When it comes to magic tricks, we’re always skeptical of what’s up a magician’s sleeve. However, when it comes to manufacturing microchips or conducting delicate experiments, the presence of even the tiniest particles can lead to disastrous consequences. That’s why the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has developed a groundbreaking process to

Advancements in technology have brought us closer than ever to unraveling the mysteries of the human brain. From understanding thoughts to decoding speech, scientists are constantly pushing boundaries. In a new study, researchers from the University of California, Berkeley have managed to reconstruct a Pink Floyd song by interpreting brain activity. This groundbreaking research sheds
Binaural beats, the popular brain stimulation technique that promises enhanced cognitive performance, has been long endorsed as a study aid and mood enhancer. However, a recent study conducted by cognitive neuroscientists at Adam Mickiewicz University in Poland has discovered that binaural beats might actually hinder learning instead of helping it. This revelation challenges the widely-held
The world is on a trajectory towards decarbonization and electrification, with solar and wind energy playing a crucial role in this transition. However, densely populated countries in Southeast Asia and West Africa face unique challenges due to limited land availability and poor wind resources. The solution? Offshore floating solar panels. These panels, strategically positioned in
