Scientists have uncovered a powerful genetic switch that helps some of the body’s most important immune cells grow up properly and keep our organs healthy. The switch, called MafB, guides immature precursor cells as they develop into macrophages, the body’s clean-up and repair crew that removes pathogens, clears debris, recycles iron, and supports tissue function. When MafB is missing, these cells remain stuck in an underdeveloped state and cannot fully carry out their protective roles.

Simulated lunar dirt can be turned into extremely durable structures, potentially paving the way to more sustainable and cost-effective space missions, a new study suggests. Using a special laser 3D printing method, researchers melted fake lunar soil—a synthetic version of the fine dusty material on the moon surface, called regolith simulant—into layers and fused it with a base surface to manufacture small, heat-resistant objects.

Inverted perovskite solar cells offer strong potential for scalable, low-cost solar power, but a hidden interface inside the device has limited their performance and durability. Researchers have now introduced crystal-solvate nanoseeds that guide crystal growth and release solvent in a controlled way during heating, improving film quality at this buried layer. The result is smoother, denser material with better electronic properties and stability. A large mini-module achieved 23.15% efficiency with minimal scaling losses.

José Mourinho delivered a press conference today at Benfica’s training ground, addressing a range of controversies that have swirled around the club this week. At the heart of the session were his words about Gianluca Prestianni. Mourinho made it clear that Benfica’s standards — and his own — are non-negotiable. “If it is proven that […]
