Broadway’s Jellicle Ball Turns Cats into a Queer Ballroom Revival

A fresh Broadway revival of Cats, titled The Jellicle Ball, retools the show as a joyful queer ballroom experience led by a young, New York–trained ensemble alongside veteran stars; it preserves much of Weber’s score while injecting bass-driven, club-like energy and ball culture sensibilities. The result is a celebratory reinvention that broadens Cats’ appeal and showcases new talent, though some moments feel conventional rather than fully transformative.

Cryopreserved brain tissue briefly reawakens, hinting at future organ preservation

Cryopreserved brain tissue briefly reawakens, hinting at future organ preservation

German researchers vitrified thin mouse brain slices containing the hippocampus, then thawed them rapidly to reveal intact neural connections, active mitochondria, and responsive neurons, with evidence of long-term potentiation. They also tested preserving an entire mouse brain by circulating cryoprotectants, but viability was limited to hours and memory retention was not assessed. While the results hint at medical benefits such as slowing injury-related damage and enabling organ storage, the approach is early-stage and far from reviving whole brains or memories.
