In a new study, researchers found that tightening your abdominal muscles, something as basic as bending, twisting, or walking, may trigger tiny pressure changes that set brain fluid in motion, helping to circulate cerebrospinal fluid throughout the brain.
This process could support brain health by enhancing the removal of substances that, if accumulated, might interfere with normal function.
The research, led by scientists at Penn State University, used experiments in mice and computer simulations to reveal how this effect works. They discovered a network of veins that mechanically links the abdominal cavity with the spinal cord and brain.
When the abdominal muscles contract, they press on these blood vessels, pushing blood toward the spinal cord and causing slight movement of the brain within the skull. That subtle motion helps cerebrospinal fluid flow across the brain, creating a “brain cleaning” mechanism previously unknown.
The team used high‑resolution imaging techniques, such as micro‑CT scanning, to visualize these connections and understand how movement affects fluid dynamics. Their simulations showed that the gentle brain motion generated by muscle tightening can drive the flow of cerebrospinal fluid, which is essential for removing metabolic waste and maintaining a healthy brain environment.
While the research is still in early stages and most of the findings come from animal studies, the implications are exciting: it provides a biological explanation for why regular movement and physical activity are linked to better brain health.
The findings suggest that even small amounts of movement throughout the day could help keep the brain’s fluid system functioning well, potentially reducing the risk of cognitive issues later in life.
According to the researchers, this discovery adds a new layer to our understanding of the mind‑body connection. Rather than being isolated from the rest of the body, the brain appears to benefit directly from simple physical forces generated during ordinary activities.
Future research will investigate how these mechanisms work in humans and whether specific types of movement could be recommended to support long‑term brain health.
Simple movements may help “clean” the brain by promoting fluid flow.
Officials said the decision comes amid a diplomatic rift between U.S. President Donald Trump and European leaders over the ongoing war with Iran and the perceived level of allied support for American military operations.
Germany, home to roughly 35,000 U.S. troops, has been a central base for operational training and logistical support for U.S. forces in Europe.
The planned withdrawal will reduce the American footprint in Germany to levels seen before 2022, prior to an expansion of forces following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
A senior Pentagon official speaking on condition of anonymity described recent comments by German Chancellor Friedrich Merz as “inappropriate and unhelpful,” saying they contributed to Washington’s decision to pull back forces.
The official added that the U.S. expects Europe to play a more decisive role in its own security and regional defence policy.
The announcement highlighted cracks in the once‑steady transatlantic alliance, as leaders in Washington and Berlin spar over strategy and burden‑sharing.
Chancellor Merz has been publicly critical of aspects of U.S. policy, suggesting that Europe was not consulted before American and allied strikes began in the Persian Gulf region earlier this year.
This exchange has further strained relations with NATO’s most influential European partner.
While the troop withdrawal does not represent a full exit by the United States from Germany or NATO, it sends a strong message about shifting priorities.
U.S. officials say the move is part of a broader defence posture review and reflects changing military needs on the ground. However, analysts warn that it could deepen divisions between the United States and Europe, potentially encouraging European countries to accelerate efforts to build up their own defence capabilities independent of U.S. leadership.
Critics of the decision within the United States argue that reducing troop numbers amid rising geopolitical challenges including Russia’s continued aggression in Eastern Europe could weaken NATO’s deterrence posture.
Supporters of the pullback, however, claim it will allow the United States to realign its defence focus toward other global priorities and encourage NATO members to assume greater responsibility for their collective security.
The planned drawdown also affects specific units of the U.S. Army in Germany, including a brigade combat team and a long‑range artillery battalion, with planned deployments canceled as part of the reorganization.
As the withdrawal moves forward, U.S. and European officials are expected to engage in further discussions about defence cooperation and the future role of NATO in ensuring regional stability.

Scientists have made a major breakthrough in understanding how the immune system’s most powerful cells fight cancer, and for the first time, they’ve captured a detailed three‑dimensional look at the process inside real tumours.
Researchers from the University of Geneva and the Lausanne University Hospital used an advanced imaging technique called cryo‑expansion microscopy to observe how killer T cells, also known as cytotoxic T lymphocytes, attack and eliminate cancerous cells at the microscopic level.
This new view shows that these immune cells form an intricately organised contact zone with their targets, allowing them to destroy dangerous cells with incredible precision, while protecting nearby healthy tissue.
