• With the introduction of the IX5 hydrogen car, BMW is exciting experts with the idea of a new competitor in the race for sustainability.  Here's what we know:
• A prominent brand like BMW going with hydrogen represents a strong alternative to electric cars
• Both hydrogen and electric vehicles are good for the environment - neither emit harmful gases
• A major plus for hydrogen is it can be filled with fuel very quickly and can go a much longer distance than an EV without refueling
• Many people feel electric charging takes too long and EVs don't go far enough on a charge
• A problem with hydrogen cars is the lack of places to fuel
• As hydrogen refueling centers show up and with a strong global brand like BMW promulgating hydrogen vehicles, people may start choosing hydrogen vehicles over electric vehicles
• BMW's IX5 hydrogen car could prove to be a gamechanger for the automotive industry.

• US research team has developed a new, innovative way to destroy cancer at the molecular level, that looks like a breakthrough.  Here are some key facts:
• Using vibrating molecules, the scientists destroyed 99% of cancer cells in the lab
• The molecules are aminocyanine molecules caused to vibrate in sync by near-infrared light
• They destroyed 99% of the cancer cell membranes which simply broke apart
• These results are considered very significant and a marked improvement over other types of cancer killing molecular machines
• The approach is called the molecular jackhammer
• Scientific team is from Rice University, University of Texas and Texas A&M
• Big potential: because of the near-infrared light, the molecular jackhammer can go deep into the body and without surgery tackle bone and organ cancers
• Important research that all of us, including investors, should monitor for next steps.
