Concept of angular ptychographic imaging with closed-form method (APIC) and comparison between the reconstruction process of APIC and Fourier ptychographic microscopy (FPM). Credit: Nature communication (2024). DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-49126-y For hundreds of years, the brightness and magnification of microscopes were ultimately limited by the physical properties of their optical lenses. Microscope makers pushed those limits by … Read more

Space detection of terrestrial anomalies: groundbreaking new technique reveals early signs of earthquakes

by
SciTechDaily

A new study highlights the potential of satellites in detecting early indicators of earthquakes through anomalies in the ground, atmosphere and ionosphere, suggesting the possibility of predicting earthquakes earlier than previously thought. Professor Mehdi Akhoondzadeh’s research, which analyzed satellite data from recent earthquakes near the Turkey-Syria border, identified significant anomalies in the precursors that occurred … Read more

Amazing new technique shows changes in Alzheimer’s brain at every level at once

by

Researchers will no longer have to choose between studying a single human brain as a patchwork of fragmented images or a distant, pixelated representation of large structures. A new imaging platform developed by a US team instead seamlessly combines the finer details of brain cells, their connections and contents, with brain-wide maps of entire networks … Read more

Nordic walking uses many more muscle groups than regular walking, so it's good for you

I recently celebrated my 67th birthday, which gave me the usual pause for thought. I like to think I’m aging well, but there’s plenty of room for improvement. But change is hard and at my age it can be quite intimidating. That’s one of the main reasons I enjoy creating (and testing) ideas featured in … Read more

How peptide amyloids could have paved the way for life on Earth – Interesting technique

by

Life on Earth emerged about 3.7 billion years ago. Despite this being a crucial milestone in the history of our planet, the precise molecular mechanisms behind its formation remain largely unknown. Scientists have proposed many theories to explain the origin of life. Two stand out: the primordial soup theory and the RNA world hypothesis. Both … Read more
