About this listen

a UCL researcher picks up the 2026 Novo Nordisk Prize for work that’s shifting Duchenne muscular dystrophy from “nothing we can do” to “we can actually intervene.” Then the UK Space Agency drops fresh cash on satellite comms, because in 2026 even “space” is basically an internet argument. Elsewhere, researchers flip a magnet with a laser like it’s casual, a Nature paper raises a big red flag about ancient carbon leaking out through Congo Basin la kes, and there’s a quick gaming palate cleanser with League’s latest patch. Oh — and Apple’s here to remind your laptop it’s replaceable. More on all of it at standard.co.uk — and follow Tech and Science Daily from The Standard for your weekday briefing.
