With the global population projected to reach nearly 10 billion by 2050, prioritizing rapid and accurate monitoring is crucial. Researchers emphasize the need for collaboration across various fields, including agronomy, engineering, medicine, and materials science, to harness the full potential of new technologies.

A new research has revealed that the manner in which our brain learns things is different and better than the way artificial systems learn. This insight may help AI developers to develop better learning algorithms in their systems.

Brazilian researchers have made an exciting breakthrough in the field of biotechnology by uncovering two previously unknown peptides within the venom of two snake species. These newly identified peptides are derived from hemorrhagic toxins, and they hold great potential for addressing high blood pressure.

Tecan has introduced its new Frida Reader which is capable of eliminating nucleic acid sample loss. This unique solution further expands the firm’s portfolio of workflow automation solutions and reagents.

Researchers examined the links between childhood diet and arterial stiffness in adolescence and found out that eating a diet high in calories, fat and sugar, and low in fibre at a young age was related with stiffer arteries in adolescence.

KBR has collaborated with The Henry M. Jackson Foundation for the Advancement of Military Medicine for supporting neuroscience research for service members. The research will specifically focus on those affected by traumatic brain injuries.

A comprehensive study reveals the profound impact of sleep loss on emotional well-being. Analyzing over 50 years of research and 154 studies, it shows that sleep deprivation reduces positive emotions like joy and happiness, while increasing anxiety symptoms.

Researchers have developed a new transistor which can mimic the human brain and is capable of higher-level thinking. The device can not only carry out simple machine-learning tasks to categorize data but is also capable of performing associative learning.

Etavolt, a spin-off from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, introduces an innovative device that rejuvenates old solar panels, enhancing their performance and longevity. This technology, designed to combat degradation from light and heat, is particularly effective in tropical regions and marks a significant step towards sustainable solar energy practices.

A new follow-up study has revealed that a sedentary lifestyle during a person’s childhood to young adulthood phase can lead to a build-up of body fat and abdominal fat. It further adds that light physical activity can help to reverse the obesity condition in such people.
