Can AI compress the years long research time of a PhD into seconds? Research scientist Max Jaderberg explores how “AI analogs” simulate real-world lab work with staggering speed and scale, unlocking new insights on protein folding and drug discovery. Drawing on his experience working on Isomorphic Labs' and Google DeepMind's AlphaFold 3 — an AI model for predicting the structure of molecules — Jaderberg explains how this new technology frees up researchers' time and resources to better understand the real, messy world and tackle the next frontiers of science, medicine and more.

The field of contenders to lead the Fort Worth Police Department as its next chief has been narrowed to four finalists. The finalists are Robert Alldredge, the interim chief of the Fort Worth Police Department; Eddie García, assistant city manager in Austin who retired as Dallas police chief last fall; Vernon Hale, a former Dallas deputy chief who now works as an assistant chief in Prince George’s County, Md.; and Emada Tingirides, a deputy chief with the Los Angeles Police Department. In other news, the Trump administration’s decision to freeze billions of dollars in education funding will leave Dallas schools with a $22 million gap; President Trump on Tuesday described Texas as the centerpiece in a plan to add Republican U.S. House seats by redrawing congressional boundaries in multiple states. Wringing five more Republican congressional seats from Texas would be a significant help to the party as it tries to preserve its razor-thin House majority; nd three quiet pools of water tucked between highways and neighborhoods along the Trinity River will now honor Dallas’ Native American history. In a landmark act of cultural restoration, the Dallas City Council unanimously agreed last month to name these lakes with Native terms proposed by a grassroots intertribal committee.

Texas attorney general warns of possible scam in flood relief GoFundMe campaign ... and more news 5:57

1 day тому5:57

5:57

As Texans rally to support flood victims, state Attorney General Ken Paxton is investigating a GoFundMe campaign that his office says may be taking advantage of their generosity. Paxton issued a warning letter on Monday to Tray Coppola, the organizer of an unverified GoFundMe campaign, because of concerns that it may be a scam targeting those affected by recent floods in Texas. In other news, Dallas officials think they can meet the city’s mandate of having at least 4,000 police officers in four years, though their hiring goals rely on a plan that the City Council voted to scale back months ago. The plan includes hiring 350 new officers over 12 months starting this fall and 400 new officers each following year until 2029; the stock of Veritex Holdings soared 20% on Monday, after the Dallas-based bank agreed to a nearly $2 billion buyout by Huntington Bancshares, a Midwest regional banking powerhouse with ambitions to deepen its Texas footprint; and Walmart is adding yet another store to the Dallas-Fort Worth area, but this one will come in a more compact size. The massive retailer is set to begin construction on a “Neighborhood Market” this fall in Mesquite and to complete the site in late summer of 2026. Learn more about your ad choices.

First Baptist Dallas leaders and congregants marked the one-year anniversary of the devastating four-alarm fire that destroyed the downtown church’s historic sanctuary on Sunday. In other news, a woman’s body was recovered from Lake Lewisville early Sunday morning. Texas Game Wardens responded to Lake Lewisville early Sunday on a reported drowning; group of kids in Dallas set up shop in their neighborhood selling what they called, ‘the best lemonade in Dallas’ as a fundraiser to help those in need after the flooding. Set up with a cooler chock-full of ice, towers of plastic red Solo cups, two pitchers of fresh lemonade, and a homemade wooden stand posted under a yellow umbrella with a sign that read: “Lemonade, $1. All proceeds go to Camp Mystic,” the kids starting making sales around 10 Saturday morning; and women’s basketball phenoms Paige Bueckers and Caitlin Clark played each other for the first time as professionals on Sunday, which ended in a 102-83 Indiana Fever win over the Dallas Wings.

