Researchers develop new technique to explore oceanic microbes
As a young boy, Southern Methodist University (SMU) researcher Alexander Chase was captivated by the incredible variety of plants in Earth’s tropical rainforests. This early fascination led him to ponder the potential existence of undiscovered species. Driven by this curiosity, Chase now utilizes a cutting-edge method called Small Molecule In situ Resin Capture (SMIRC) to
Why iPhone 16 could be Apple’s biggest leap since Siri
When Apple integrated the Siri digital assistant into its iPhone 4s 13 years ago, it was hailed as a new era for smartphones. Of course, it was a funny novelty as much as it was a genuine help in those early days, but Siri did end up popularising speech as a way to control your
