As the saying goes, there are plenty more fish in the sea—but climate change is rapidly challenging that notion, with fish stocks around the world under threat. New modeling from Monash University predicts how climate […]
Researchers seeking to understand the impact of smartphones on driving safety have a warning for music fans: Release day might be dangerous. The study, described in a working paper published last month by the National […]
A new Tasmanian Institute of Agriculture (TIA) study has found that while regenerative agriculture practices can improve soil health and reduce emissions on sheep farms, farmers often face trade-offs between environmental and economic goals. The […]
AI-powered toys that “talk” with young children should be more tightly regulated and carry new safety kitemarks, according to a report that warns they are not always developed with children’s psychological safety in mind. The […]

While the world sprints toward ever faster mobile speeds, another connectivity story is quietly unfolding at the opposite end of the dial. Low-frequency spectrum—the radio bands below one gigahertz (GHz)—is emerging as a practical workhorse […]
A robot task AI capable of learning and performing everyday repetitive tasks in a human-like manner has been developed. The AI learns tasks through human demonstrations and executes complex tasks step by step based on […]
A study has traced thousands of conserved regulatory elements back 300 million years, revealing deep principles of plant genome evolution—a discovery that could pave the way for more precise engineering of crop traits.This post was […]
With a price tag of $600—$500 with a student discount—Apple’s new MacBook Neo releasing today is shaking up the entry-level PC market and education sector, competing squarely with similarly priced Windows laptops and Chromebooks.This post […]
A team of international scientists, including researchers at the Donald Danforth Plant Science Center, reports a major advance in sorghum genomics: a powerful new resource designed to speed discovery of traits that help crops thrive […]
