Takeshi Yoro, anatomist: âIn Japan, we donât see a robot as a threat: itâs simply another form of presence in the worldâ
The 88-year-old Japanese physician swapped autopsies for popular science writing. In his best-seller, he argues that we have vast amounts of information but fail to understand one another because of an âinvisible wallâ made up of prejudice, bias, self-assurance, and the failure to listen

The Government Doesnât Just Want to Ban Ghost Guns. It Wants to Control Your 3D Printer
New laws are targeting not just 3D-printed weapons, but the digital files, platforms, and machines that create them, raising questions about innovation and who decides what can be made. As a longtime member of the 3D-printing community, defined by its openness, I'm concerned.

Soft-bodied origami robot moves without motors or gears
"Ancient Japanese Art Brings Spineless Robot To Life!" Sounds very much like a movie plot summary. In reality, it perfectly describes the work of Princeton University engineers who have created a robot that moves without a single motor or gear, using heat and the principles of origami instead.âŠ

Worldâs first lab-grown T-Rex leather handbag unveiled in Amsterdam could fetch âŹ575,000
In a major breakthrough for synthetic biology, researchers on Thursday unveiled a new form of lab-grown leather created from reconstructed Tyrannosaurus rex protein sequences. The material is the main component of a new, luxury handbag shown off in a debut at Amsterdam's Art Zoo Museum, which is expected to fetch hundreds of thousands of euros when it eventually hits the auction block.
