana of 2017’s (fantastic) Belle of the West to the trashy raunch-rock of 2021’s (also fantastic) Faster. Live, though, Fish tends to hew closer to those blues roots. This is adamantly not a weakness;

“Infrastructure” is defined as the basic physical and organizational structures and facilities (e.g. buildings, roads, power supplies) needed for the operation of a society or enterprise. When most hear this term, they think of building and maintaining the many things that are necessary for a functioning city, state, neighborhood or country. In New Orleans, our infrastructure is in obvious horrible shape: roads have potholes that take almost three months to repair. Sidewalks are sinking and are

From a grotty council flat to CD-era ubiquity: how Dire Straits conquered the world
IT'S hard to believe now, but when they first formed in 1977, Dire Straits struggled to get gigs because their brand of liquid blues-rock was considered old hat by the new punk orthodoxy. Within eight years, the tables had turned spectacularly. Not only were Dire Straits the biggest band in the world, they were harbingers of a shiny new digital age, with Brothers In Arms becoming the first album to sell a million copies on CD.

“He didn’t go country, it was already part of him” – in the studio with Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash
It is May 1, 1969, and Bob Dylan is launching his new album, Nashville Skyline, with a taped appearance on the inaugural episode of The Johnny Cash Show. He hasn't appeared on American television since The Steve Allen Show in February 1964.

How Cheating Death Changed My Perspective on Life
“Only when we realize that our time is limited do we begin to appreciate the value of every single day.” ~Elisabeth Kübler-Ross I didn’t expect the trip to begin the way it did. In December 2003, I decided to take a holiday over Christmas. I booked an eco-tour of Sri Lanka, traveling around the country and staying in different locations.

The Truth About Time That Most of Us Avoid Facing
“The biggest adventure you can take is to live the life of your dreams.” ~Oprah Winfrey My father died at forty-nine. I was young when it happened, still soft in the way grief makes you when you are not yet equipped to hold it. I was so consumed by the loss itself that I never stopped to do the mathematics of it.

7 Things You Should Know About Rabbit Hole, the Bourbon Distillery Breaking Tradition

Anheuser-Busch Is Getting the Bigotry It Paid for With Bud Light’s UFC Deal
June is Pride Month, but you wouldn’t know it by looking at the social media feeds or press releases of the country’s biggest beverage-alcohol companies. Less than two years into the second Trump administration, they’ve mostly abandoned their diversity, equity, and inclusion programs, cut back on their donations to queer organizations, and re-embraced a homogenous vision of the American drinking public that’s as soothing to C-suiters as it is anachronistic to reality.

We Asked 14 Wine Pros: What ‘Cult’ Wine Is Actually Worth the Hype? (2026)
Just as spirits nerds yearn for hard-to-find bottles to add to their collections, oenophiles will always pine over a suite of coveted bottles. Whether due to astronomical prices or low allocations, some wine pros catch onto these bottles simply because they are so unattainable. As a result, these wines develop a “cult” following, but the quality of the product isn’t necessarily what merits that status.

When It Gets Hot Outside, Drink Like They Do in Tulum
Before the mezcal bars, jungle tasting menus, and all-night beach parties, Tulum’s drinking culture revolved around simple things: ice-cold beers, fresh lime, Coca-Cola, and whatever else could survive the Caribbean heat.

That simplicity continues to define the way Tulum drinks today. For all the town’

9 of the Best Albariños From Spain’s Rías Baixas
Albariño is a quintessential summer white wine. The popular Spanish grape variety tends to be light and refreshing with its ample acidity.

At a recent gathering, I was poured a glass of Albariño from Long Island’s North Fork, where the grape has taken root, as it has in Virginia and California, among other regions. But Albariño is at its best in Galicia, the cool, coastal region in northwest Spain, w

10 Essential Bottles of Rosé [Timeline]
Although rosé’s popularity peaks in the summertime, the pink wine’s roots prove it is more than a trendy seasonal beverage. The style dates back centuries, when the Greeks brought vines to Marseilles and rosé was created. It caught the attention of the Romans, who exported it through their trade routes. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the expansion of rail travel within France introduced vacationers to the Provençal lifestyle — and the region’s signature rosé. Over the past couple of

Distillers Give Their Favorite Stills Nicknames. Here Are the Best Ones.
When it comes to making spirits, it’s tough to say one part of the process is most important. Grind grain poorly, and you get bad whiskey.