Until now, scientists could only see parts of this killing process because traditional imaging methods either lacked the resolution or distorted the cells’ natural structure. Cryo‑expansion microscopy changes that by freezing cells quickly to preserve their internal architecture and then physically expanding the sample so that tiny details can be seen more clearly than ever before.
Jens Rietdorf, a research engineer at the UNIGE Faculty of Science and co-author, explained why this has been so difficult to observe until now:
“The great challenge in science has always been observing these interactions without deforming delicate biological structures. Cryo-expansion microscopy allows for the physical enlargement of cells after an ultra-rapid freezing process, making the invisible visible.”
With this new technique, the researchers uncovered previously hidden features at the interface where the immune cell meets its target. They also observed how the toxic granules inside T cells, the “killers” that deliver the death blow to infected or cancerous cells, vary in structure and organisation.
Most importantly, the team was able to apply this method directly to tumour tissue samples, allowing them to watch the immune response in a realistic, clinical setting.
This new 3D insight into how killer T cells work could have meaningful implications for cancer research and treatment. By understanding the molecular choreography behind successful immune attacks, scientists can better explore how to improve immunotherapies or find ways to overcome immune resistance in stubborn tumours.
This discovery doesn’t just show us what killer T cells do; it shows how they do it, and that deeper understanding could be a powerful tool in the fight against cancer.

The visit aimed to deepen their understanding of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi, reflect on the importance of learning from history, and honor genocide victims.
The team was joined by Tito Rutaremara, Chairperson of the Rwanda Elders Advisory Forum who gave an insightful talk on the causes of genocide, the ideology behind it, and the calculated planning that led to one of Africa’s darkest chapters.
Rutaremara, who has played an instrumental role in Rwanda’s recovery and served as a long-standing senator and Chief Ombudsman, stressed the importance of learning from Rwanda’s tragic history.
“We all have the responsibility to understand our history, as it is through learning from the past that we can create a future of peace and unity,” Rutaremara emphasized.
He highlighted the need for both Rwanda and the broader African continent to recognize the painful past and use it as a foundation for reconciliation and long-term peace.
Rutaremara’s call resonated deeply with the employees as he reminded them that the responsibility to ensure such atrocities are never repeated rests with all of us.
The team also heard a moving firsthand testimony from Maurice Gasasira, who recounted his ordeal, from facing persecution during his school years to the devastating moment, where he witnessed the murder of his parents during the Genocide.
His story offered a personal lens into how the atrocities unfolded, leaving the team with an understanding of the tragedy and the enduring lessons it holds for humanity.
Gasasira highlighted the deep emotional scars left by the genocide. “It was a moment of unimaginable loss,” he said, reflecting on the trauma he endured.
His testimony served as a poignant reminder to the Smart Africa team that the impact of the genocide is still felt today, and the lessons of pain, courage, and healing must not be forgotten.
The Genocide against the Tutsi claimed lives of over one million victims in just 100 days, a tragedy that was halted by the Rwanda Patriotic Army (RPA).
The employees, having visited the memorial’s various exhibitions, also laid wreaths at mass graves where over 250,000 victims are buried.
Mr. Lacina Koné, the Director-General and CEO of Smart Africa, offered a heartfelt message of solidarity and called for collective efforts to prevent recurrence.
“The Genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda is a crime against humanity and we should never, ever allow this to happen anywhere around the world. If you look at what happened, it’s completely inhumane and beyond imagination. We should all fight it with all our strength,” he said underscoring the universal responsibility to prevent such tragedies.
The visit to the memorial served as a powerful reminder for Smart Africa’s employees of the importance of understanding history and the shared responsibility in Africa and beyond to promote peace, unity, and reconciliation.

In the first quarter of 2026, the world’s largest technology companies showed that their massive investments in artificial intelligence infrastructure are beginning to pay off, even as they continue to increase their spending.
Companies such as Microsoft, Alphabet (Google’s parent company), Meta Platforms, and Amazon all reported stronger‑than‑expected results, largely driven by growth in their AI‑related cloud services and data center businesses. These results confirmed that their costly commitments to AI computing capacity and infrastructure are generating real revenue and are shaping the future of their businesses.
These major tech firms are collectively projected to spend more than $700 billion on AI infrastructure in 2026, a significant increase from earlier expectations of around $600 billion. This year’s total far surpasses the roughly $650 billion level that had been forecast earlier, reflecting how urgently companies are racing to build the computing power needed to support advanced AI tools and services.
