Optical coherence tomography (OCT) images can get blurry due to dispersion, especially when there's a wide spectrum of light involved. This hurts the quality of the images and makes it hard to see important details. Researchers have found a clever and affordable way to fix this using a type of artif
===== Ever wondered how the shape and layout of tiny transistors can affect their speed? Well, let's dive into how different designs like nanosheets, nanowires, FinFETs, and TreeFETs perform in the world of radio frequency (RF) signals. Designers have been trying out some clever tricks to boost th
Did you know that flies on cattle farms could be spreading antibiotic resistance? Let's dive into a study that explored this. Researchers wanted to figure out where antibiotic-resistant bacteria come from on a farm that doesn't use certain strong antibiotics. They tested other things like different
Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is a growing concern globally, with limited effective treatments available. There’s a drug called ivermectin that could potentially change the game. Usually used against parasites, ivermectin has shown promise in slowing down cancer growth in lab studies. Sc
Heart diseases are a global issue, causing widespread illness and death. While we have treatments like medicines and surgeries, they don't always work perfectly. That's where nanocarriers come in. These miniature assistants can enhance how drugs work and reduce their side effects. They also make det
China recently did something unusual. They sold $2 billion worth of bonds in Saudi Arabia. These bonds are special because they’re paid back in U. S. dollars. This seems like a simple financial move, but analysts think there might be more to it. First, let’s talk about interest rates. China got rat
Admiral Samuel Paparo, who heads the U. S. Indo-Pacific Command (INDOPACOM), recently warned about the potential for Russia to boost China's submarine technology, thereby challenging U. S. naval dominance in the region. During a security forum, Paparo expressed concerns about Russia sharing its adva
The climate finance deal agreed at Cop29 has faced criticism from negotiators of some countries. The deal aims to triple the amount of money given to poorer countries to fight climate change, but it falls short of the $1. 3 trillion requested by developing nations. Instead, it sets a goal of $300 bi
You know how sometimes friends fight over who gets the last piece of pizza? Well, imagine if that pizza was a top job in the government. That's basically what happened with Donald Trump's pick for a key finance role. Two of Trump's closest finance buddies, Scott Bessent and Howard Lutnick, were in a
Cervical cancer ranks high on the list of health issues that affect many women around the world. While it can be both prevented and cured, it remains a significant cause of death for women in Ghana. This study delves into the personal journeys of women battling cervical cancer, highlighting their st