Nine months after being named receiver of Uncle Nearest, Inc., Phillip G. Young, Jr., filed a non-binding letter of intent to sell the embattled whiskey brand this past Friday. The filing comes just three days after the case’s presiding judge denied founder Fawn Weaver’s motion to reverse the company’s receivership. Young will potentially hand all assets of the company — with the exception of three — to an undisclosed, African-American-owned investment firm, should the court approve the sale. Th

Happy Hour Isn’t Dead, But It Could Be Going Late-Night
Since Covid-19 took over the world in 2020, workplace culture, and in-office expectations, haven’t been the same. The rise of remote work led many companies to cut back on their real estate holdings, and as the “one central office where all employees work” model became less the norm, other work-related traditions started to fall away. One such tradition? Heading to a nearby bar with colleagues to enjoy discounted, post-work drinks. Happy hour has a storied past that began in the Navy at th

The World’s Best Merlot Regions, Mapped
While Merlot originated in Bordeaux, the grape grows well all around the world. Its cultivation now stretches from its homeland in Europe to the Pacific Northwest of the United States and the Southern Hemisphere. Merlot is often compared to Cabernet Sauvignon: The two go hand in hand because they are the most common varieties in Bordeaux and known for headlining the region’s world-class, luxurious red blends. Where Cabernet is firm in tannins and full in body, Merlot is softer and lighter with f

Anheuser-Busch Takes the Corporate Craft Throne From Molson Coors and New Belgium
It seemed like it wasn’t a question of if, but when, Voodoo Ranger’s parent company finally caught up to Blue Moon’s on corporate craft volume. And according to one long-running brewing industry magazine, the answer is now. But that answer appears to be wrong. And a miscommunication around New Belgium Brewery’s “total beverage” ambitions may be to blame. Every year around Memorial Day — that much-monitored kickoff to beer-selling season — The New Brewer publishes an issue with the overall produc

The States That Drink the Most Beer in America [MAP] (2025)
Beer still reigns as the country’s most consumed alcoholic beverage by volume, according to data from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA). In 2023 — the most recent year of data available — Americans drank 6.2 billion gallons of beer, a 3 percent dip in total consumption from 2022. Still, the category topped wine (887 million gallons) and spirits (734 million gallons) by volume. The South — the NIAAA demarcates its regions in line with the U.S. Census Bureau — knocked

The VinePair Podcast: Reservations Are Hurting Bars
We’re in the age when the line between bar and restaurant is increasingly blurred. Not only do bars now offer stellar food programs and table service — they’re requiring reservations. The reservation climate of the 2020s has been nothing but volatile. Hopefuls wake up early in the morning to refresh Resy, OpenTable, and the like for a chance at snagging a seat and regularly end up disappointed. Tough-to-get reservations are nothing new.

Craft Breweries Are Betting Big on the 2026 World Cup
If you’re into soccer, you might consider watching the world’s greatest teams play live in a nearby stadium sometime in the next month and a half.

We Asked 10 Sommeliers: What Supermarket Wine Do You Secretly Love? (2026)
Wine comes in two groups for the average consumer. The first group contains the bottles reserved for special moments or fancy occasions. These are usually higher in price and stature, elegant in presentation, and can inspire imbibers to take a little extra time with each sip. These bottles warrant a dedicated trip to a specialty bottle shop with a carefully curated selection. Then there are the bottles for everyday drinking: unwinding after work, pairing with weeknight meals, or for opening whil

The 20 Best Mezcals for 2026
To say mezcal is a complex spirit is a bit of an understatement. While to understand tequila is to know strictly about Blue Weber agave, mezcal uses dozens of different types of agave varieties, most that aren’t yet household names like Tobalá, Cupreata, and Tepeztate. This, in turn, means that, unlike tequila, there is no one distinct flavor profile for mezcal. Mezcal can be citrusy, vegetal, peppery, herbal, earthy, savory, sweet, and, yes, smoky, the flavor profile most people assume it all t

Wine 101: In Defense of Cabernet Sauvignon 50 Years After the Judgement of Paris
Fifty years ago, the Judgement of Paris played a major role in solidifying the prestige of Cabernet Sauvignon made in the United States. Soon after, a number of factors led American winemakers and consumers to develop a palate for big, jammy, teeth-kicking Cabs — a taste preference that eventually overwhelmed the market. But when sampling hundreds of bottles for this year’s list of the 30 Best Cabernet Sauvignons, Keith noticed that a new era for the grape is emerging in this country. No longer

Bourbon’s Global Soft Power Is Fading as Trump Tariffs Reshape the Industry
Bourbon is facing a crisis of global proportions. Its domestic outlook is dim, as sales recede amid consumption declines and a serious oversupply problem. But internationally, the picture is downright bleak: According to the Distilled Spirits Council of the United States, American whiskey exports cratered by 19 percent in 2025, due in large part to declines of 57 percent in Canada, 35 percent in the European Union, and 28 percent in Japan — three of the largest markets.

