ROBOTS VS THE BIG C

Here are two stats to
make you sit up: 10
million people require
surgery to prevent
corneal blindness,
while five million suffer
total blindness through
corneal scarring.
However, Newcastle
University has made an
incredible breakthrough
via stem cells, a collagen
made up of alginate and
collagen and relatively
low-budget 3D printing.

Artificial Intelligence
has had a bumpy ride in
fiction, but it could become
a rampant force for good
with the news it will be used
to detect cancer. "AI has
the potential to improve
almost every aspect of the
cancer discovery process:
to make detection earlier,
more decisive, treatments
more effective, with fewer
side-effect and lower rates
of remission," explains
Professor Ian McLoughlin.

RANT AND RIDE
You've arrived at work
- livid. You cycled to
Balham, whereupon the
Northern line was, frankly,
a joke. Now you're in the
office, you want to rant...
Please hold that thought;
an active commute is good
for you. Yes, travelling by
public transport, bike or
walking can help you live
longer; it could cut the risk
of ischaemic heart disease or
stroke by 11%, according to a
combined university report.

STERLING
ON THE RISE
We wouldn't be doing
our job as Balance's Good
News section if we didn't
try to lift someone up
who'd been knocked down
of late. So let's hear it for
Raheem Sterling. The
Premier League champion
has displayed incredible
generosity of spirit across
his career, and continues
to support charitable
causes. In the wake of the
Grenfell Tower disaster,
for example,he donated a
"substantial" amount to
try to help those affected,
while in 2016 he became
an ambassador with the
Greater Manchester High
Sheriff 's Police Trust in
a bid to persuade youths
to avoid a life of crime.
And, as someone from a
council estate who worked
hard to hone a craft and
become successful, he's
an inspiration. We're
investing in Sterling.

Education
LESSNESS IS MORE
As any therapist will tell
you, many psychological
issues can be traced back
to childhood. So kudos to
Lessness Heath Primary
School in Kent, the first
school to win the Optimus
Education Wellbeing in
School Award. The impact of
the award has seen a fall in
staff absenteeism, happier
and more engaged pupils.

ETERNAL SLEEP
If you're one of those
lucky 
who manages to have
a lie-in, then you really
are one of life's winners
(and we mean proper
lie-ins; drinking to
unconsciousness doesn't
count). That's because the
Journal of Sleep Research
has found that having a
lie-in can lower mortality
rates. So if you've not
had much sleep during
the working week, it is
possible to play catch-up
at the weekend. When
your flatmate calls you
lazy for staying in bed,
you're merely trying to
prolong your time on
Earth. Heck, if anything,
you're a hero.