Microsoft reported robust growth in its Azure cloud division, with revenue beating analyst expectations. Its AI‑related revenue has grown significantly, prompting the company to raise its full‑year capital expenditure forecast to about $190 billion well above market predictions. Microsoft’s leadership described this period as part of a new “agentic computing era,” where AI tools are central to enterprise services.
Alphabet saw particularly strong performance from Google Cloud, which posted a 63 % year‑over‑year revenue increase the most dramatic growth among the major cloud platforms. CEO Sundar Pichai pointed out that demand for AI computing is outpacing supply, leading to expanded infrastructure commitments. This strong performance helped reinforce Alphabet’s decision to boost its capital spending projections for 2026 and beyond.
Meta Platforms also surpassed revenue expectations, reporting about 33 % growth in its first‑quarter sales. However, its expanding AI infrastructure costs and higher capital expenditure outlook contributed to downward pressure on its stock price. Meta plans to spend more on data centers and components to support future AI tools and services.
Amazon continued to show solid performance in cloud computing through its Amazon Web Services (AWS) division, which saw a 28 % growth rate, the fastest in many quarters. AWS has also formed strategic partnerships with AI companies, reinforcing its long‑term AI spending plans without raising its full‑year forecast.
The first quarter of 2026 demonstrated that AI investments are driving revenue growth for Big Tech, even though companies are still increasing their capital expenditures. Demand for AI infrastructure remains strong, suggesting that these technology giants are committed to long‑term expansion in AI and cloud computing as core parts of their business futures.
Big tech’s AI investment soars in Q1 2026, reaching $700 billion in infrastructure spending.
Imagine expecting a hot dry season, only for heavy rains to suddenly fall and destroy homes, crops, and infrastructure. Then, when people have planted and are expecting rainfall, prolonged sunshine and drought take over instead.
These unpredictable weather patterns are among the causes of natural disasters that continue to affect communities.
Many Rwandans still remember the devastating rains of May 2023, which triggered disasters that claimed 135 lives.
More than 2,100 houses were damaged, while another 2,763 were completely destroyed. Roads and other public infrastructure were also badly affected, and the impact is still visible today.
According to a report by the Ministry in Charge of Emergency Management(MINEMA), natural disasters are among the most expensive challenges facing Rwanda, costing the country around $300 million (more than Rwf 400 billion) every year.
To respond to these challenges and strengthen environmental resilience, the Government of Rwanda, through the Rwanda Water Resources Board (RWB) and other development partners, is implementing five major projects worth more than Rwf 735 billion.
These projects are aimed at helping Rwanda tackle climate change, reduce flooding, improve water resource management, generate electricity through sustainable resources, boost food security, and improve the livelihoods of communities living near the project areas.
One of the flagship initiatives is the construction of the Muvumba Multi-Purpose Dam in Nyagatare District. The project is expected to be completed in March 2027, and construction has currently reached 46 percent.
The dam is being built on 400 hectares of land across Karama and Rukomo sectors, and it will also extend into Gatunda Sector in Nyagatare District.
Once completed, the dam will stand 39 meters high, with a crest stretching one kilometer and 160 meters in length.
It will have the capacity to store nearly 55 million cubic meters of water. This water will be used to provide clean drinking water to residents, irrigate farmland, supply livestock, and generate one megawatt of electricity.
Construction of the Muvumba Dam is progressing steadily.
The African Development Bank (AfDB) will provide €121.5 million (about Rwf 207 billion), covering 97.2 percent of the total project cost, while Rwanda will contribute 2.8 percent, equivalent to €2.688 million (more than Rwf 4.5 billion).
The dam will supply 50,000 cubic meters of clean water per day. It will also generate one megawatt of electricity and support irrigation on 10,000 hectares of farmland in the sectors of Tabagwe, Gatunda, Karama, Rukomo, Nyagatare, Rwempasha, Musheri, and Rwimiyaga.
Rwanda is also implementing another major initiative known as the Volcanoes Community Resilience Project (VCRP), which is funded by the World Bank. The project is being carried out jointly by the Rwanda Water Resources Board (RWB), the Rwanda Environment Management Authority (REMA), and Meteo Rwanda.
