Really interesting possibilities: A glue which can unstick when placed in a magnetic field

Industry-strength adhesive means products can be dismantled and recycled, rather than thrown into landfill Researchers at the University of Sussex have developed a glue which can unstick when placed in a magnetic field, meaning products otherwise destined for landfill, could now be dismantled and recycled at the end of their life. Currently, items like mobile

Countries that relax regulations for regenerative medicines could be causing a downward spiral in international standards

Relaxing of regulations for regenerative medicines has cascading effect internationally, new research warns Researchers warn that if just one country decides to relax regulations in the field, a heightened sense of competition can spur others to do the same. It’s unclear whether this deregulation best serves competition, science or the patients. Regenerative medicine focuses on
