Surfing the web, I uncovered these new items worth sharing:

• David J. Thouless, F. Duncan M. Haldane, and J. Michael Kosterlitz were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for discoveries in condensed-matter physics that have transformed the understanding of matter that assumes strange shapes.
• New research led by scientists from the University of New Mexico Comprehensive Cancer Center shows a reduction in cervical pre-cancers in young women who received the HPV vaccine. The results were published in JAMA Oncology.
• According to researchers at the University of Southern California, wearable technology may improve cancer treatment. This project will be presented at the White House as part of the Cancer Moonshot exhibit.  Read more about this project in ScienceDaily.
