Scientist discovered world's oldest ancestor of mammals in Mallorca

Dec 17, 2024 | techexplorist.com | Ashwini Sakharkar

An international team of researchers led by the Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont (ICP) and the Museu Balear de Ciències Naturals (MUCBO | MBCN) has made an extraordinary discovery: a fossilized creature that roamed the Earth between 270 and 280 million years ago, in what is now Mallorca.
Researchers uncover new insights into blood vessel formation

Dec 17, 2024 | techexplorist.com | Ashwini Sakharkar

Blood vessels are vital for our body, transporting essential nutrients and oxygen through circulating blood. During vessel formation, cells first form local lumens, which then fuse to create a continuous tubular network. The junctions between the individual cells must be well sealed and stable to ensure vascular integrity and to prevent leakage. In two studies, Prof.
New 3D concrete printing method captures carbon dioxide

Dec 17, 2024 | techexplorist.com | Ashwini Sakharkar

Researchers at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore (NTU Singapore) have created a new 3D concrete printing technique that captures carbon, unveiling a novel approach to lessen the construction industry’s environmental impact.
New research explores nanobubble stability

Dec 17, 2024 | techexplorist.com | Ashwini Sakharkar

Gases play a crucial role in countless chemical reactions, and bubbles serve as a means to trap these gases in solution. Unlike larger bubbles, nanobubbles exhibit remarkable stability—they can persist in a solution much longer without rupturing. This enhanced stability enables a greater concentration of gases in the solution, significantly increasing the time available for critical chemical reactions to take place.
Agricultural trade is three times more harmful to biodiversity

Dec 17, 2024 | techexplorist.com | Ashwini Sakharkar

It has long been recognized that intensive agricultural practices in tropical areas affect local biodiversity, but the influence of trade has been underappreciated, according to researchers from Technical University of Munich (TUM) and ETH Zurich. Previously, it was estimated that 20 to 30 percent of biodiversity decline in these regions resulted from agricultural exports.
New model significantly reduces computational requirements

Dec 16, 2024 | techexplorist.com | Ashwini Sakharkar

In today’s fast-evolving landscape of artificial intelligence and machine learning, image-to-image translation using Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) has emerged as a powerful tool for transforming image styles. These innovative models utilize two input images: a content image that gets modified to reflect the style of a reference image.
New technique addresses structural vulnerabilities in 3D-printed objects

Dec 16, 2024 | techexplorist.com | Ashwini Sakharkar

Interfaces play a vital role in both natural and engineered systems, significantly influencing vital biological, ecological, and technological characteristics that enhance performance, functionality, and user experience. However, achieving accurate control over interfaces presents considerable challenges in both conventional and additive manufacturing. The limitations in scalability often obstruct the precise deposition of quasi-2D layers within 3D structures.
Innovative antenna technology for 6G wireless comminication

Dec 16, 2024 | techexplorist.com | Ashwini Sakharkar

Flexible frequency controls are essential in numerous photonic and electronic applications, which include communications systems, spectroscopy, metrology, and quantum information processing. Unfortunately, current solutions utilizing nonlinear bulk media, the electro-optic effect, and nonlinear metasurfaces offer limited spectral controllability, allowing only a few harmonic orders to be adjusted independently.
Nanofluidic devices enable precise manipulation of single DNA nanoparticles

Dec 16, 2024 | techexplorist.com | Ashwini Sakharkar

Achieving the great ambitions of utilizing tiny entities—such as molecules, viruses, and nanoparticles—as fundamental building blocks to create vital macromolecules and materials is a significant objective within the scientific community, similar to building intricate structures with Lego. However, realizing this vision entails overcoming significant hurdles.

It’s that season when many of us can relax and enjoy some much-needed time off. However, whether you opt for the TV remote or a favourite book, your choice may impact your long-term cognitive health, according to researchers from the University of South Australia. Examining the daily activity patterns of 397 older adults (aged 60+), researchers discovered that the nature or type of activity you partake in matters when it comes to brain health.
