Brown University team joins NASA mission to study giant planets from Antarctica

The EXCITE infrared telescope will travel aboard a high-altitude balloon to around 130,000 feet above Earth, allowing researchers to study the atmospheres of exoplanets known as hot Jupiters.

Earth’s life story may not have begun with comets, new study finds

A new study by the University of Cambridge has found that comets were unlikely to deliver enough hydrogen cyanide to early Earth to help life begin. The findings challenge a long-standing theory, though researchers say a rare successful impact remains possible.

MIT develops implantable ultrasound device to improve drug delivery to the brain

The research prototype combines a drug-delivery tube with 24 miniature ultrasound transducers to help substances spread farther through brain tissue. Tested in laboratory tissue models and mice, the technology could eventually support targeted treatment for aggressive brain tumours, but it has not been proven in patients.

NTU researchers develop light-activated compounds for safer 3D printing

The new photoinitiators can cure liquid resins under light, with laboratory tests showing low toxicity to human cells and reduced material shrinkage. Their performance in large-scale manufacturing remains to be established.

Water vapour slows grain growth in zirconia ceramics, study finds

Experiments suggest that steam can slow microstructural changes in a ceramic used in high-temperature protective coatings, potentially helping the material retain porosity and thermal insulation properties.

IUCN launches global strategy to strengthen invasive species research and monitoring

The 10-year strategy sets four objectives through 2036, including improving scientific data, research tools and early-detection systems to tackle invasive alien species. Its impact will depend on implementation, national capacity and sustained funding.
