What does a person need to be happy?

Surveys conducted in 15 countries around the world - from the richest to the poorest - showed that people, no matter where they live, need very simple conditions to be happy.

Professor of psychology from the University of Edinburgh (Great Britain) Michael Bauer developed a questionnaire commissioned by the World Health Organization, in which it was necessary to mark with points from 1 to 10 those moments that are important for life satisfaction (one - the least important, ten - the most important).

It turned out that the first 4 places in the resulting list are occupied by the ability to do without outside help every day, good eyesight and hearing, the presence of energy for life and the ability to move. Financial security was in the second half of the list. Two factors occupied the last places - external beauty and satisfaction with sexual life.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

A unique atlas of the human genome is being created 27.04.2018

A group of scientists from Israel intend to create a one-of-a-kind atlas of the human genome using stem cells. Experts assure that the more complete the picture is, the greater the chances of successfully treating people from dangerous diseases.

The Human Genome Atlas, using modern gene editing technology and human embryonic stem cells, which explains the roles that genes play in health and disease, was created by scientists at the Hebrew University. Now, the new study provides a unique tool to map the function of all human genes using human embryonic stem cells.

The researchers analyzed virtually every gene in the human genome, creating over 180 different mutations. A new atlas of the human genome will help doctors quickly find genes that can trigger the development of cancer.