Scheduled to run from 2024 to 2028, the project is valued at $300 million (more than Rwf 438 billion). It focuses on reducing flooding, improving livelihoods, and implementing water management measures in volcanic areas.
The project targets communities living in the volcanic region and the Vunga Corridor. It is expected to strengthen flood control, improve water drainage systems, and uplift livelihoods in the districts of Musanze, Nyabihu, Rubavu, Gakenke, Burera, Rutsiro, Ngororero, and Muhanga.
Since implementation began, terraces covering nearly 400 hectares have been constructed, along with 332 anti-erosion structures and other interventions in the districts of Musanze, Nyabihu, and Rubavu.
More than 450,000 tree and crop seedlings have been prepared and planted on 1,184 hectares of land. In additio n, 357 water tanks have been distributed, while 167 cows have been provided to vulnerable families.
Another key environmental conservation initiative currently receiving strong support is the project aimed at protecting biodiversity in the Congo-Nile Divide.
Over the next three years, a biodiversity conservation project covering districts located along the Congo-Nile Ridge is expected to be completed.
This project is being implemented in 10 districts, namely Musanze, Nyabihu, Rubavu, Ngororero, Rutsiro, Karongi, Nyamasheke, Rusizi, Nyamagabe, and Nyaruguru.
It is valued at $50 million (more than Rwf 73 billion) and is being implemented by the Rwanda Water Resources Board (RWB) in partnership with stakeholders, including the Rwanda Forestry Authority (RFA).
Congo-Nile Divide Biodiversity Conservation Project is expected to deliver major transformation.
This project, titled “Building Resilience of Vulnerable Communities to Climate Variability in Rwanda’s Congo Nile Divide through Forest and Landscape Restoration,” will focus on conserving natural resources in the Albertine Rift section of the Congo-Nile Divide, which covers 444,600 hectares.
The initiative is expected to restore 5,000 hectares within Nyungwe National Park and Gishwati Forest, while 3,346 hectares will be planted with agroforestry trees. Terraces will be developed on 1,600 hectares of land, 8,500 households will receive clean and environmentally friendly energy solutions, and forests covering 2,500 hectares will be protected.
The project is also expected to create around 24,000 job opportunities.
In the districts of Karongi and Rutsiro, the Rwanda Water Resources Board (RWB) will focus on land restoration activities, including the construction of terraces on 1,673 hectares.
The works will also include rehabilitating 39 kilometers of water channels damaged by heavy rainfall, as well as restoring 300 hectares of land near rivers. These activities are expected to create employment for 3,500 people.
Environmental protection efforts also include another project aimed at combating floods and helping residents in western Rwanda build resilience against disasters.
This project is valued at $9 million (more than Rwf 13 billion). It will focus on addressing recurring floods, soil erosion, and land degradation.
To achieve these goals, water retention dams will be constructed and reinforced with grass cover, damaged drainage channels in Rusizi and Karongi will be rehabilitated, terraces will be built, and agroforestry trees will be planted. These interventions are expected to benefit more than 600,000 residents.
The project will also support the construction of six modern monitoring stations designed to provide early flood warnings, alongside the introduction of digital disaster alert systems.
These measures are expected to benefit 1.2 million people, while training programs on disaster preparedness and response will also be provided.
Five projects worth Rwf 735 billion are underway to protect the environment.
The study, carried out by scientists from King’s College London, focused on nearly 500 infants born at St Thomas’ Hospital in London between 2015 and 2020.
Using the addresses where the mothers lived during pregnancy, researchers estimated how much air pollution including nitrogen dioxide and tiny airborne particles called PM2.5 and PM10, the mothers were exposed to during the first trimester of pregnancy.
When the children reached 18 months old, the researchers assessed their developmental progress using established language and motor skill tests.
They discovered that babies whose mothers experienced higher pollution levels in early pregnancy scored five to seven points lower on language tests than those whose mothers breathed cleaner air. This suggests that exposure to pollution in the womb may have a meaningful impact on early communication skills.
The study also found that babies who were born prematurely, especially those born before 32 weeks of pregnancy were even more affected. These infants showed not only delayed speech development but also significantly weaker motor skills, such as crawling and coordination, compared with full‑term babies.
Experts say these findings highlight a growing concern about air pollution and early childhood development. Air pollution doesn’t just affect the environment it can also influence children’s health and growth even before they are born.
