The system combines quantum dots and an OLED display, translating infrared light into a range of visible colors. The post Monochrome No More: New Night-Vision Glasses Show Color appeared first on SingularityHub.

UCLA researchers have created a blood test that can scan DNA signals for multiple cancers, liver diseases, and signs of organ damage-and even indicate where trouble may be developing. Early results suggest the inexpensiv...

Researchers can now recover DNA from centuries-old parchment without damaging the manuscripts, turning historic documents into unexpected genetic time capsules. The hidden clues could reveal ancient trade routes, livesto...

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved an mRNA-based vaccine for influenza. Live Science asked experts what that means for the future of mRNA vaccines in the U.S.

A tomb excavated in Aspendos, Turkey, revealed a skeleton buried with several coins featuring ancient wrestlers.

A new study study shows specialized astrocytes repair brain damage by sending cell nuclei through long cellular extensions to rebuild glial networks.

A new study compares human eye-tracking to 400+ LLMs, revealing where AI fails to explain human rereading and text integration.

Keeping pets seems to be fairly recent behaviour in the timeline of human evolution. Columnist Michael Marshall turns to the latest research on primates to understand how long weve had the impulse to adopt furry friends

Every electronic and optoelectronic device generates heat, and today that heat is managed almost entirely from the outside. Heatsinks, fans, cold plates and refrigerators are bulky exterior measures bolted onto a chip or...

In January 2024, physicists at TU Dortmund University demonstrated a continuous time crystal in a semiconductor whose oscillations remained stable for hours. In a new study published in Nature Communications, Professor A...

This ultra-light solar filter film is one of the most versatile and best-quality ways to image the sun.

Since the 2000s, our light exposure has changed drastically as we make our buildings more energy-efficient. Now, were discovering how this may mess with our mitochondria, contributing to diabetes, dementia and more

Over the last decade, researchers have developed two-dimensional materials with fascinating quantum effects that could be harnessed for next-generation technologies.

A salt-loving microorganism found in places like the Dead Sea can not just survive but actively grow in conditions close to those that may be found just under the Martian surface

Skyrmions-essentially magnetic vortices-represent a promising approach in spintronics; in the future, they could serve as components in storage media or computers, potentially complementing established CMOS technologies....
