Even though ADHD doesn’t only affect children, they are the most vulnerable among us. Knowing the symptoms well and intercepting the disease at its early stages leads to a much joyful life. With the intention of allowing children to live up to par with their peers, more thorough research on the illness is often required.
“Please put on your 3D glasses” A phrase, buried deep inside our minds. This statement accompanies every 3D screening and essentially, prompts us to wear the glasses in order to not spend the next few hours in a blurry, visual mess. Imagine that all you ever needed to grab was a popcorn bucket and a large soda, no spectacles that don’t sit on the nose properly.

There is definitely more to the ancestry between primates and humans than simple evolution curve. We may share very similar body structure, behavioral traits or even resemblance, but a recent study led by the University of Nebraska-Lincoln presents evidence that chimpanzee-carried simian immunodeficiency viruses (SIVs), considered by the virologists to be ancestors of HIV, can infect human cells.
Humans are extraordinary species. Since the dawn of our existence, we continue to explore the world, trying to understand every single motion, scent, color, behavior. Curiosity is the engine that drives us forward. We are the cartographers, fueled by eagerness, mapping everything that we encounter and giving reason as to why phenomenons happen the way they do. By understanding the world, we strive to understand ourselves.
In 1959, physicist Richard Feynman challenged his colleagues to engineer the world at the smallest possible scale. He speculated that if we had a platform allowing us to arrange individual atoms in an exact orderly pattern, it would be possible to store one piece of information per atom.
Autonomous and semi-autonomous cars are rapidly entering the mainstream, but safety concerns make many people reluctant to adopt. CMU researchers have done the math, and the results are making a strong point in the favor of partially automated vehicle technologies, arguing to save money and lives.
We have been inspired by nature for centuries in a thousand different ways, but one area that benefits from looking at nature more than most others is engineering and structural design. Form-finding – a more structured approach to bio-inspired construction – is now breeding the new generation of indestructible bridges.

Ants, it turns out, are extremely good at estimating the concentration of other ants in their vicinity. This ability appears to play a role in several communal activities, particularly in the voting procedure whereby an ant colony selects a new nest.
