The Phoenix Suns have reached a deal to hire former Los Angeles Lakers head coach Frank Vogel, multiple US media outlets reported on Friday. Vogel, 49, led LeBron James, Anthony Davis and the rest of the Lakers to the 2020 championship in the Covid-protective bubble in Orlando, Florida. The Lakers fired Vogel after they missed the playoffs in the 2021-22 season, with Darvin Ham stepping in and leading the Lakers to the Western Conference finals — where they were swept by the Denver Nuggets. ESPN reported Friday that the Suns and Vogel were finalizing a deal that will see him take over after Phoenix fired coach Monty Williams in May — after they were eliminated in six games in the Western Conference semi-finals by the Nuggets.

Troubles in the US banking sector are weighing on stock market sentiments for local lenders, which were supposed to be a safe bet in 2023 on expectations that rising interest rates would boost profitability from their robust loan portfolios. But the collapse of US lenders Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank set off a wave of worry across the globe and local banking stocks were not spared from the selloff. As investors rethink their current portfolios, leading online stockbrokerage house COL Financial Group noted that concerns were so far overblown and domestic banks were more than adequately capitalized and have ample liquidity, partly thanks to financial market reforms that were implemented in the wake of the 2008 global financial crisis.

An international phase 3 clinical trial, done in participation with Weill Cornell Medicine and NewYork-Presbyterian, found that a new targeted treatment called zolbetuximab, given in combination with a standard chemotherapy, extended survival for patients with advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancer that overexpressed a specific biomarker. Results from the GLOW study , published July 31 in Nature Medicine, together with results from the parallel SPOTLIGHT study that evaluated zolbetuximab with an alternative standard chemotherapy, prompted the United States Food and Drug Administration to grant priority review to the manufacturer's biologic license application and set January 12, 2024, as the target decision date.

An interdisciplinary team of mathematicians, engineers, physicists, and medical scientists has uncovered an unexpected link between pure mathematics and genetics, that reveals key insights into the structure of neutral mutations and the evolution of organisms. Number theory, the study of the properties of positive integers, is perhaps the purest form of mathematics. At first sight, it may seem far too abstract to apply to the natural world. In fact, the influential American number theorist Leonard Dickson wrote 'Thank God that number theory is unsullied by any application.
