Food safety experts often worry about bacteria like Staphylococcus aureus in chicken products. This germ can survive cooking by producing toxins that don't break down with heat. The study looked at how this bacteria grows in different chicken cuts under various temperatures. Scientists tested chicke
Banks and governments are testing a new way to send money overseas. Instead of relying on old systems that often take days and involve many middlemen, they’re trying out tokenization. This means turning money into digital tokens that can travel quickly on blockchain networks. Central banks from the
Food insecurity is a tough daily fight, yet quitting smoking can feel even tougher for those who live with it. A new look at an earlier study shows how people dealing with both issues were invited to try a phone-based quit-smoking program. Some got the invite face-to-face and others saw it online. T

Banks and crypto firms just teamed up to launch a fresh kind of dollar coin called fUSD. Unlike most stablecoins that sit idle without growing, this one gives big institutions a small cut—around 3% per year—if they play by specific rules. The coin is built on existing tech used by trading desks and
Banks today look nothing like they did even five years ago. What used to be slow, paperwork-heavy processes are now running on smart software. AI isn’t just helping banks—it’s doing much of the work itself. These "agentic" AI systems don’t just follow instructions; they make decisions on the spot, w
Food isn’t always what it seems. In crime labs worldwide, scientists regularly examine foods for hidden drugs after crimes or seizures. But testing isn’t straightforward—chocolate, drinks, or even gummy candies behave differently when mixed with substances like cannabis, painkillers, or sedatives. E
