Researchers identify cellular pathways for increasing the lifespan of C.elegans by 500%. The incredible gain of C. elegans lifespan would be equivalent to a human living for approximately 500 years. Highly conserved insulin-like signaling (IIS) and...
Researchers published a high-quality genome of one of the most poisonous snakes, the Indian Cobra. They were able to identify 19 key toxic genes primarily expressed in the venom glands. This would lead to the development of effective drugs for...
The new material can withstand being shot at by bullets traveling at 3.6 miles per second. It is extremely impressive considering the fact that this material is highly compressive, made of plastic, and contains several holes. In material design...
For the first time, researchers develop a tiny silicon chip that can propel electrons in a distance smaller than the width of a human hair. The technology could accelerate particles fast enough to perform cutting-edge experiments in material...
The new plasma accelerator can generate electron beams with energies up to 7.8 billion electron volts in just 20 centimeters. This is almost double the previous record for energy generated by plasma acceleration (set in 2014). To uncover the...
The temperature of an object increases when a beam of enough energy is illuminated on it. The thermal radiation emitted by this object could be used for super-resolution imaging at every scale. Think of three scenarios: a bat navigates its way to...
For years, many influential personalities such as Bill Gates, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg have advised their followers and audiences to read books and read books. For them, books don’t just help people become successful in life, but it also...
Airplane sewage contains a remarkably high abundance and diversity of antibiotic-resistant microbes. About 90% of these microbes are resistant to at least 1 antibiotic. Infections arose from antibiotic-resistant bacteria can be difficult to treat...
Researchers develop a wood-based material by combining graphite with nanocellulose. It is stronger and 6 times lighter than stainless steel. It could be a green alternative for constructing lightweight body armor, vehicles and aircraft. Materials...
Researchers develop a revolutionary way to keep a patient’s vaccination history. It involves storing data in quantum dot dye and injecting it under the skin along with the vaccine. The data can be read after up to 5 years using a specially...
