minutes Science and technology empower people to change the world. At Arduino, we work every day to make them simple and accessible to anyone regardless of gender, ethnicity, age, background, nationality, and sexuality. Unfortunately, not all contributions are given the same visibility, that’s why we are celebrating the International Day of Women and Girls in Science by highlighting six scientists who were not honored enough for their achievements. Giving these women the visibility they deserve, we hope to inspire our community to innovate in a more inclusive way and to create a better futu...

The majority of organisms able to produce their own light are beetles, specifically fireflies, glow-worm beetles, and their relatives. While the chemistry that gives some insects the almost magical ability to glow is now reasonably well-appreciated, much less is known about how these signals evolved. New research by a team of scientists led by the Nanjing Institute of Geology and Palaeontology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (NIGPAS) has provided new insight on the evolution of this capacity. Their research f...

New 3D-Printable Hydrogel Changes Shape, Color in Response to Light Written by AZoMJan 6 2021 Engineers from Rutgers University took cues from the color-changing skin of squids, octopuses and cuttlefish to develop a 3D-printed smart gel that alters its shape upon exposure to light, turns into an 'artificial muscle,' and may pave the way for new military camouflage, flexible displays and soft robotics. This octopus has color-changing cells, called chromatophores, in its skin, a phenomenon that inspired Rutgers engineers. Image Credit: NOAA Okeanos Explorer Program, Galapagos Rift Expedition...

Updated Jan. 3, 2021 11:34 pm ET HONG KONG—A logjam in the global shipping industry is testing the resilience of China’s exporters, who have driven the country’s economic recovery by churning out goods to meet surging global demand during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Chinese exporters have been paying sharply higher rates and struggling to find containers for their goods. Chen Yang, who runs a textile trading unit at a state-owned enterprise i...
