Cannabis research with human subjects faces a big problem. The rules are not clear. This makes it hard for scientists to do their work. Many researchers want to study cannabis. But they hit roadblocks. The rules are not the same everywhere. This makes things confusing. Scientists often start their
A recent study on tungsten oxide films has been pulled back. The research was about how adding molybdenum ions and heating affects the surface and electrical properties of these films. The goal was to see if they could be used in photonic devices. But why was it retracted? The journal Heliyon decid
Tiny robots, smaller than a grain of salt, have been created. These robots can move, sense their surroundings, and make decisions all by themselves. They are powered by light and can work for months without stopping. These tiny robots are the result of a collaboration between researchers at the Uni
In today's fast-paced world, keeping our minds strong is super important. But can apps and websites really help us bounce back from stress?
