Getting enough sleep isn’t just good for the body, it boosts life satisfaction in teens too. https://www.scientia.global/dr-eun-jin-jung-getting-sufficient-sleep-improves-the-life-satisfaction-of-adolescents/

Insufficient sleep can cause much more than tiredness and grouchiness in adolescents. As well as being important for their health, adolescents also need to get enough sleep to feel satisfied with their lives, according to a study by Dr Eun Jin Jung, from the Centre for Regional and Industrial HRD Re...

Two Turkish cities played a key role in shaping science and religion. A fascinating look at history, culture, and knowledge evolving together. https://www.scientia.global/professor-richard-luduena-two-turkish-cities-were-essential-in-the-development-of-science-and-religion-a-work-in-progress/

This book explores the history of the area in Turkey where these two cities lie. Prof Richard Ludueña and his daughter visited Harran and Sanliurfa (formerly Edessa) in 2014. He found them fascinating and wanted to learn more about their histories, but found no book that focused on their history fr...

Breakthrough work from Dr Marie-Lou Gaucher as her team develops a vaccine to tackle Necrotic Enteritis, a major disease in poultry. A step toward healthier flocks and reduced antibiotic use. https://www.scientia.global/dr-marie-lou-gaucher-unravelling-necrotic-enteritis-in-poultry-the-quest-for-an-effective-vaccine/

Avian necrotic enteritis (NE) is one of the most significant intestinal diseases affecting poultry worldwide, particularly broiler chickens. It causes major economic losses due to reduced growth rates, poor feed efficiency, and high mortality. The disease is caused by the bacterium Clostridium perfr...

A breakthrough from Dr Yurii Geletii and Professor Craig Hill at Emory Univer-sity. They’ve developed new redox buffer catalysts that self-regulate while breaking down harmful thiols into safer compounds. Cleaner, greener chemistry. https://www.scientia.global/dr-yurii-v-geletii-professor-craig-l-hill-redox-buffers-self-regulating-catalysts-for-chemical-oxidation/

Chemical reactions often demand precise control over their operating conditions to proceed efficiently. While chemists routinely use pH buffers to stabilise acidity levels, far less attention has been directed towards stabilising the electrochemical potential of solutions during oxidation–reductio...

The Sun’s magnetic activity might be far more “skin-deep” than we thought. Recent evidence shows its magnetic fields may form close to the surface, not deep in the core. Learn how this could change space-weather forecasts. https://www.scientia.global/sara-f-martin-the-suns-magnetic-activity-may-be-more-superficial-than-we-thought/

Scientists have long debated where solar cycle magnetic fields come from—deep within its interior or closer to its surface. Compelling new evidence suggests these fields may originate much closer to the Sun’s visible surface than previously thought, with important implications for understanding ...

New research explores how light therapy could ease MELAS, a mitochon-drial disease that affects energy production in the body. https://www.scientia.global/dr-liisa-laakso-lighting-the-way-exploring-photobiomodulation-to-ease-melas/

MELAS is a rare and serious genetic condition that affects how the body’s cells produce energy, leading to extreme fatigue, muscle weakness, and a range of other symptoms. With no cure currently available, treatment focuses only on managing complications. A team of researchers led by Dr Liisa Laak...

AI alone isn’t enough when data is noisy. New work by Nick Martin shows how combining data + physics via Data Assimilation, gives more reliable water resources models and avoids misleading results from bad da-ta. https://www.scientia.global/nick-martin-data-assimilation-overcoming-ais-data-uncertainty-limitations-for-water-resources/

Water resources are essential for human life. Knowing how to manage water, both now and in the future, is necessary to continue using it as well as possible. Nick Martin and Jeremy White are examining limitations to artificial intelligence applications in water resources generated from noisy and est...

Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy offers life-saving potential, particularly against blood cancers, but severe side effects such as cytokine release syndrome (CRS) limit its safety. These toxicities are linked to uncontrolled CAR expression levels on the T-cell surface. Led by Professor...

Stories and spirituality can heal. The latest work shows how therapy grounded in meaning and faith helps people re-write painful pasts into hopeful futures.
https://www.scientia.global/dr-suzanne-coyle-weaving-spirituality-into-psychotherapy-how-stories-help-healing/

As the practice of psychotherapy increasingly embraces the spiritual dimensions of the human experience, therapists are investigating new ways to weave faith and meaning into healing. Dr Suzanne Coyle, a licensed pastoral counsellor and family therapist, explores the role of spirituality in psychoth...

Exploring innovative treatments for Alzheimer's disease, researchers are investigating mechanical and light-based therapies, such as transcranial ultrasound stimulation and photobiomodulation, to enhance brain function and slow symptom progression. https://www.scientia.global/new-approaches-to-treating-alzheimers-disease/ CMEMS - Center for Microelectromechanical Systems, UMinho Universidade do Minho Escola de Engenharia da Universidade do Minho Departamento de Engenharia Mecânica - Universidade do Minho ICVS

Alzheimer’s disease is a devastating condition that strips away people’s memory, thinking, and independence. By 2050, it is expected to affect over 100 million people around the world, making it a high priority for scientific and medical research. Researchers are now exploring the potential for ...

How does light energise the living nerve? Dr Bo Song uncovers a powerful link between photons and neural function. https://www.scientia.global/dr-bo-song-light-energy-and-the-living-nerve/

At University of Shanghai for Science and Technology, recent work by Professor Bo Song and colleagues suggests that light may play an unexpected role in the way our nerves use and transmit energy. Their research explores how mid-infrared photons, tiny packets of light released by chemical reactions....

How do we train AI to handle extreme events? Dr Kenric Nelson introduc-es a new approach to make artificial intelligence truly risk-aware. https://www.scientia.global/dr-kenric-nelson-modelling-the-extreme-a-new-technique-for-training-risk-aware-artificial-intelligence/

Category 5 hurricanes, financial crashes, and global pandemics are just a few examples of rare events whose high risks necessitate understanding and mitigation. Developments in artificial intelligence (AI) could go a long way towards improving our ability to model and mitigate the impacts of such ex...
