Researchers have found that certain gene patterns can show how severe an infection might be. These patterns can also hint at the chances of dying from any cause. This is big news because it means we might be able to change some risks by adjusting our lifestyle or getting treatment. The study looked

Plants have a clever way of handling stress. They use special molecules to send signals and protect themselves. These molecules are hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), nitric oxide (NO), and hydrogen sulphide (H2S). At high levels, they can cause damage. But in the right amounts, they help plants adapt to tou
The X-59 is a big step forward in making supersonic travel quieter. It's designed to fly faster than the speed of sound without creating a loud sonic boom. This is a big deal because the loud noise from supersonic flights has been a major problem in the past. The X-59 is currently being built and t
In the early hours of the morning, a car plowed into a group of people on Santa Monica Boulevard. The Los Angeles Fire Department reported that at least 20 individuals were hurt. Out of these, five are in very bad shape, and another ten are also seriously injured. This scary event took place around
Infrared (IR) imaging is a big deal. It helps in many areas like spotting objects, checking factories, and even medical scans. But there's a catch: IR images are often blurry and noisy. This makes it tough for regular object detection models to work well. To tackle this, a new method has been devel
Bird flu, or H5N1, is jumping from animals to humans more often. Labs need better tools to catch it early. Right now, most labs use tests that can spot the flu but can't tell if it's the dangerous H5N1 strain. This is a problem because knowing the exact type of flu helps doctors treat patients bette
People are looking for ways to make engines work better and pollute less. One idea is to use two different fuels at the same time. This is called RCCI, or Reactivity Controlled Compression Ignition. It uses a mix of fuels with different properties to burn more efficiently and produce fewer harmful g
Engines are getting a green makeover. Scientists have been testing different fuel mixes to make engines cleaner and more efficient. They tried six fuels: regular diesel, a biofuel called Citronella, and four blends that mix hydrogen with biofuel. The star of the show was the H40 blend, which had 40%
