Pig kidneys frozen for a year brought back to life
Scientists at University of Minnesota successfully rewarmed pig kidneys cooled to -150 °C and stored in a glass-like state for a year, proving the organs can function again. 🧊🧬
This milestone could eventually help solve severe donor shortages by allowing long-term organ banking. #science ⚡ #health ⚡ #medicine

Solar panels over crops cool fields and workers
Computer modeling published in Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems shows that solar panels installed above farmland cool underlying crops by 1.84 degrees Celsius and cut water evaporation.
The setup also cools the solar panels themselves and lowers heat stress for farmworkers.