Texas state Sen. Angela Paxton filed Thursday to end her marriage with Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, citing infidelity in Collin County court documents. Angela Paxton’s attorney, Charla Bradshaw, alleged in documents obtained by The Dallas Morning News that Ken Paxton “has committed adultery.’ In other news, about 115 animals from Texas’ flood-ravaged Hill Country landed Thursday at a private tarmac in Fort Worth, flown by the nonprofit Wings of Rescue. A trio of organizations — Humane Society of North Texas in Fort Worth, SPCA of Texas in Dallas and Operation Kindness in Carrollton — took in the animals. Wings of Rescue flew the animals from shelters in San Angelo and San Marcos, inundated this week with cats and dogs rescued from the July 4 flood; the Texas Trees Foundation secured $25 million in state funding for the Southwestern Medical District Transformation Project in the Harry Hines Corridor.

SportsDay Insider: Should Rangers stay pat, and will Pickens and Cowboys get along? 47:46

47:46

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant are joined by Joe Hoyt, covering the Cowboys in his return to the staff. [1:10] Kevin and Evan can’t argue with the fact that Jacob deGrom was the only Ranger on the preliminary list for Tuesday’s All-Star Game. Do they also fail to make any ripples at the trade deadline? Evan says he wouldn’t have a problem if Chris Young played the cards in his hand. Kevin says he’d dangle Adolis Garcia in a deal. [22:10] Joe renders his two biggest questions for the Cowboys’ season. The first: How will the offense assimilate George Pickens, who, despite massive talent, had problems in Pittsburgh. So far, so good. The other point? Tune in to find out. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices…

Texas flood death toll nears 120 as searchers scour debris for the missing 6:33

6 днів тому6:33

6:33

Nearly a week after heavy rain and flooding hit the Texas Hill Country, the search continued Wednesday for an untold number of missing people. Officials warned that the full extent of the catastrophe had yet to be revealed and unaccounted victims could still be found amid the massive piles of debris in the area that stretch for miles. In other news, office vacancies in Dallas’ downtown core have skyrocketed, prompting business and neighborhood leaders to call for better security to address crime and homelessness and bring workers and residents back. Between 2019 and 2024, vacancy rates for downtown office space surged from an average 21% to 27%; Dallas Area Rapid Transit is proposing the largest cuts in the agency’s 40-year history — and riders are pushing back. Hundreds packed the halls of DART’s downtown Dallas headquarters Tuesday evening, sharing their frustrations over nearly $60 million in proposed cuts to the agency’s buses, trains and on-demand services, along with fare changes that would leave riders paying more; and a Kentucky developer is planning to build a fully affordable apartment complex near one of the city’s logistics hubs. LDG Development, which is based in Kentucky and operates an office in Dallas, is planning to restrict the 330-unit Gateway at Trinity Forest apartment complex for residents making 60% of the area’s median income.

SportsDay Rangers, Episode 9: The one with The Thrill 42:07

7 днів тому42:07

42:07

Nope, it's not a repeat, just sounds like one. The fellas once again discuss a muddling offense that leaves the Rangers on the fringes of the playoff race. They break down the selection of Jacob deGrom to his first All-Star Game since 2021, and Evan muses on Kevin Pillar's take on the Rangers' clubhouse/chemistry. Then Will "The Thrill" Clark joins the guys to discuss joining the Rangers back when it didn't seem like a destination spot, what made the 1996 and 1998 Rangers teams special and what he thinks of hitting these days. Will might have some opinions. Finally, John cracks open the archives back to that 1996 season, which produced the Rangers' first playoff team, though there were some hairy moments late, and the clincher came in the middle of an extra-inning game.

Did Texas officials do enough to prevent flood devastation? 6:13

9 днів тому6:13

6:13

Kerr County, where dozens have died, does not have a flood warning system. The first warning came Thursday afternoon, shortly after 1 p.m. Meteorologists for the National Weather Service in New Braunfels predicted up to 7 inches of rain would fall in the flood-prone Texas Hill Country, which includes Kerr County, in the early morning hours on Friday the fourth. As the frantic search limped into a third day, grief-stricken Texans are asking if meteorologists and local officials did enough to prevent the catastrophe. Questions have emerged over whether federal job cuts by the Trump administration hobbled the weather service, and why Kerr County lacked an emergency response system.
