science Scientists have created unique two-phase droplets that can be controlled like tiny vehicles. Rakesh Narani, working at National Tsing Hua University, engineered these Janus droplets using hydrocarbon and fluorinated liquids. Magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles were placed at the boundary to create visible dividing lines between the two halves. By manipulating an external magnetic field, Narani can actively steer and drive these microscopic droplets. This technology shows potential for future uses in sensing, catalysis, and drug delivery applications.

health Quitting tobacco is considered the 'fourth pillar' of cancer care, alongside surgery, radiation, and chemo. This vital intervention is often missed by patients across various cancer types in places like the University of Wisconsin-Madison. A 2025 analysis showed those who quit had significantly lower mortality risks compared to smokers. The gap exists due to implementation issues like lack of staff training and funding, not lack of evidence. New standards now require screening and referral within 30 days for newly diagnosed patients. 🚭
