AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Rare Earth Push: Cyclic Materials secured $75M to speed rare-earth recycling and refining, with a South Carolina campus planned for late 2026 and Arizona operations starting mid-2026—aimed at boosting domestic supply for AI, semiconductors, defense and more. Health Tech & Research: A new gel-based approach reportedly turns brain-support cells into neurons and is already working in Alzheimer’s mice, pointing to a potential route for neuron replacement. Neuroscience Breakthrough: The same Alzheimer’s-focused study highlights how coaxing cell fate could help address the lack of natural neuron regrowth. Public Health & Environment: South Carolina farm sludge is under fresh scrutiny as a Yale scientist maps PFAS “forever chemical” hot spots tied to biosolids spreading. Local Infrastructure: SC Ports and the U.S. Army Corps will study deepening the North Charleston Terminal channel to improve competitiveness. Consumer Tech Rights: A South Carolina right-to-repair group warns subscription and software locks are eroding ownership, using a Myrtle Beach stop on a national tour. Wildlife Watch: Joro spiders are spreading through the Smokies, and officials want sightings documented.
