Implanting a pouch of stem-cell-derived pancreas cells under the skin of type 1 diabetics has enabled them to live without insulin injections for years and maintain non-diabetic blood sugar levels, according to the results of a clinical trial. It’s a big step towards a functional cure for the disease.Continue ReadingCategory: Health & Wellbeing, LifestyleTags: Diabetes, Diabetic, Transplant,
Our solar system might still bear the scars from an extremely close shave with an alien star. Such an encounter – the closest pass we know of – would have shaken up objects on the outskirts and might even mean there’s no Planet Nine after all.Continue ReadingCategory: Space, ScienceTags: Astronomy, Stars, Planet, Planet 9, Neptune, Solar System, Moon, Leiden University
MIT scientists have coaxed atoms into an exotic “edge state” for the first time, allowing them to flow completely friction-free. The breakthrough could lead to better superconductor materials.Continue ReadingCategory: Physics, ScienceTags: Particle physics, Electron Microscopes, Electrons, Atoms, MIT, superconductor
You know how EVs and practically anything else that runs on lithium batteries aren't really all that 'green' because producing lithium takes a huge toll on the planet?Continue ReadingCategory: Materials, ScienceTags: Lithium metal, Mining, Metals
We're caught in a vicious circle of facing increasing temperatures across the planet, and combating that with air conditioning – which in turn causes global warming. A problem worth throwing a whole lot of science at, if there ever was one.Continue ReadingCategory: ScienceTags: Cooling, Shape Memory Alloys, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology
Eco Wave Power has been floating its wave energy system for more than 10 years, where the rise and fall of coastal waters drives hydraulic pistons that run a generator to produce electricity. Now the company is getting ready to build its first megawatt installation.Continue ReadingCategory: Energy, ScienceTags: Wave Power, Renewable Energy, Clean Energy
Scientists at Berkeley Lab have used a titanium beam to make atoms of element 116. Not only does this represent a new way to make the super rare element, but it stands as a proof-of-concept that they could soon potentially create the as-yet-undiscovered element 120, which may be stable.Continue ReadingCategory: Physics, ScienceTags: new element, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Atoms, Titan
