SUMMARY: Experts are examining the recent deadly crash at St. Louis Lambert International Airport. Current and retired pilots express sympathy for the victims’ families and suggest that human errors may have contributed to the tragedy. A retired military pilot explained that a helicopter involved in a training exercise could have collided with a landing commercial plane due to visibility issues. Communication records indicate the helicopter pilot believed they were aware of nearby traffic. Federal regulators will investigate to determine preventive measures moving forward. The NTSB will release an initial report, followed by a more comprehensive investigation, the timeline of which remains uncertain.

The National Transportation Safety Board has yet to determine the cause of Wednesday’s deadly crash involving a military helicopter and a commercial flight in Washington, D.C.

SUMMARY: The Gateway Arch in downtown St. Louis recently highlighted a promising treatment for lymphoma, the most common cancer in dogs and humans. Professor Jeffrey Bryan from the University of Missouri College of Veterinary Medicine discussed how a dog named Sadie played a pivotal role in this research. Sadie received CAR T-cell therapy, which involves engineering human cells to attack canine cancer cells. This innovative approach is cost-effective and allows for quicker treatment. Sadie’s progress is tracked via PET scans, aiding the understanding of how these engineered cells move in the body, which could improve outcomes for both dogs and humans in cancer treatment.
