For the first time, research led by scientists at the University of São Paulo quantifies the impact of forest loss and global climate change on the biome. 

Using the same technology that AI uses to generate images, Penn researchers created thousands of antibiotic candidates, with two proving as effective in animal models as FDA-approved drugs.

SAN ANTONIO — September 2, 2025 — Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) has expanded the scope of a ballistic-resistance testing technique, the Laser-Induced Particle Impact Test (LIPIT), previously only applicable for impact testing of very small projectiles. By improving this technique, SwRI has dramatically increased the precision and efficiency of material ballistic resistance testing at scales not possible before.

This groundbreaking, multi-institutional research project is aimed at revolutionizing the future of precision agriculture through the development of an advanced edge/fog computing-based framework.

Wind and solar energy are central to China’s pursuit of carbon neutrality and energy transition. From a system-wide perspective, this study examines the future development of wind power, photovoltaic (PV), and concentrated solar power (CSP), covering forecasting methodologies, power system flexibility, energy storage integration, and cross-sector coupling. By 2060, the combined installed capacity of wind and solar is projected to reach 5,496–7,662 GW, accounting for more than 83% of the nation’s total capacity. Despite progress in technological maturity and cost reduction, challenges remain in terms of limited generation efficiency, high storage costs, insufficient grid flexibility, and policy coordination. This paper further proposes a sustainable development roadmap centered on wind–solar synergies.
