When someone gets a serious skin injury, like bad burns, certain skin conditions, or injuries from accidents, it can mess up the nerves in the skin. This means they might not be able to feel things properly, which is not only a huge deal for staying safe and healthy but also can be really tough…

The Korean artificial sun, known as KSTAR, recently set a new record for plasma operation time. This achievement came shortly after it received upgrades to its diverters, which are critical components that come into contact with the plasma, by switching to tungsten monoblocks. The Korea Institute of Fusion Energy (KFE) reported that during its latest…

Imagine using tiny gadgets that can charge themselves by just hanging out in the breeze or even from the energy when you move. That’s what scientists are trying out with these cool gadgets called electrostatic generators. They’re hoping these gadgets can power up stuff in the Internet of Things – that’s like smart watches, home…

So, get this: A bunch of brainiacs trailed by camera-toting adventurers deep in the uncharted Amazon just stumbled upon a humongous snake that’s been slithering under the radar. We’re talking about a mega-sized snake that could star in its own horror flick. Professor Bryan Fry and his crew of intrepid researchers from The University of…

So, get this: whales and dolphins, right? They’re out there munching on their seafood platter, snagging fish, squid, and the occasional crab, which is how they get all their important nutrients. But here’s the catch – while they’re feasting, they’re also gulping down some nasty heavy metals that shouldn’t be on the menu. We’ve bumped…

We’ve got some scintillating news straight from the hallowed halls of Stanford that could supercharge your computers!

Stanford’s brainiacs have developed a phase-change memory that’s looking to shake things up, a potential game-changer in universal…

The rapid pace of electrifying society brings hope for the climate. However, shifting away from fossil fuels to renewable sources like wind introduces new, yet unknown risks. A recent study conducted by researchers from Concordia and Hydro-Quebec shed light on this topic at the 2023 IEEE International Conference on Communications, Control, and Computing Technologies for…

Okay, that was lame but this news sure isn’t. In central New Jersey, a research initiative is taking shape at the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL). Led by principal engineer Yuhu Zhai, the lab is constructing a new High-Field Magnet Test Facility. This facility will provide powerful magnets for scientific experiments to researchers at PPPL,…

Scientists from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore), have developed and simulated a groundbreaking method to generate highly focused and precisely controlled X-rays. This innovative technique is up to a thousand times more intense than traditional methods, opening the door to ultra-high-quality X-ray imaging for accurate detection of flaws in semiconductors. Not only does this…
