Mixing senses: synaesthesia taught to adults
Brain training for synaesthesia — where you mix up sensory information — may be just around the corner. People have been taught to experience a form of synaesthesia where letters
By the end of the nine-week course, most of the volunteers were seeing text in the real world take on particular colours, on road signs, for example. “The colour
Synaesthesia is thought to result from people’s brains developing in such a way that their sensory

A failed study, a happy accident and a promising treatment for blindness In the textbooks, science is simple. You come up with an idea, put it to the test, and then accept it or reject it depending on what your experiments reveal. In the real world, though, things are rarely that straightforward, as a paper just published in Science Translational Medicine shows.
The disease in question is Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON). A defective gene in a patient’s mitochondria — the tiny structures that provide a cell’s energy — causes retinal cells to die. That leads to sudden and rapid loss of sight, with many
Since most cases are caused by a mutation (突变) in a single gene, LHON is a good
Many viruses can insert their genes into the DNA of their hosts. That is
Most medical studies make use of a control group, against which the
The researchers had hoped to see a big improvement in the treated eyes, compared with the untreated ones. They did not, and for that reason the study failed in its primary objective. Instead, in more than three-quarters of their patients, they saw substantial
On the face of it, that was bizarre. Only one eye had received the treatment, after all. The virus, it seems, had found a way to travel from one eye to the other, probably via the optic nerve. Although it had a happy outcome in this case, the prospect of a gene-therapy virus travelling to places it is not intended to go might worry regulators.
And, though the study was
