Stretching spider silk increases hydrogen bonding, improving mechanical strength | Research
Spiders stretch their silk when spinning their webs. Researchers knew that this was important to strengthen the silk fibres but only now has it been discovered why. A new study reveals, through computational methods, that when silk fibres are…

Wearable Sensor Detects Plant Stress Before It’s Visible
Plants send distress signals when under attack from pests, drought, or disease, but these signals are often invisible to the naked eye. Now, scientists have developed a tiny, wearable sensor that attaches to plant leaves and detects stress before…