17 of the Best Wines From the Country of Georgia
They are grapes you’ve never heard of. The names are mostly unfamiliar. Some are fermented and aged underground in massive egg-shaped clay pots, just as they were thousands of years ago. These are the grapes and wines of Georgia, a country that borders Russia, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Turkey, and the Black Sea almost 6,000 miles from the United States — and just as far from the minds of most American wine drinkers. But that may be changing. If Georgian wines are not yet having a moment in this count

The Best Gin for Each Martini Variation, According to Bartenders
No cocktail puts its ingredients on display quite like a Martini. There’s nowhere to hide in this combination of gin, vermouth, and possibly a dash of bitters or a bit of brine. If the spirit is sub-par or vermouth has gone bad, it’ll be clear from the very first sip. So it’s no wonder bartenders have strong feelings about which gin to use in each style of Martini. While there are certainly a few one-size-fits-all options out there, a classic, bone-dry Martini might require a different flavor pr

The VinePair Podcast: Are Seasonal Cocktails a Trap?
Seasonality isn’t restricted to just food menus. Some drinks programs rely on each season’s best produce for house-made cordials, shrubs, tinctures, and other elements to flavor their cocktails. It’s an impressive feat: Crafting seasonal cocktails shows that drinks professionals are nimble and able to adapt their menus on a whim. As a result, these drinks often become highly sought after. But by crafting temporary signatures, bars and restaurants may be shooting themselves in the foot. Just as i

It’s Been 50 Years Since the Judgement of Paris — It’s Time to Move On.
Everyone loves a David and Goliath story; the underdog-beats-all trope is timeless for a reason. In 1976 this scenario played out in the wine world: At a small tasting in Paris, bottles from the nascent Napa Valley ranked higher than French wines in both red and white categories. That seminal day, known as the Judgement of Paris, reverberated throughout the industry and shaped the reputation of Napa. Now, half a century later, Napa is considered one of the world’s preeminent wine regions. The ar

We Asked 13 Bartenders: What Will Be the Drink of the Summer? (2026)
When temperatures start to spike and OOO messages fill up your inbox, that usually means it’s time to crown the official “drink of the summer.” Some years, it feels like drinkers are on the same page. Like when Spicy Margaritas and icy glasses of frosé dominated patios. Or when, a few years later, those same goblets were replaced by bright orange Aperol Spritzes. But sometimes, the drinks that people can’t stop talking about — looking at you, Dirty Shirley — fail to actually take hold. It’s toug

The Napa Cabs You Should Try if You Don’t Like Big, Jammy Wines
In their heyday, Napa Cabs were nothing like today’s stereotypical version. The flower-power vibe of the 1970s was apparent in the rough-around-the-edges, lively, vegetal, and experimental Cabs of that period. Then came the critic Robert Parker and the development of winemaking technology — two forces that influenced winemakers and consumers alike to acquire a taste for bold, high-alcohol, jammy expressions. In turn, the term “Napa Cab” has become almost entirely synonymous with these teeth-kick

To Justify a $20 Cocktail, Bartenders Are Telling Stories With Their Drinks
A $20 cocktail can feel like a gamble: The menu offers just a short list of ingredients and the promise of polished presentation with no real guarantee the drink will taste great. Add on the influx of stunt ingredients and trends like savory cocktails and you’re left with a cocktail menu that reads more like poetry than a description of drinks. But sometimes, a $20 cocktail nails it. At many of today’s most ambitious bars, these drinks are the result of weeks — or often months — of testing

Despite the relatively recent rise of the Spaghett (Aperol and lemon juice poured into a Miller High Life) and its fellow not-quite-spritzes, beer cocktails have a long history. The “shandy,” a two-part mix of beer with lemonade or ginger ale, was first mentioned in print in the late 19th century, and glühbier has long been a staple of European holiday drinking. Modern bartenders have not shied away from the category, either, often turning stouts, sours and IPAs into syrups to add layered dimens

Hovvdy – “Blast”
I don't think of Hovvdy as a band where the singer holds a microphone, which is to say I don't think of core duo Will Taylor and Charlie Martin as frontmen in the classic sense. The band's music feels too insular and introverted for that kind of showmanship. I think of these guys holding instruments when they sing, not really commanding my attention, letting the song do the talking. But they're changing my perception with this new album rollout.

Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds Kick Off European Tour With Live Rarities, Pogues Cover

A common sign of hearing loss isn’t complete silence — it’s struggling to follow conversations, especially in noisy places. Experts say hearing loss and tinnitus, the ringing or buzzing many people experience, often start when delicate cells inside the ear become damaged from aging or long-term noise exposure. Beyond making it harder to hear, these conditions can affect sleep, concentration, mood, and even increase the risk of falls and cognitive decline.

Cancer cells often survive treatment by fixing the DNA damage that therapy is meant to cause. Researchers found that UNI418 can disrupt this repair ability, leaving cancer cells more exposed. When combined with a PARP inhibitor, it helped resistant cancer cells respond to treatment again. The findings point to a new strategy for overcoming cancer drug resistance.
