A recent study explored a new approach to improve photocatalytic performance by using alternating donor-acceptor (D-A) units in graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4). The researchers created a series of metal-free photocatalysts, named CNBTC-X, by combining g-C3N4 with different amounts of 5-bromo-2-thi
Spain is set to host the Davis Cup finals in Malaga, where tennis legend Rafael Nadal will compete in his final tournament. The 38-year-old champion, known for his 22 grand slam titles, will team up with young star Carlos Alcaraz. Though Nadal’s exact role in the team event is uncertain, he has insi
Did you know that self-promotion can be more than just boasting? For entrepreneurs, talking up their skills and ideas might be the key to improving their businesses. Recent studies show that self-promotion can boost feedback from others, pushing entrepreneurs to take initiative and adapt their busin
Have you ever wondered what's hiding in your local landfill? It turns out, it could be a warrior against pollution! One such fighter is a special strain of Bacillus subtilis, known as LLS-04, that scientists found in landfills. This tiny hero is like a superhero of the microscopic world, helping to
Ever wondered how to make catalysts that work superfast and can be easily used? Scientists figured out a way by creating tiny silver nanoparticles, called nano-Ag, and placing them in special porous supports called hyper-cross-linked supports (HCP-CC). These supports have lots of tiny holes that mak
Big bone losses are tricky to fix, and getting your own bone for a graft isn't always easy. That's where 3D printing comes in. Scientists recently created a special bone-like material using a type of polymer called poly(trimethylene carbonate) or PTMC. They mixed it with tiny bits of a bone-building
Have you ever wondered when a document on the web was created? It’s not always easy to tell, and that’s a problem. Sometimes, that little timestamp at the bottom is missing or can’t be trusted. So, scientists have come up with a clever idea: using the content of the document to figure it out. Meet
Imagine swapping your regular basketball game for a wheelchair basketball match. That's exactly what happened at New Vision High. The students tried out adaptive sports with the help of ParaSport Spokane and Paralympic stars Isaiah Rigo and Chelsea McClammer. It wasn’t as easy as they thought, but t
Adipose tissue is a dynamic organ crucial for survival roles like immune responses and thermogenesis. New studies reveal it has a complex anatomy and physiology. Vasoactive intestinal peptide, known as VIP, and its receptors (VPAC1 and VPAC2) play significant roles in various bodily functions. Howev
Did you know that cows have tiny changes in their genes that help them adapt to different places? These changes are called copy number variations (CNVs), and they're like blueprints for survival in specific environments. Ethiopia is home to some amazing cow breeds, like Abigar, Fellata, and Gojjam-
