Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

The brain of left-handed people is already different in the womb 09.09.2019

An Oxford University study found that left-handed people show differences as early as in utero. In particular, their brains develop differently.

Scientists have identified 4 genetic regions that can cause left-handedness, that is, make the left hand the main one for a person, and not the right, as is common in the vast majority. It turned out that these regions of the genes may also explain why left-handed people have more developed language skills. However, the study of left-handedness did not reveal the very genes that are responsible for this phenomenon, but scientists were able to narrow the search in the human genome to certain areas. In particular, they found that left-handedness may be a by-product of brain development in the womb.

In addition, microtubules, protein intracellular structures that are part of the cytoskeleton of cells or an internal structure that accounts for the bulk of a human cell, may be related to its formation. Scientists from Oxford University have confirmed that in left-handed people, the language areas of the right and left hemispheres of the brain communicate with each other more coordinated than in right-handed people.

And this suggests that left-handed people have a certain advantage when it comes to performing certain verbal tasks. But it must be remembered that these differences are observed only among a sufficiently large number of people, and not all left-handed people are exactly the same. According to statistics, 10% of the inhabitants of our planet use the left hand as the main one, while genes are responsible for approximately 25% of such cases.
