The tool has already been introduced in the Qiboshan Hospital in Zhengzhou, Henan, and plans are underway to expand it to a further 100 sites.
"At the end of the day, fighting climate change is really what we need to be advocating for."
A team of researchers from the US and China has developed a passive, solar-powered desalinization system that could quench the thirst of remote, arid coastal areas on the cheap. The system employs several layers of solar evaporators and condensers stacked on top of each other in a vertical array, topped off with an insulating layer […]
"This approach can be applied to other antibiotics and help us discover new ones," the team explains.
I'm always happy when kids are safe.
All the sci-fi I read as a kid is becoming just sci.
"Beyond economic considerations, the paramount objective of a health-care system is to save lives," the authors rightly point out.
We want it, we treasure it, we go to great lengths to attain it.
It's real, it's dangerous, but some people want to make it seem like a joke.
To err is human. But, to confidently persist in erring is hilarious.
Not everyone is happy with their current definition.
Practice makes perfect!
The heavier the load, the higher their energy efficiency.
Let's not make a habit out of it.
If you're horny and you know it clap your... flippers?
I have the utmost respect for everyone who made this happen.
It's an observational study, so take it with a grain of salt.
An exciting, and compact, alternative to skin grafts.
1+1 = society, eventually.
Light pollution is really messing up their romantic life.
It doesn't stop viruses; it destroys them.
Climate change will force species to migrate in search of ideal living conditions, and a new paper estimates where they’ll go in order to inform conservation efforts. Each species has a set of conditions it likes to live in — a certain amount of light, a temperature that’s just right, certain habitats to act as […]
"This the first time modern technology has been used to explore the brain of this amazing animal."
New research is allowing solar cells to work at night. Although it sounds like fantasy, Jeremy Munday, a professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of California (UC) Davis says it’s completely possible. In fact, a new study by Munday and graduate student Tristan Deppe describes a specially-designed photovoltaic cell […]
Fossil footprints from the Karoo Basin of southern Africa could teach us more about how ecosystems respond to truly massive volcanic eruptions. The Karoo Basin is covered in extensive basaltic lava flows from the Early Jurassic. It’s believed that the intense volcanic activity recorded during that time had a powerful impact on global climate and […]
She's my spirit animal.
Don't "hurray". This isn't actually good news.
This could revolutionize the field of crop protection.
It's buzzing with knowledge.
When it rains, it pours.
It all depends on where we get the timber, though.
If it has carbon, this research team is interested in baking it to a crisp.
"We hope this research will empower urban planners and local decision-makers to prepare to accept populations displaced by sea-level rise."
"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.”
One of the world's most unique mammals is heading for extinction.
It's a big problem, for sure, but we're big problem solvers.
Its name shares a root with the Latin word 'spumam' ('foam').
A set of fossils collected 35 years ago belonged to the oldest-known scorpion species to date, a new study reports. The scorpion lived around 437 million years ago and was surprisingly versatile, having the ability to breathe both on land and underwater, the team explains. This fossil helps us make better sense not only of […]
The level of detail is really astonishing.
"The decade that just ended is clearly the warmest decade on record."
It's not ready yet, but it is promising.
Straight-up nightmare fuel.
A functional cure would be a life-changer for millions across the world.
No need to overdo it.
"This suggests that loss of synapses could underlie the development of schizophrenia," the authors explain.
With great impact comes great responsibility.
You can't adapt to gettin' stabbed.
They can move, carry loads, and repair themselves.
If you can't beat them, jump into a canal.
"We must harness these advances and set in place policies that provide healthier foods for people everywhere, especially those who can currently least afford them."
