A small trial suggests time-restricted eating may help adults with Type 1 diabetes lower blood sugar without increasing major safety risks. For adults with Type 1 diabetes, limiting food intake to a set eight-hour period each day may offer another way to manage blood sugar without counting calories. A UIC study led by kinesiology and […]
This Tiny Wearable Patch Could Automatically Reverse a Fentanyl Overdose
A wearable patch that can detect fentanyl and automatically release naloxone may offer a new way to prevent unwitnessed opioid overdose deaths. A device smaller than a penny is designed to recognize dangerous fentanyl exposure and release an overdose reversal medication automatically, potentially providing help even when no one else is present. Researchers in Virginia […]
NASA’s Roman Telescope Is Almost Ready to Leave Earth
NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope has reached one of the final major milestones before launch. On August 21, teams sealed the observatory inside the protective fairing of the SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket at the Payload Hazardous Servicing Facility at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The fairing is the large protective shell that surrounds […]

Tiny Hidden Vibrations Could Make Aircraft More Fuel Efficient
New phononic subsurface designs could help control aircraft turbulence more broadly and predictably without reshaping the vehicle. At cruising speed, a passenger jet can travel around 640 mph while its wings push through turbulent air along their surfaces. That boundary layer turbulence can increase drag, making flight less efficient and requiring more fuel. Mahmoud I. […]
