Nevada – September 22, 2026 -- i-80 Gold Corp. reported initial results from 35 drill holes at its Mineral Point open pit project in Nevada, with 19 step-out holes outside the existing mineral resource all encountering mineralization, over half returning more than 100 meters of gold and silver intercepts.

Step-out drilling extends mineralized footprint east of known deposit

Of the 35 holes reported, 15 step-out holes were drilled east of the deposit, three to the north, and one to the west. Tyler Hill, VP Geology, said initial results suggest potential to extend mineralization by approximately one kilometer along strike and 300 meters in width. The eastern zone was previously drilled sparsely by Homestake Mining Company in the early 1990s but was not advanced due to depth and gold price constraints at the time.

Fort Lauderdale, Fla. – September 22, 2026 -- CentralReach has launched ReportDraftAI, an AI-assisted tool that compiles authorization, clinical and progress data into a review-ready report draft for Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs), cutting a process that typically takes 9-12 hours per learner into a fraction of that non-billable time.

BCBAs spend 46% of their time on non-billable documentation, nearly double clinical guidelines

A 2025 study in Behavior Analysis in Practice found behavior analysts devote approximately 46% of their time to indirect activities such as reporting, data analysis and treatment plan development, against a recommended 25-30%. The same documentation load correlates with burnout: 72% of ABA practitioners report medium-to-high burnout tied to reporting demands.

San Diego – September 22, 2026 -- Circular Genomics and Altoida have entered a collaboration pairing blood-based circular RNA (circRNA) biomarkers with AI-powered digital cognitive testing to accelerate Alzheimer's drug development and build a scalable frontline diagnostic pathway.

Companies design a two-step diagnostic workflow combining digital and molecular data

The alliance links Circular Genomics' CircPathTM circRNA biomarker platform with Altoida's Digital NeuroMarkerTM platform. The proposed workflow starts with a 10-minute, self-administered digital cognitive assessment, followed by a confirmatory circRNA blood test to validate underlying disease biology. The companies say this sequence could reduce dependence on hours-long, specialist-administered neuropsychological batteries and extend Alzheimer's screening into primary care settings.
