Researchers at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology in Saudi Arabia have introduced NESCOD, a new passive cooling technology. This innovative system addresses the rising global need for cooling solutions without depending on energy-consuming air conditioners. Mechanically, NESCOD leverages the thermodynamic properties of endothermic dissolution to offer an eco-friendly alternative for communities that are…

Scientists have achieved a remarkable feat by enabling mouse eyes to perform part of the photosynthetic process using specially designed eye drops derived from spinach leaves. The experimental treatment, developed by researchers at the National University of Singapore, was created to combat dry eye disease, a condition that affects millions of people worldwide. Rather than…

Prey accessibility, not abundance, may shape predator behavior in penguins For nesting penguins in Antarctica, finding food is no longer just about how many fish or krill are in the ocean. It is also about how difficult those animals are to catch.Scientists who tracked more than 6,000 penguin dives beneath Antarctic sea ice found that…
