As AI drives a boom in data centers, a researcher at Binghamton University, State University of New York has developed new tech that could make them more energy efficient. A $100,000 NSF-supported grant will help move this invention from the lab to the commercial market.

Row crop producers will learn the latest weed control solutions at the 34th Milan No-Till Field Day, scheduled for July 23 from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Illinois Grainger engineers’ new model sheds light on magnetic-multipole dynamics in antiferromagnets.

According to the World Health Organisation, cardiovascular diseases claim almost 20 million lives every year and remain the leading cause of death worldwide. Although they are most often associated with heart attacks or strokes, serious complications do not always begin suddenly – sometimes their onset is far less noticeable.

For doctors, this raises a difficult question: how can they record something that is not happening during an examination? A standard electrocardiogram (ECG) shows the heart’s activity only at a specific moment, while even longer-term monitoring does not always coincide with less frequent episodes of heart rhythm disorders. As a result, some arrhythmias, particularly short episodes of atrial fibrillation, may go unnoticed until they cause more serious health problems.

University of Pittsburgh researchers, led by Alejandro Almarza, developed a new way to visualize nerves inside joint tissue in full 3D without slicing it apart. By combining light sheet microscopy with a new tissue-clearing technique called c-Clear, the team mapped nerve architecture in rat knee joints, work that could help explain temporomandibular disorders (TMDs), a group of conditions causing jaw pain and dysfunction that affect millions. The resulting 16-terabyte dataset is now publicly available on the NIH's SPARC Portal, offering a foundation for future research into how nerve patterns relate to joint pain.

Hookah is often seen as a cleaner alternative to smoking cigarettes, but researchers at The University of Texas at Arlington are launching a new study to put that assumption to the test.
