Novel photocatalyst achieves 98% degradation efficiency of BPA under visible light
Photocatalysts can effectively utilize solar energy to degrade organic pollutants, presenting significant application potential in water treatment. However, the ultrafast recombination of photogenerated carriers has severely limited the performance o.....»»
I watched an AI collar make a dog talk, and it was unreal
We all talk to our pets, but if they wear this crazy AI-driven collar, they will now be able to talk back. We've seen it working, and it's as mad as it sounds......»»
Scientists discover chemical probes for previously "undruggable" cancer target
Hormone-driven cancers, like those of the breast and prostate, often rely on a tricky-to-target protein called Forkhead box protein 1 (FOXA1). FOXA1 mutations can enable these types of cancers to grow and proliferate. Today, FOXA1 is notoriously diff.....»»
