In controlled environments like vertical farms or greenhouses, using electricity to convert energy into light with LEDs is not the most efficient way because plants waste the majority of that energy. A professor of Chemical and Environmental Engineering has figured out a way to grow plants 🌱 in the dark. An electrolyzer turns #CO2 into acetate, and genetically engineered plants use that acetate to grow in the absence of light https://www.forbes.com/sites/dereknorman/2026/06/11/the-moonshot-to-grow-food-in-space/

Yesterday, we presented our poster from researchers of JLB of @tuberlin , #VTT and @ZBMED on

„ #Sustainability conflicts of so-called #AI Systems in #Biomedicine “

at the #Bioengineering Symposium in @MDC_Berlin .

Abstract and poster can be found here: 👉 https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.21158159

In the last part of the poster we pose the question
DO WE HARM THE #SOCIETY more than benefit it – BY USING AI?

💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: Engineers at #RiceUniversity built a flexible patch containing engineered human #cells sealed in gel capsules.

The cells release healing #proteins called #cytokines directly at the injury site for days. In #mice and #pigs, treated wounds closed faster than untreated ones. The patch hasn’t been tested on #humans yet, but the approach could eventually help chronic wounds that won’t heal on their own.

Liposomal nanoparticle reporters (LisNRs) are microscopic, engineered sensors developed to drastically amplify magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) signals. They encapsulate an MRI contrast agent within a protective sac featuring target-responsive water channels, allowing researchers to sensitively detect low-concentration molecules in the brain and body.
