Can we hear the “beat” of gravitational waves in a pulsar?
Researchers at Hirosaki University have discovered that signals from pulsars suggest that extremely low-frequency gravitational waves are rippled through space. The signal observed by the international Pulsar Timing Array collaboration in 2023 could come from a stochastic background of gravitational waves or from a single string of nearby supermassive black holes. In order to distinguish […]
FSSAI proposes ban on PFAS in food packaging
The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has proposed a ban on the use of bisphenol A (BPA) and PFAS in food packaging. This regulatory change could bring about a major shift in India’s food packaging landscape and bring India in line with global health and environmental standards. The proposals were issued through […]

Hydrogen Valley at the innovation center of the North Adriatic Sea
Europe’s first cross-border Hydrogen Valley is transforming regional decarbonization through large-scale collaboration, industrial testbeds and a long-term ecosystem approach. Hydrogen has become a decisive element in Europe’s clean energy transition. One of the most ambitious examples is in the North Adriatic Hydrogen Valley (NAHV), developed in cooperation between Croatia, the Italian autonomous region of Friuli […]
New study identifies recurrence risk for multiple myeloma patients
A new study has identified a more accurate way to predict whether patients with multiple myeloma, a type of blood cancer, are likely to relapse early after treatment. A study conducted by a team of researchers at the Institute of Cancer Research in London found that combining two types of genetic testing significantly increases the […]

Global resistance to antibiotics has reached alarming levels
One in six infections worldwide is now resistant to antibiotics, highlighting a growing global health crisis, according to a new WHO report. Antibiotic resistance (when bacteria evolve to withstand treatments that once cured infections) is increasing at an unprecedented pace. The World Health Organization (WHO) has released its 2025 Global Antibiotic Resistance Surveillance Report, showing […]
Pioneer of organometallic structures wins Nobel Prize in Chemistry
These crystalline materials are transforming the way scientists store, separate, and use gases and molecules. The three winners, from Japan, Australia and the United States, respectively, created molecular structures with vast interior spaces that function like complex scaffolds. These organometallic frameworks can capture, store, or transform materials, opening new frontiers in energy, climate, and environmental […]
Seeds of sustainability in rural areas
From one woman’s courage to a common mission that brings science and community together through the CELISE project for sustainable rural development. During protests in Nairobi in the early 1980s, women with no political power or protection stood up against the men who were cutting down the last remaining forests in the city. All she […]
