A team of scientists from Tokyo Metropolitan University created unprecedentedly lightweight optics for X-ray space telescopes by employing Micro Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) technology. By refining the patterning and annealing process, they achieved ultra-sharp features that rival existing telescopes in performance while significan...
A multi-center trial found that buccally absorbed cannabidiol reduced immediate post-operative pain following arthroscopic rotator cuff repair, with patients reporting lower pain scores and higher satisfaction rates compared to placebo. CBD was also safe, with no significant differences in nausea or liver function tests.
The University of Arizona's AZ HEROES study will continue to evaluate COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness and immunity among frontline workers, families, and children.
