Indoor farms are bringing the change! đ
Based in Appalachia, Kentucky, AppHarvetâs cutting edge indoor farms have delivered their first harvest of tomatoes to grocery stores.
Playing through the greenery and litter of a mini forestâs undergrowth for just one month may be enough to change a childâs immune system, according to a small new experiment.

If the company can pull it off, Starlink would be faster than many ground-based gigabit broadband networks.
These two Kenyan men are stealing hearts with their amazing inventions that can be a major way to provide much better technological aid to people with disabilities! Watch this video to see these mind-blowing gadgets that work on the commands given by the brain! And we havenât even told the best part, due to the lack of resources, most of these gadgets are made of wood or old computer parts! Well, imagine what all they can achieve if provided with better technology and resources!
It was invented by David Gathu and Moses Kinyua and is powered by brain signals.
The signals are converted into an electric current by a âNeuroNodeâ biopotential headset receiver. This electrical current is then driven into the robotâs circuitry, which gives the arm its mobility.
The arm has several component materials including recycled wood and moves vertically and horizontally.

Social behavior (SB) is a fundamental hallmark of human interaction. Repeated administration of low doses of the 5-HT2A agonist lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) in mice enhances SB by potentiating 5-HT2A and AMPA receptor neurotransmission in the mPFC via an increasing phosphorylation of the mTORC1, a protein involved in the modulation of SB. Moreover, the inactivation of mPFC glutamate neurotransmission impairs SB and nullifies the prosocial effects of LSD. Finally, LSD requires the integrity of mTORC1 in excitatory glutamatergic, but not in inhibitory neurons, to produce prosocial effects. This study unveils a mechanism contributing to the role of 5-HT2A agonism in the modulation of SB.

Building a corn cobâcell

Building a corn cobâcell by cell, gene by gene.
Corn hasnât always been the sweet, juicy delight that we know today. And, without adapting to a rapidly changing climate, it is at risk of losing its place as a food staple. Putting together a plant is a genetic puzzle, with hundreds of genes working together as it grows. Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) Professor David Jackson worked with Associate Professor Jesse Gillis to study genes involved in corn development. Their teams analyzed thousands of individual cells that make up the developing corn ear. They created the first anatomical map that shows where and when important genes turn on and off during key steps in development. This map is an important tool for growing better crops.
COVID-19 may have shocked the cityâs commercial market but that hasnât stopped developers from doing what they do best. In fact, a bevy of newly constructed and redeveloped towers are poised to hit the market in Manhattan.
Industry experts told The Post that it will be those new buildings, designed with cutting-edge tech and with future pandemics in mind, that will have the greatest advantage on the market.
âThere is no question the buildings provisioned for the 21st century-plus are going to be in a better position to cash in on the leasing opportunities ahead,â said David Goldstein, vice chairman of real estate services provider Savills. âIt could be an older building reimagined, or a new one under construction or in planning stages.â
