“Dr. CaBot” goes head-to-head with a human expert to work through a challenging medical case

Once cyber attackers gain access to a facility’s industrial control systems, the priority shifts from threat prevention to ensuring that critical operations can continue safely and without severe consequences. Led by Dr. Faisal Khan, department head of the Artie McFerrin Department of Chemical Engineering and Director of the Mary Kay O’Connor Process Safety Center (MKOPSC) at Texas A&M University, researchers have published a paper addressing the challenge of protecting processing facilities from cyber threats through a newly established framework, which highlights current problems and outlines proposed solutions.

There may be a way to protect brain energy to preserve cognition — and the secret could lie on your plate. Think fish and seafood, meat, non-starchy vegetables, berries, nuts, seeds, eggs and even high-fat dairy products.

University of Missouri researchers are now testing just how powerful these foods can be. They’ve found that a high fat, low carb diet — known as the ketogenic diet — may not only preserve brain health but also stop or slow the signs of cognitive decline for those at higher risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease.
