Scientists break through the wall of sleep to the untapped world of dreams
NSF-supported researchers achieve two-way communication with lucidly dreaming people, creating a new method for studying the human mind that might lead to innovative ways of learning and problem-solving. By Jason Stoughton Eight minus six … two”
It’s not exactly “one small step for man,” but that humble mathematical message is extraordinary in its own way. The first part “eight minus six” was transmitted by a scientist to a place just as exotic as the moon yet frequented by each of us. The response “two” came from the mind of a sleeping research subject as he snoozed in a neuroscience laboratory outside Chicago.
NSF s mission is to advance the progress of science, a mission accomplished by funding proposals for research and education made by scientists, engineers, and educators from across the country.

Emission-Free Renewable Power Generation can Improve China’s Air Quality
Written by AZoCleantechFeb 17 2021
Poor air quality accounts for premature death in around 1.2 million Chinese citizens every year. And public health outcomes are especially ominous during adverse air quality events, like the infamous episodes of the Airpocalypse winter haze.

Now, a research team from Northwestern University speculated whether the extensive implementation of electric vehicles (EVs) could assist China to prevent these fatal events. The solution depends on several factors.
The investigators concluded in a recent study that air quality and the benefits of EVs toward public health as well the potential of these EVs to decrease carbon emissions in China depend on the composition of the electric grid and the type of transport electrified.
