ADB approves $500m loan to develop state-of-the-art power plant in Bangladesh

The Asian Development Bank's (ADB) Board of Directors has approved a $500 million loan to develop a state-of-the-art 800 megawatt (MW) power plant in Khulna, Bangladesh, along with associated connections to natural gas and power transmission facilities.

Leader’s aide puts forward proposals to counter US breaches

A senior adviser to Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei has put forward a number of propositions to develop the country’s nuclear capabilities and counter US breaches of the Iran deal, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), weeks after President Donald Trump pulled his country out of the agreement.

Scientists develop fire-resistant, fire-detecting wallpaper

Chinese scientists have developed a fire-resistant wallpaper that not only can withstand flames, but also detect fires and trigger an alarm if a fire occurs.

Scientists develop a two-step approach to starve lung tumor cells

American scientists developed a two-prolonged therapy with a combination of drugs that are already available clinically to starve the tumor cells to death.

Researchers develop nanoparticle films for high-density data storage

As we generate more and more data, the need for high-density data storage that remains stable over time is becoming critical.

Researchers develop a new class of two-dimensional materials

A research team led by the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) scientists and engineers has developed a method to make new kinds of artificial ‘superlattices’ — materials comprised of alternating layers of ultra-thin ‘two-dimensional’ sheets, which are only one or a few atoms thick.

Researchers develop ultrathin, highly elastic skin display

A new ultrathin elastic display that fits snugly on the skin can show the moving waveform of an electrocardiogram recorded by a breathable, on-skin electrode sensor.

Researchers develop a remote-controlled cancer immunotherapy system

A team of researchers has developed an ultrasound-based system that can non-invasively and remotely control genetic processes in live immune T cells so that they recognize and kill cancer cells.

Scientists develop possible recipe for first life on Earth

Scientists at the Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) have come up with a plausible recipe for how life began on early Earth.

At age six, children develop a sense of justice

Young children will pay to watch a puppet being beaten, but only six-year-olds pay more to watch punishment inflicted on a puppet that personally offended them, according to scientists trying to figure out when our sense of fairness first develops.

Researchers develop test that can diagnose two cancer types

A blood test using infrared spectroscopy can be used to diagnose two types of cancer, lymphoma and melanoma, according to a study led by Georgia State University.

Researchers develop graphene nano 'tweezers' that can grab individual biomolecules

Researchers from the University of Minnesota College of Science and Engineering have found yet another remarkable use for the wonder material graphene — tiny electronic ‘tweezers’ that can grab biomolecules floating in water with incredible efficiency.

New avenue in quest to develop tuberculosis vaccine

A team of scientists led by the University of Southampton has taken an important step forward in research efforts that could one day lead to an effective vaccine against the world's deadliest infectious disease.

Doctors develop new DNA test for Down's syndrome

Doctors have developed a more accurate test for Down’s syndrome and two rarer genetic disorders that are so serious the children often die soon after birth.

Scientists develop transparent solar cell technology

Researchers at Michigan State University (MSU) have developed transparent solar cell technology that could be used to make power-generating windows.
