It has been discovered that the component which gives to the African Peach its painkiller properties, is a natural molecule identical at 100 % to a well-known synthetic molecule. This will treat local people and help discovering new active components.
It is possible to make veins and arteries of small diameter based on seaweed polymers whose properties are ideally suited to treat patients with cardiovascular diseases.
Insects or butterflies can fly by optimizing the use of energy. By adapting the shape and the flapping of their wings on wind turbines, we can recover energy from the wind even in urban areas.
Inspired by the photosynthesis performed by plants, researchers have developed a new catalyst for producing hydrogen from water. This is the promise of an entirely new energy, clean and sustainable.
