STOCKHOLM (AP) — Two scientists won the Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine on Monday for their discovery of microRNA, tiny bits of genetic material that offer a way for scientists to control what’s happening in our cells and that could lead to new ways of detecting and treating diseases including cancer. The work by Americans Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun is “proving to be fundamentally important for how organisms develop and function,” according to a panel that awarded the prize in Stockholm.

Ambros and Ruvkun were initially interested in genes that control the timing of different genetic developments, ensuring that cell types develop at the right time. Their discovery ultimately “revealed a new dimension to gene regulation, essential for all complex life forms,” the panel said.

Markets: Stocks soared last week despite concerns about geopolitics after new government data showed companies were hiring in full force last month.

Some other highlights:

  • The unemployment rate fell 0.1 percentage point to 4.1%.
  • The underemployment rate (for people working part-time but who want to be working more and so-called “discouraged workers”) also dropped for the first time in about a year.
  • The biggest employment gains last month came from sectors like hospitality and construction, and hourly pay inched up about 0.4%, which if you zoom out, means wages are up 4% compared to a year ago.

Plus, August’s revised jobs report showed the US actually created 159,000 jobs, up from 142,000 initially reported last month.