In many cities, especially in areas near busy roads and crowded neighbourhoods, pregnant women may be exposed to levels of pollution that seem permissible by current legal standards but may still pose risks to developing babies.
Campaigners and scientists stress that the effects of dirty air are not shared equally. Families living in working‑class and marginalized communities often face higher pollution exposure, raising questions about environmental fairness and health equality.
They argue that protecting children’s health starting before birth requires not only better pollution controls but also policies that address deeper social inequalities.
Although this research was based in London, its implications extend around the world. Air pollution is one of the leading environmental health risks globally, and almost everyone worldwide breathes air containing harmful pollutants at levels that exceed safe guidelines.
Protecting pregnant women and babies from polluted air could help give children a healthier start in life and reduce potential developmental challenges later on.
Air pollution during pregnancy linked to delayed speech development in babies, study finds.
For years, scientists assumed that the cells in the nose that detect smell were scattered in a mostly random way. But in a recent study led by researchers at Harvard Medical School, a team took a closer look by studying millions of smell receptors in mice.
What they found was unexpected: these receptors aren’t random at all; they’re arranged in neat, overlapping stripes that stretch from the top to the bottom of the nasal cavity. This structure acts like a hidden map, where each stripe represents a group of neurons that detect specific types of odor molecules.
Even more exciting, this map inside the nose closely matches a similar pattern in the brain. That means that the way smells are sensed and how they are understood by the brain are tightly connected like two pieces of a puzzle that fit together perfectly.
Researchers also began to understand how this hidden map forms as animals develop. They discovered that a molecule called retinoic acid which helps control how genes are turned on and off plays an essential role in guiding smell neurons into their correct positions.
When the levels of this molecule were changed in the lab, the entire receptor map shifted, showing that this chemical helps shape the sense of smell from the very beginning.
So why does this matter? Understanding the basic structure of smell could help scientists find new ways to restore lost senses in people who can no longer smell due to injury or illness.
Right now, treatments for smell loss are limited and often don’t work well. But now that we know how the nose normally organizes smell information and connects it to the brain, researchers have a better roadmap for developing future therapies.
This discovery not only answers a long-standing scientific mystery it opens doors to future advances that might help people reclaim a sense many of us take for granted.
A microscope image shows a cross-section of a genetically modified mouse nose, with smell neurons expressing green fluorescent protein.
The visit took place on Tuesday, April 28, 2026, as the company joined the nation in commemorating the 32nd anniversary of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi at the memorial located in Rwamagana District.
Triphine Turamye, a survivor from Muyumbu Hill, shared a moving testimony about how her parents were killed during the Genocide against the Tutsi. She also spoke about how she later chose to forgive those responsible for their deaths.
She thanked the Inkotanyi for rescuing her, saying she has since rebuilt her life and is grateful to live in a peaceful country free from discrimination.
Jibu Rwanda Country Manager, Tuyisenge Bruno, said that some businesspeople during the genocide left behind a painful legacy after supporting the perpetrators.
He noted that today, Jibu is committed to doing business responsibly and working to ensure that such atrocities never happen again.
He said, “As members of Jibu, we are committed to working alongside the country in building Rwanda. We visit memorial sites, join others in remembrance activities, and contribute to development projects that help strengthen our nation.”
Uwamahoro Rehema, representing traders who work with Jibu across Rwanda, said that visiting genocide survivors during the commemoration period is an important way to comfort and support them so they do not feel alone.
She added that such gestures help survivors regain confidence and continue rebuilding their lives.
The President of IBUKA in Rwamagana District, Musabyeyezu Dative, thanked Jibu Rwanda for taking the initiative to learn more about the history of the Genocide against the Tutsi.
He said this demonstrates the commitment of Rwandans to promoting unity, preserving truth, and rejecting evil wherever it appears.
The Executive Secretary of Muyumbu Sector, Muhamya Aman, also thanked Jibu Rwanda for standing in solidarity with survivors in Muyumbu.
He said such efforts help educate young people and strengthen the fight against genocide ideology.
During the visit, Jibu Rwanda leaders and employees laid wreaths at the graves where victims of the Genocide against the Tutsi are buried and officially handed over the Rwf 6 million donation to support the memorial’s modernization.
The Muyumbu Genocide Memorial is the final resting place of 14,401 victims of the Genocide against the Tutsi. Rwamagana District is home to 11 memorial sites, where more than 85,000 victims are buried.
