To enable the development of wearable devices that possess advanced ultraviolet (UV) detection functions, scientists from
Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) have created a new type of light sensor that is both flexible and highly sensitive.
While invisible to the human eye, UV rays surround us in our environment, and excessive exposure can cause health issues including skin cancer and premature skin ageing. The intensity of UV rays is typically reported through an index during weather reports. A wearable device, such as a T-shirt or watch that monitors the actual personal UV exposure throughout the day, would be a useful and more accurate guide for people seeking to avoid sun damage.

The Raw Truth About Red Meat
Unappetising research suggests eating red meat could shorten your life. We cut through the statistical gristle to uncover the facts about our favourite muscle fuel
By Matt Thomas Lisovskaya
There’s some bad news for your steak: it might not be that good for you. That’s according to a study of 1.5 million people by the Mayo Clinic in Arizona that found avoiding red meat for 17 years can extend your life by another four years.
And those findings aren t a one off. A Harvard Medical School study of 120,000 people over a 28-year period found eating one extra hunk of unprocessed red meat every day, roughly the size of a deck of cards, is associated with a 13% higher risk of “total mortality”. An additional daily serving of the processed sort – a sausage, or two slices of bacon, say – was responsible for a 20% increase. It seemed red meat’s number at the butchers of health was up.
