The recent test, announced by the European Southern Observatory (ESO) today, mark a significant milestone of the GRAVITY+ project, a complex upgrade to ESO’s Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI), unlocking greater observing power and much wider sky coverage.

Technology created by a startup supported by FAPESP accelerates patient recovery and improves biological integration.

Shamarah Tezeno has always been driven to serve.

 

She served her country, spending six years in the Army as an avionics mechanic working primarily on Black Hawk and Chinook helicopters. Now, she is pursuing a mission to serve her community as a social worker.

The Rice Advanced Materials Institute (RAMI) hosted a signature workshop centered on advanced microelectronics and photonics materials. 

The University of Pennsylvania today announced that Antonia M. Villarruel, PhD, RN, FAAN, the Margaret Bond Simon Dean of Nursing, will have her appointment extended for an additional two years, through June 30, 2028. The decision, announced by University President J. Larry Jameson, MD, PhD, and Provost John L.

The rising traffic density and heavier loads on the city’s vast network of bridges and highways have posed challenges to establishing an efficient and reliable inspection system for road safety. Researchers at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) have developed an innovative intelligent model with a multi-tier design to advance the inspection and evaluation process for surface and subsurface defect detection and safety for concrete bridges, contributing to a more sustainable public infrastructure.  

Antibiotic resistance is quietly spreading worldwide. According to the World Health Organization's (WHO) latest Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System (GLASS) report, one in six common bacterial infections worldwide could no longer be treated effectively with antibiotics in 2023, especially in areas with weaker health systems.

Targeted high-throughput sequencing technology can provide crucial support for infection prevention and guide precision treatment—helping to reduce antibiotic resistance that often arises from limited diagnostic capacity.
