Microorganisms play a crucial role in treating organic waste in water, like N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF). Traditional methods use graphene oxide mixed with polymers to create tiny composites, which are then stuck onto copper mesh. This creates a special material called CM@PGO. Scientists designed a

Spatial transcriptomics (ST) is revolutionizing the way scientists look at tissue structure. One key step in ST data analysis is identifying spatial domains—areas within tissue that have unique characteristics. Researchers have created a new method called GRAS4T to tackle this challenge. GRAS4T uses
Ever thought about why current pension systems might not work as well as they could? A big issue is that they don't consider how much each person has contributed to raising the next generation. This is a problem because the current pay-as-you-go (PAYG) system treats everyone the same, even if they d
Cryptography is crucial for data security in today's software systems. That's why developers are turning to static analysis tools, known as crypto-detectors, to spot and fix problems with crypto-API use. But do these tools really work? To answer this, researchers created the MASC framework. This fra
In the vast Arctic region, Russia stands out due to its unique geopolitical position. With the country's increasing interest in developing these northern territories, one major challenge is brewing: how to keep people living there and ensure there are enough workers for future projects. The problem

There are some interesting questions we can ask about this. For instance, how many different religio
A special type of ultrasound, called 3D anorectal ultrasonography, is being used to help doctors identify and treat complex anal fistulas. These fistulas are narrow tunnels connecting the anal glands to the skin surface, often caused by a condition called crypto-glandular transsphincteric fistula. D
February 12, 2018, marked a special day at Harvard University as it celebrated the 100th birthday of the renowned physicist Julian Schwinger.
