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. ... >>

Sweet lovers are prone to alcoholism 17.07.2013

Studies have shown that there is a direct link between sugar cravings and addiction to alcoholism. In addition, researchers at the Indiana University School of Medicine have found, using functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), that alcoholism is associated with the orbitofrontal region of the brain, which is also responsible for the response to sweet tastes. An analysis of the functioning of this part of the brain can serve as a marker of an increased risk of alcohol dependence.

Previously, scientists have found that animals with an addiction to alcohol prefer to drink sweet water. But a new study has shown that there is an inverse relationship - animals that like sweets drink more alcohol.

Finding a link between sugar cravings and alcohol in humans requires additional factors to be taken into account, but some scientific research already shows that alcoholics or non-alcoholics with a history of alcoholism have a preference for sugary foods.

For the study, scientists chose 12 men and 4 women. All participants in the experiment were young (26 years old) and healthy. Each of them underwent a taste test - they checked their reaction to eating sweet food using MRI. In addition, the scientists learned about the alcohol addiction of the subjects - the amount of alcohol they drank, the frequency of drinking, etc. Thus, the researchers wanted to determine the area of ​​the brain that is responsible for the perception of sweets, and also tried to find out if this brain reaction is similar to the reaction when drinking alcohol.

The trend was that those who drank more alcohol (meaning the amount of alcohol they drank in one evening) had stronger responses to sugary water in the left orbitofrontal region of the brain. In addition, these same people in their subjective assessments noted sweet water as preferable.

Scientists believe that more research is needed on the relationship between sugar preference and alcohol addiction. It is known that addiction to alcohol is caused by several factors, but it is important to find a specific part of the brain that forms a kind of "encouraging" signal. What's more, people's sugar cravings, their brain response to sweets, can serve as a marker for identifying people at risk of developing alcoholism.
