Climate change is altering our planet, making it crucial to predict air quality accurately. This study looks at how particulate matter (PM10) levels might change under various future climate scenarios from the CMIP6 model. They used a combination of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) and Nonlinear Au
Over the last half-century, the field of neuromechanics has made giant leaps forward. This year marks the 50th anniversary of the International Society of Biomechanics, and it's a great time to look back at how far we've come. Neuromechanics is all about understanding how our brains control our move
Imagine a water model like WaSiM-ETH thriving in the hilly regions, but it's the flatlands of Northern Germany where it stole the show. While it handled slight inclines with ease, the model faced some bumps in completely flat areas. The key to its success? Understanding how different soil types and
Scientists have come up with a clever method to compare how yeast cells stick together on a large scale with how strongly individual molecules hold on. They used yeast surface display to show off their molecular catch, like a tiny, living display board. By spinning a glass covered in sticky stuff ar
Some big names in business are making waves before the stock market opens. Lululemon's shares jumped by 9% after they did better than expected in the last quarter and gave an okay outlook for the holidays. Samsara, a software company, saw its stock drop by 9% because their future plans weren't as ex
Have you ever wondered how tiny particles like cells can be moved around in tiny tubes? Scientists often use something called acoustofluidics to do this. It's like using sound to control the dance of these particles. One common tool for this is a microchannel made of a material called polydimethylsi
In an unexpected turn of events, several major health insurance companies have made changes to their websites following a tragic incident. UnitedHealthcare, Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, and Elevance Health have all removed their leadership pages. This action comes after the CEO of UnitedHealthcare
As the world grapples with global warming, frequent extreme weather events are becoming a norm. China, known for its rapid urban growth, is no exception. Scientists have taken a close look at how climate and land conditions might change in the future and found that while drought-ridden areas might d
It's still too early to predict this year's Christmas snow, but historical data gives us some hints. AccuWeather looked at weather patterns from 1991 to 2020 and found that big cities like Denver and Chicago have the best chances, about 1 in 3, for a white Christmas. Indianapolis and Boston come nex
Ever heard of cover crops? They're like the superheroes of farming, fighting climate change one field at a time. Unlike the usual crops we know, cover crops are grown when the main crops aren't there. They do something amazing – they suck up carbon from the air and store it in the soil. This helps t
