Forget carrots! Scientists develop an ultra-thin crystal film that could allow humans to see in the DARK – and could revolutionise night vision Ultra-thin crystal film developed by scientists that can be applied to spectacles Design acts as a filter to help humans see in the dark by converting infrared light It contains nanometre-scale crystals … Read more
Researchers found that poor attention span in eight year olds could lead to depression at 18, and memory problems at ten could lead to hypomania when they are 22 years old.
Scientists have developed a robotic 3D-printed ‘third thumb’ that’s controlled using pressure sensors on the underside of the big toes. The thumb, created by a researcher at University College London (UCL), is worn on the side of the hand opposite the actual thumb, near the little finger. In trials, researchers found the human brain can adapt to … Read more

Scientists in the US claim to have developed the ‘holy grail’ of electric vehicle (EV) batteries using a design inspired by a BLT sandwich. The battery, developed by Harvard experts, is lithium metal, rather than lithium ion found in EVs that are already on the market. The BLT-inspired design overcomes the issue of dendrites – tiny, … Read more
