Science X Newsletter Mon, Jan 29

Dear manoj dole, Here is your customized Science X Newsletter for January 29, 2024: Technology news A strategy to realize vertical iontronic energy storage via osmotic effects and electrode redox reactions In recent years, engineers have been trying to identify new technologies to sustainably generate and store energy. One promising solution leverages the energy produced by osmosis when two fluids with a different salt concentration meet, such as when a freshwater body (e.g., a river) flows into a saltwater body (e.g., the sea). Speaking in a local accent might make social robots seem more trustworthy and competent, say scientists Social robots can help us with many things: teaching, learning, caring. Because they're designed to interact with humans, they're designed to make us comfortable—and that includes the way they talk. But ...
