By Erin Wayman Verified, Meghan Rosen Verified, Tina Saey Verified, Alex Fox Verified| Science News Verified Science News is collecting reader questions about how to navigate our planet's changing climate. What do you want to know about extreme heat and how it can lead to extreme weather events? Oncologist Steven Rosenberg of the U.S. National Cancer Institute became intrigued by the body’s potential for fighting cancer in 1968 after encountering a patient whose tumors spontaneously disappeared, presumably due to the immune system. It took decades to go from that kernel of an idea to the new TIL therapy.

Here’s another with the same pattern: 15, 19, 23. One more: 232, 235, 238. “Three equally spaced things,” says Raghu Meka, a computer scientist at UCLA. “That’s probably the simplest pattern you can imagine.” Yet for almost a century, mathematicians in the field of combinatorics have been puzzling out how to know whether an endless list of numbers contains such a sequence, called an arithmetic progression.
