Vielversprechende Innovation verzichtet auf Kältemittel:

"Der Ansatz kommt zu einer Zeit, in der Energieeffizienz und nachhaltige Kühlung immer wichtiger werden. Von Kühltruhen im Einzelhandel über Rechenzentren bis hin zur Medizintechnik wächst der Bedarf an neuen Lösungen. Gleichzeitig steht die Kühlbranche wegen ihres Energieverbrauchs und ihrer Klimawirkung zunehmend unter Druck."

Remote Town Planning to Erect 65-Foot Statue of Fluorescent Pink Slug

If the slug statue does come to fruition, it won’t be the first piece of art based on the slug. There’s another, smaller statue in the nearby town of Boggabri, about 36 miles southeast, according to Visit NSW.

And in 2023, 13-year-old Griffin Barber entered a piece inspired by the mollusk, Hug the Slug, into the Australian Conservation Foundation’s Wild at Art: Threatened Species Art Competition, winning first prize in the Most Unusual Artwork category.

“I have chosen this animal because it is big and cute,” he told the Narrabri Shire Council’s website at the time. “It is also a slug, and most people think ‘ew’ or ‘yuck’ when they think of slugs, but I thought that it was the perfect thing to make an artwork on.”

Zum ersten Mal nach der Zulassung einer auf der Genschere CRISPR basierenden Therapie ist laut Charité ein Patient in Deutschland erfolgreich damit behandelt worden. Die Entwicklerinnen der Methode, Emmanuelle Charpentier und Jennifer Doudna, hatten dafür 2020 den Nobelpreis erhalten. Der 19-jährige Patient Mohammad hat die genetisch bedingte Bluterkrankung Beta-Thalassämie und ist nach Angaben der Berliner Charité dank der Behandlung nicht mehr von Bluttransfusionen abhängig.

"When Democrats last had a competitive presidential primary, its large field of candidates was often bogged down in arguments about the details of one liberal policy or another. That eventually repelled key voters in battleground states when Trump won the 2024 election. A new Democratic effort called #Project270 is aimed at appealing to general election voters while candidates speak to early-state primary voters":
