As prices rise and the UK Government considers energy bill help once again, a new study warns that the country’s approach to energy support is structurally geared toward short-term crisis response rather than long-term solutions.This […]
Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a destructive disease of wheat that can reduce grain yields and contaminate grain with toxins harmful to humans and livestock. The disease threatens wheat production worldwide and poses ongoing challenges […]
An international research team has reported an artificial nociceptor system that captures the temperature-dependent threshold modulation of biological nociceptors. Published in Advanced Functional Materials under the title “Temperature-Modulated Threshold Response in a Volatile Memristor: Toward […]
A research team led by the University of Bern has decoded a mechanism by which an inconspicuous succulent regulates the uptake of carbon dioxide via the leaf surface so finely that it receives enough for […]
On August 13, 2003, a single transmission line near Cleveland, Ohio, sags into an overgrown tree limb and short circuits. Within minutes, nearby lines overload and trip one after another, triggering cascading failures across grids […]
As a promising clean energy source, hydrogen (H2) requires reliable safety monitoring. However, lacking a permanent dipole moment, it is “infrared-inactive” and cannot be effectively measured by conventional absorption-based techniques. Although Raman spectroscopy can provide […]
One of the research lines of the group of the EHU-University of the Basque Country is seeking solutions to generate districts or neighborhoods whose annual net energy consumption is close to zero. Using machine learning […]
In a new study published in Science, Stanford computer scientists showed that artificial intelligence large language models are overly agreeable, or sycophantic, when users solicit advice on interpersonal dilemmas. Even when users described harmful or […]
Step into a modern office tower or hospital, and the air you breathe is often carefully engineered, filtered, circulated, and cooled at a high energy cost. Now imagine those same spaces quietly breathing on their […]
Converting sugarcane waste to biofuel could become more environmentally friendly and cost-effective, thanks to a joint project at The University of Queensland and the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi. Ph.D. candidate Neethu Joshikumar has successfully […]
