Scientists Found a Weird New Way to Wash Fruits and Vegetables

by

A bubble bath doesn’t just feel good. Apparently, it’s now a scientifically tested way to give produce, medical equipment, and industrial materials a gentle, chemical-free cleaning session. For a recent study described in a Droplet paper, researchers at Cornell University devised a technique that injects tiny bubbles alongside a low-frequency sound wave in water. This … Read more

by

# A novel catalyst design enables simultaneous control of lattice structure and oxygen vacancies in molybdenum oxide through iron (Fe) substitution, with the study selected as a cover article in a leading international journal. # Achieves high water electrolysis performance using low-cost, non-precious metal-based catalysts, with strong potential for applications in eco-friendly hydrogen production and … Read more

Ageing Germany looks to India to fill job slots, from healthcare to IT to plumbing

by

Germany is grappling with a shortage of skilled workers, seemingly driven by long-term demographic decline. With an ageing population and very few young people entering the labour force, Europe’s largest economy is increasingly looking abroad to sustain its workforce. Among the countries stepping into this gap, India has emerged as a key partner. The shift, … Read more

How Formula 1 turns data & cyber security into speed

by

Formula 1 is well known for its precision engineering pedigree and where races are won and lost by mere milliseconds. While it has long been data driven, attention to security and resilience are deepening. To dig into those themes, I was delighted to be joined by industry peers and the Atlassian Williams F1 team on … Read more
