Wi-fi on rays of light: 100 times faster, and never overloaded
(Eindhoven University of Technology) Slow wi-fi is a source of irritation that nearly everyone experiences. Researchers at Eindhoven University of Technology have come up with a surprising solution: a wireless network based on harmless infrared rays. The capacity is not only huge (more than 40Gbit/s per ray) but also there is no need to share since every device gets its own ray of light. -

Untreated sleep apnea in children can harm brain cells tied to cognition and mood
(University of Chicago Medical Center) A study comparing children 7 to 11 years old with moderate or severe obstructive sleep apnea to children the same age who slept normally found significant reductions of gray matter -- brain cells crucial to most cognitive tasks -- in several regions of the brains of children with sleep apnea. The finding points to connections between this common sleep disturbance and the loss of neurons or delayed neuronal growth in the developing brain. -
Transparent ceramics make super-hard windows
(Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron DESY) Scientists have synthesised the first transparent sample of a popular industrial ceramic at DESY. The result is a super-hard window made of cubic silicon nitride that can potentially be used under extreme conditions like in engines, as the Japanese-German team writes in the journal Scientific Reports. Cubic silicon nitride (c-Si3N4) forms under high pressure and is the second hardest transparent nanoceramic after diamond but can withstand substantially hig -
Tighten the grip on metastasis
(Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Oncológicas (CNIO)) Metastasis is the major cause of cancer-related death and its appearance remains a phenomenon that is difficult to predict and manage. We now know that, prior to the arrival of the cancer cells, tumors prepare the ground in the organ that they will later colonize. These areas with ideal conditions for the onset of metastasis are called pre-metastatic niches and targeting them will help improve patient survival. -
TGen study of ASU football team produces largest known dataset for concussion diagnostics
(The Translational Genomics Research Institute) Following a three-year study of the Arizona State University football program, researchers at the Translational Genomics Research Institute have created the largest dataset to date of extracellular small RNAs, which are potential biomarkers for diagnosing medical conditions, including concussions. Details of the dataset were published today in Scientific Reports, an online open-access journal of the Nature Publishing Group. -

In a complementary study, the researchers found that some minority groups are at considerably higher risk for sexual assault in college than peers in majority groups. -
Scientists make the case to restore Pluto's planet status
(Johns Hopkins University) Kirby Runyon wants to make one thing clear: regardless of what one prestigious scientific organization says to the contrary, Pluto is a planet. So, he says, is Europa, commonly known as a moon of Jupiter, and so is the Earth's moon, and so are more than 100 other celestial bodies in our solar system that are denied this status under the prevailing definition of 'planet.' -

For a modest personality trait, 'intellectual humility' packs a punch
