"The prospect of changing the alloy and including other refractory metals to enhance the composite for nuclear applications is particularly exciting."

"Creating a refractory metal composite with these features of well-controlled hydrogen handling combined with erosion resistance and general material resilience is a breakthrough for the design of plasma devices and fusion energy systems," Schmitz says.

He said the medical cause of Benn's death was "refractory cardiogenic shock due to taxane alkaloid poisoning, following ingestion of yew tree berries and leaves".

The study leaders say that these trials demonstrate a clear clinical benefit of the dual treatment, with the recommendation being that it become a first-line treatment for BM-LGG and a clinical option for those with relapsed/refractory BM-HGG.

In order to collect the data, researchers turned to a group of patients who have refractory epilepsy, currently untreatable by medication.
