New biometric material for regenerative medicine: Scientists develop living hydrogel with cell nanocon positive
A new biological material developed by an engineer in Pennsylvania imitates an extracellular matrix, an important component of human tissue. The extracellular matrix acts like a scaffold so that the cells can be cured after damage. Credit: SHEIKHI RESEARCH GROUP/PENN State. Unauthorized reproduction is prohibited. According to Pennsylvania researchers, biological materials that can imitate specific actions in biological tissues may…

Geoengineering strategies against climate change could have a positive impact on agriculture
Difference in annual production (yield x planted area) between ARISE-SAI-1.5 and SSP2-4.5 for CLM5 crops (in million tons). Rice (a) and wheat (b) production is averaged from 2050 to 2069. Hatching indicates that the difference between the two experiments is not significant. India’s total rice and wheat production time series (c). Shading represents the range corresponding to one standard deviation.…

Research team achieves acceleration of positive muon to 100keV for the first time
Schematic diagram of the experimental setup. Credit: arXiv (2024). DOI: 10.48550/arxiv.2410.11367 A team of engineers and physicists from many institutions across Japan and working at the High Intensity Proton Accelerator Research Facility have demonstrated accelerating positive muons from thermal energy to 100 keV. This is the first time muons have been accelerated in a stable manner. The group published a…

Arctic ozone reaches record high in positive step for climate
Modeling representation of Arctic ozone hole recovery in 2024. Credit: Michala Garrison, NASA Earth Observatory. The Earth’s ozone hole in polar regions, where stratospheric ozone levels have been significantly reduced, has been featured frequently in climate change news in recent decades. Anthropogenic chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are the main culprit and are emitted by household products such as refrigerators, air conditioners, and…
