Alcohol leads to large decreases in brain tissue electrical conductivity
WEBAug 8, 2024 · Ethanol alters brain tissue conductivity in social drinkers. Neuroscience Research Australia and UNSW Science researchers studied how alcohol affects the brain’s ability to conduct electricity, essential for normal brain functions like thinking, moving, and remembering. The study found that alcohol has sedative effects on the brain.
Transparent solar cells with flexibility, and high-efficiency
WEBJan 20, 2020 · Inside the solar cells, scientists have embedded silicon rods in a flexible and transparent polymer material. When the light passes between polymer materials without silicon rods, it appears entirely transparent to the human eye. It is also designed to control the sunlight reflected from the silicon rods, thus offer high-efficiency.
Improving blood tests’ ability to detect and monitor cancer
WEBJan 19, 2024 · A liquid biopsy for tumor analysis is a method that allows for noninvasive access to tumor-related information by using a simple blood draw instead of a surgical procedure. This approach is advantageous because it can detect tumor DNA even when the tumor’s exact location is unknown. However, circulating tumor DNA is …
Cell nuclei control eye and brain tissues during embryonic …
WEBAug 13, 2024 · In zebrafish, the jamming of nuclei during eye development also results in a crystalline order of cells. In addition to the eye, the team discovered that brain tissues also experience nuclear jamming, indicating a new role for the nucleus in shaping neural tissue architecture. This finding suggests that defects at the nuclear level could lead ...
Harvesting large-scale raindrop energy using solar panel technology
WEBJul 22, 2023 · Now, researchers at Tsinghua University in Shenzhen, China, have modeled D-TENG panels after solar panel arrays to make harvesting raindrop energy more efficient, broadening its application. Researchers took inspiration from the design of solar panels in which multiple solar power generation units are connected in parallel to supply the load.
Hackers can steal data via cooling fan vibrations
WEBCredit: arXiv:2004.06195 [cs.CR] Israeli scientists have found a way through which hackers can steal sensitive data from the highly secured computer just by tapping into the vibrations from a cooling system fan. Hackers can encode data into fan vibrations that could be transmitted to a smartphone placed in the vicinity of the targeted computer.
Our infant solar system had to have been doughnut-shaped
WEBJun 21, 2024 · The latest research suggests that initially, our solar disk probably didn’t have a ring-like structure. Instead, our planetary disk resembled a doughnut, and asteroids containing iridium and platinum-rich metal grains moved to the outer disk as it expanded quickly. However, this presented another mystery for the researchers.
