Researchers have found a 3,775-year-old log buried under a farm in Canada, offering insight into a low-cost and scalable method to lock carbon out of the atmosphere for millennia. The study reveals that burying wood under the right conditions, such as in oxygen-deprived environments and clay soils, could prevent its decay and preserve its carbon co...

Researchers from the University of Colorado Boulder have identified hydrogen molecules as a key factor in lithium-ion battery degradation. This discovery could lead to the development of longer-lasting batteries, which would enhance the driving range of electric vehicles and improve renewable energy storage. By addressing issues like self-discharge...

BITS Pilani's Collaboration With IIT Bombay: The aim of the memorandum of understanding (MoU) is mainly for joint research projects, consultancy, student internships, faculty exchanges and the development of modern technologies.

Chief Technology Officer Mira Murati, VP Research Barret Zoph and Chief Research Officer Bob McGrew all announced their departures via X on Wednesday afternoon.

Three top technical leaders at Microsoft-backed OpenAI quit on Wednesday. Chief Technology Officer Mira Murati, VP Research Barret Zoph and Chief Research Officer Bob McGrew all announced their departures via X on Wednesday afternoon.

Scientists have uncovered evidence of past solar storms that were far more extreme than the well-known Carrington event of 1859, which disrupted telegraph systems across Europe and North America. By studying radiocarbon levels in tree rings, researchers like Fusa Miyake have identified ancient solar events, including a massive storm in AD774 that d...

This groundbreaking technology, expected to be operational by 2030, will be a significant step forward in AI development and scientific research.

Researchers at the Institute of Nano Science and Technology (INST), Mohali, have developed a new laser-based method to precisely control defects in MOF-based supercapacitors. This technique significantly enhances energy storage performance without altering the MOF’s crystal structure. By adjusting laser power, scientists increased the electrode's...

Japan has announced plans to start constructing the world's first "zeta-class" supercomputer in 2025. Expected to be 1,000 times faster than today's leading supercomputers, the project is set to cost more than $750 million and be operational by 2030. The supercomputer will help Japan stay competitive in artificial intelligence (AI) advancements and...

Scientists have created nanorobots that could revolutionise the treatment of brain aneurysms by delivering clot-forming drugs directly to the weakened vessel area, reducing the risk of stroke. These robots, smaller than blood cells, were successfully tested in rabbits. The nanobots are guided using magnetic fields and heat, which release the drug a...

Indian researchers at the Institute of Nano Science and Technology (INST) in Mohali, led by Dr. Bhanu Prakash, have developed a new technique to address chromium contamination in wastewater. This technique employs sunlight as a catalyst in combination with microfluidic technology to convert toxic hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) into the less harmful t...

The quantum internet promises advanced encryption methods that are impervious to future quantum decryption. Researchers aim to merge these technologies to enhance both security and functionality in telecommunications.

The Indian space agency known for its frugal innovations and cutting edge technology is also a very safe harbour for investment.

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is advancing its lunar exploration efforts with the upcoming Chandrayaan-4 and Chandrayaan-5 missions. ISRO Chairman S. Somanath confirmed that the designs for both missions are finalised and are awaiting government approval, as per a new report. These missions follow the successful Chandrayaan-3, which...

India-Japan Education Conference: The event will focus on student exchanges, scholarships, and research collaborations. It will also include cultural programs, workshops on innovation and technology, and networking opportunities.
