Why This Regeneron Eye Rival Just Catapulted More Than 170% - Investor's Business Daily

Finnegan Sommer and Olutayo Oyewusi are the creators of TheraBee. Today, October 10, is World Mental Health Day, and with it, an opportunity to shed light on the quiet struggles and private resilience of the millions globally affected by mental health challenges. This year’s theme,  “Lived Experiences Heard: Real Voices, Real Change” Emphasizes the importance of listening to those experiences. In that spirit of empathy and action, we highlight five projects by recent Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF) finalists using STEM to explore questions across the spectrum of mental health research.

The spacecraft delivered materials and equipment for new research studies to the station.

Mud from a fjord shows an Atlantic air pattern brought wetter, colder spells to southern Greenland, a clue to how its ice may fare. Greenland’s ice is shrinking as the planet warms. But in the island’s southwest, rainfall and snowfall have been influenced by the same North Atlantic air-pressure pattern for at least 5,000 years. When that pattern tipped one way, the region turned wetter and colder. The record comes from mud on the floor of a Greenland fjord, and it suggests snowfall, not only temperature, shaped how the area’s ice grew and shrank. It doesn’t yet show how glaciers there will respond to the warming ahead. Johan Faust, a researcher at MARUM, the Center for Marine Environmental Sciences at the University of Bremen in Germany, led the work with colleagues in Germany, Norway, Denmark and Canada. A seesaw in the airThe pattern is called the North Atlantic Oscillation. It’s the difference in air pressure between a low that sits near Iceland and a high near the Azores, and it’s strongest in winter. When that difference is large, the pattern is in its positive phase. Northwestern Europe and southwestern Greenland both get more rain and snow.

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory researcher Isaiah Santistevan led the development of three-dimensional simulations exploring how a nuclear device could deflect or disrupt an asteroid threatening Earth.
