IIT Roorkee unveils Comprehensive Study on Advanced Grid-Scale Energy Storage Technologies with MNRE

In a world where almost, everything is dependent on energy sector, role of energy storage and the way it is impacting ancillary services, imports, tariff structures and indigenous capabilities for an emerging and large economy like India, has been always immense but lacked a comprehensive understanding backed by research.  That gap has been filled up now thanks to a study …

Why all languages have words for ‘this’ and ‘that’?

Languages around the world have words for ‘this’ and ‘that’ according to new research from an international team, led by the University of East Anglia.   Researchers studied more than 1,000 speakers of 29 different languages to see how they use demonstratives – words that show where something is in relation to a person talking such as ‘this cat’ or …

MIT-WPU Researchers discover a new damselfly species in Southwestern Ghats of Kerala

In a remarkable discovery that sheds light on the critical state of our planet’s ecosystems, MIT-WPU researchers have unearthed  a new damselfly species, the ‘Armageddon Reedtail –Protosticta Armageddonia.‘ This new species, with its ominous moniker, serves as a stark reminder of the ecological crisis our world faces due to rampant habitat loss and climate change.

Change food choices to reduce GHG emissions: new study

Publishing their findings on June 15 in Nature Food, an international group of scientists led by the Universities of Groningen and Birmingham, say that the growth of the global population and rising demand for emission-intensive food are likely to boost emissions further. “A global shift in diets, including reducing excessive intake of red meat and improving shares of plant-based protein – …

You may soon be able to monitor pollution using mobile phones as IIT Madras researchers devise a framework

Using data science and IoT,  Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IIT Madras) Researchers have developed a low-cost mobile air pollution monitoring framework in which, pollution sensors mounted on public vehicles can dynamically monitor the air quality of an extended area at high spatial and temporal resolution. The devices are capable of measuring multiple parameters, ranging from PM1, PM2.5, PM10 and gasses …

UKRI and ERC fund University of Dundee’s Gene “Video Editing” for cancer and neurodegenerative disease drug discovery research

The researchers at the University of Dundee have received funding of £4.4 million to explore how our genes can be ‘video-edited’ to develop new drugs for cancer, neurodegeneration, and other diseases. Genes are the pieces of DNA that contain the information required to make different types of proteins that build and maintain living organisms. Alternative splicing enables the production of …
