Climate change prevention: Fresh water in the Southern Ocean is stopping CO2 release
An AWI study suggests why the Southern Ocean is still absorbing CO2, defying climate models. Increased low-salinity surface water is creating a barrier, temporarily trapping carbon-rich water below and preserving the vital carbon sink.
NHS estate crisis deepens as maintenance backlog nears £16bn, new report warns
The NHS faces a record £16 billion maintenance backlog, according to new ERIC 2024/25 data.
Quark generation via gravitational capture of neutrinos in circular orbits around positrons or electrons
We consider the circular motion of a neutrino of rest mass mν rotating around an electron or positron due to their gravitational attraction, and we use Special Relativity (SR) to compute the gravitational (or inertial) mass γ3mν of the neutrino. The computed mass is found to be, surprisingly, in the Planck mass range (~1019 GeV/c2), and the corresponding gravitational force between any two of them reaches the Strong Force value (104-105 N) at fm distances.
The EU have released a new strategy to lead a clean and resilient transition
The European Union has launched a new strategy that will strengthen its leadership in the global clean energy transition while boosting industrial competitiveness and international partnerships.
Faster MRI scans could make early dementia diagnosis more accessible
Researchers at UCL have developed a method to reduce MRI scan times for dementia diagnosis by two-thirds, potentially doubling daily scan capacity and improving access to early care.

How smarter NHS investment could fix care, fuel growth, and house key workers
A new report from NHS Providers and PA Consulting shows that smarter capital investment could cut waiting times, drive growth, and deliver housing for NHS staff.
Climate-proofing public procurement: Mainstreaming tailored climate information into every stage of the process
Cities are central to both the causes and solutions of the climate crisis. Local governments, through their regulatory and spending powers, hold significant potential to advance climate neutrality. Integrating climate considerations into public procurement can transform it from a procedural necessity into a strategic instrument for mitigation, adaptation, and sustainable urban development.
UK faces growing cyber threats: NCSC urges urgent action in annual review
The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) has recently launched its ninth Annual Review, revealing that a growing threat landscape is outpacing the UK's cyber resilience.
