- A new aging-biotech resource site, http://agingbiotech.info/, was shared as a centralized information hub for longevity research.  
- Participants debated the core scientific disciplines required for molecular nanotechnology; physical chemistry was identified as essential, with stereochemistry noted as a sub-field of particular relevance for computer scientists entering the space.  
- A Nature paper, “A humanized NOVA1 splicing factor alters mouse vocal communications” (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-025-56579-2), was highlighted for its implications on gene-editing, neural circuits, and potential human cognitive enhancement.  
- The open-source “hackerfab” lithography stepper v2 build guide (https://docs.hackerfab.org/home/fab-toolkit/patterning/lithography-stepper-v2-build-work-in-progress) was circulated, showcasing low-cost semiconductor patterning tools for grassroots nanofabrication.  
- Discussion of observational nutrition science included skepticism about small odds ratios linking peanut consumption to reduced mortality, framed as “divination via chicken entrails,” underscoring the community’s critical stance on weak epidemiological claims.
