Human body can help power 6G devices in the future, study shows
Posted by Gemechu Taye in categories: biotech/medical, internet
Not as a charger but as an antenna.
A team of researchers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst has found that the human body could be a useful tool to harvest waste energy and use it to power devices in the future, including those used for 6G, the next generation of wireless communication, a university press release said.
The world has just begun to experience the wonders of 5G wireless communication that has been rolled out in many countries across the world. The next generation, though, referred to as 6G, promises up to 1,000 times faster, even faster data rate and a tenth of the latency seen with 5G.

Scientists discover new anatomic structure in the brain that monitors and shields cells
Posted by Gemechu Taye in categories: biotech/medical, neuroscience
Though the team largely explains the function of SLYM in mice, they do study its presence in the adult human brain as well.
The human brain is tremendously complex, and scientists are yet to unlock its full potential. Now, a discovery has identified a previously unknown component of brain anatomy that doubles up as a protective barrier for our grey matter and a platform from which immune cells can monitor the brain, according to a release.
