Industrial designer, Joe Doucet, has invented a thermochromic paint that changes colour as outside temperatures rise and fall. He claims that by shifting with the seasons, the changing colours reduce energy needs for heating and cooling in the home by as much as 25% annually.
Defunding climate science in Australia led to a grassroots crowdfunding of the country's independent Climate Council. With the Trump administration making cuts to the EPA, NOAA and climate-related initiatives funded through the IRA, the country's collective climate science knowledge and programs can be rescued by a similar crowdfunding effort.
Having mapped the human genome and developed tools to reconstruct it, we now have the means to change ourselves to better fit the places where we want to go. That includes going off world to live on Mars and other planets.
When the word automation comes up, most workers see the potential for their jobs to disappear. That, however, is far from true with technologies like digitization and AI being more transformational than job-eliminating. We look at how these technologies are being used by welders, plumbers and landscapers as examples.
AI is increasingly seen as a gamechanger for medical diagnostics described as an industry-wide paradigm shift. When building these generative AI and machine learning tools, data is the key. Using synthetic data based on scanned images means greater identification and predictive capacity with AI demonstrating 98% diagnostic accuracy.
A remarkable new pacemaker smaller than a grain of rice has been invented at Northwestern University to treat arrhythmias associated with numerous congenital heart diseases. The device requires no battery and can be adapted for other electrotherapy applications.
Peter Diamandis reflects on the future of children using AI and human longevity reinforcing his belief in how transformative is the time we are living in. From the potential to redefine humanity's purpose, to reshaping children's education, we are entering a period of democratization that's so universal it has immense possibilities.
New research into mRNA vaccines shows they have long-term positive effects that provide broad protection against more than the infections they were developed to target. Anti-vaxxers in the U.S. want to put an end to mRNA vaccine research led by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. who controls the funding for America's National Institutes of Health.
Enter Electronic Data Capture (EDC) software presents a transformative technology that is revolutionizing how clinical trials are conducted and, in turn is enhancing patient care. These tools are designed to collect, manage, and store clinical trial data electronically unlike traditional paper-based methods.
