Happy International Day of Women and Girls in Science! Today, we celebrate the brilliant minds shaping our future. Let's honor the fearless women scientists who inspire us and empower girls everywhere to pursue their dreams! Here's to breaking barriers together! #WomenInScience #GirlsInSTEM #Scitke

Scientists at the University of Jyv?skyl?’s Accelerator Laboratory have precisely measured the atomic masses of radioactive lanthanum isotopes, uncovering an unexpected anomaly in their nuclear binding energies. This discovery sheds light on the formation of elements heavier than iron and raises questions about nuclear structure. #Bump #Mysterious #Nuclear #Scitke

A recent study reveals that postmortem brain samples collected last year contain significantly more microplastics than those analyzed nearly a decade ago, suggesting these synthetic particles accumulate in vital organs over time. #BuildUp #KidneysorLiver #Microplastics #Scitke

A new study published in PLOS ONE suggests that light therapy may significantly improve sleep quality, strengthen circadian rhythms, and reduce caregiver burden in Alzheimer’s patients. #Alzheimers #Light #Therapy #Scitke

By experimenting with nanoscale magnetic materials, researchers have uncovered an asymmetric diffraction pattern in surface acoustic waves (SAWs)—a phenomenon previously seen only in optics. This breakthrough reveals new ways to manipulate sound waves, potentially transforming classical and quantum communication. #Groundbreaking #magnetic #SoundWave #Scitke

A little-known element is offering new insights into the transatlantic slave trade. Researchers have created a map of strontium, a naturally occurring element, across sub-Saharan Africa. By comparing these strontium levels with those found in human remains, scientists can more accurately determine the geographic origins of individuals sold into slavery, as reported in Nature Communications on December 30. #AfricanStrontiumMap #OriginsofEnslavedIndividuals #Scitke

While it’s clear that prolonged sitting harms our health, how much exercise is needed to offset its effects? Studies indicate that 30-40 minutes of moderate to vigorous activity daily can help counterbalance the risks. #DayofSitting #Exercise #Scitke

A century ago, science embraced quantum principles. To commemorate this, physicists are hosting a year-long global celebration. In 1925, quantum mechanics began to take shape, offering a scientific theory that explains the counterintuitive behaviors of physics at microscopic scales. From that point onward, a series of groundbreaking papers established the theory’s foundation. #Physicists #QuantumMechanics #Scitke

A recent study reveals that consuming one to six eggs per week significantly lowers the risk of death from any cause, especially heart disease—even among individuals with high cholesterol. #EatingOneEggperWeek #HeartDisease #Scitke

Looking Glass, known for its unique screens that showcase 3D holograms without the need for a headset or glasses, has introduced iOS support. This update allows users to view Cinematic Mode videos, custom apps, and 3D content from their iPhone or iPad directly on the display, eliminating the need for a high-powered desktop for processing. #Holographic #Iphone #Scitke
