The Greek physician Galen of Pergamon (ca. AD 129 – 200/216) is arguably the most accomplished of all medical researchers of antiquity. The sixth century Syriac translation of his famous work On Simple Drugs was later erased and obscured when the parchment was reused for monastic writings. We have used…

According to Dana Pousty, safe water can be accessible anywhere around the globe by using the sustainable UV-LED lab patented device which uses multispectral wavelengths to achieve maximum disinfection with minimum costs and energy consumption.

Creating a fibrous and conductive cathode from a mix of copper, phosphorus, and sulfur served as a catalyst, dramatically speeding up oxygen’s reaction with water. This insight produced batteries that could be charged and discharged quickly and had high capacity, 460 watt-hours per kilogram (compared with about 75 Wh/kg for…

Christoph Lotz argues that the development of innovative systems for additive manufacturing techniques combined with in situ resource utilization are a promising solution for permanently going to the Moon, Mars, and beyond.

Irene Tagliaro is addressing the environmental and health concerns associated with perfluorinated substances (PFAS), or forever chemicals, by developing a PFAS-free water-repellent coating. This alternative solution utilises biopolymeric materials, specifically chitosan derived from aquaculture wastes, and fatty acids, offering a non-toxic, biodegradable, and sustainable substitute for PFAS in various applications.
