General #SB623 update. First or FYI, company, partnerships, and SB623 R & D status @ sanbio.com. #TBI phase 2b achieved primary endpoint, while #ChronicIschemicStroke phase 2b did not meet primary endpoint. Even so, no safety issues thus far <sanbio.com/wp/wp-content/upl…>
Maybe near future use of #SpectrometerOnAChip that is scalable & affordable for #crowdsource & #citizenscience? Check out “Thermal light emitters based on #graphene directly grown on chips by etching-precipitation method:” sciencedirect.com/science/ar…. HT @Keio_Univ CC @SonySemicon_JP
Chainsaw effects mixed with certain industry push back in Washington DC <eg apple.news/A-zvxdX6JQSS2gKlG…,> I recommend @HorizonEU reach out to impacted civic #publicprivatepartnerships <eg #sensors R&D for #crowdsource & #citizenscience; materials R&D to remove #PFAS, #microplastics >

“It’s like a whole new world is open.”
Co-ops offering broadband are realizing advantages in electric operations through system upgrades and improved communications that minimize outages, hold down costs and boost member support. Read more: bit.ly/3GzKg4W
Given #hyperlocalenergyinfastructure push back in certain parts of USA (eg. IBIS Power PowerNest.) Maybe those push back sources might like framework via Rep Ward’s HB340: pv-magazine-usa.com/2025/03/… (eg. @EcoFlowTech: zdnet.com/home-and-office/en… #PowerSystemResilience #homeowner #renter

This is thanks to Rep. Ward’s HB340, passed unanimously this session. pv-magazine-usa.com/2025/03/…

Plug and play permitless balcony solar is coming to the US and starting in Utah! Energy abundance!

Viable direction for reducing #PFAS based on real-world tests. Study at pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…, also identify advantages of #nanocages over other purification methods like #ActivatedCarbon, #ReverseOsmosis, ... (eg. costs, impacts) HT @StBonaventure @UBuffalo @stonybrooku
Look forward to next phase of #PublicPrivatePartnership for scaling reusable & low-cost sponge, affinity for #lead, #phosphate, #microplastics, & more based on small tests. HT @NSF #GreatLakesWaterInnovationEngine: nsf.gov/funding/initiatives/… + @northwesternu: news.northwestern.edu/storie…
Check out research at journals.aps.org/prresearch/…, model & physics-based avenues for controlling #emerin #nanodomain self-assembly by modifying the emerin reaction or diffusion properties. Emerin has been shown to have diverse functions <eg. gene expression, cell signaling> #proteins
Based on views on harm & human bias in centralized lists, identity theft, fraud. Time to revisit #blockchain & #tokenization with #CAC to create more secure, user-centric, self-sovereign tech for “#NationalID.” Example: sciencedirect.com/science/ar… & Why: identity.utexas.edu/sites/de…
DOGE by #ExecutiveOrder with limited challenges by #Congress <eg. cdt.org/wp-content/uploads/2…> = federal expansion of centralized identification system that is a form of “#NationalID” & dismissal of Congress, history, & civics <eg. heritage.org/civil-society/r… & cato.org/sites/cato.org/file…>
With #Turtle Tracker + #Marine Animal Surfacing Simulator @CellTrackTech = better #wildlife data <eg. 1yr+ vs hours, days, weeks, seasonal use> & #MOTUS expansion/ integration with other networks = better resolution of temporal landscape of #animal occurence. #citizenscience #IoT

So long and thanks for all the fish! I just observed my last star this morning... #GaiaDPAC and @esa Gaia teams will do their best to make some great data releases from all the data I gathered! #GaiaDR4 in 2026, #GaiaDR5 around the end of the decade. Keep posted for our news items today at 10:00 CET.

When we say “Watch Duty is built for first responders”, that’s not marketing. That’s our mission and a promise.

Sorry to burst your bubble but there aren't enough men, women, or equipment to deploy enough water to stop wind driven fires like this.
Why don't you take some of that "go to mars" money and actually help rather than Monday morning quarterbacking during a live fire?

Drone pilots in Southern California! Flying your drone without authorization near a wildfire can prevent official aircraft firefighting efforts. The response is rapidly evolving, always check for Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFRs) before you fly at bit.ly/2NNkeOf.

NEWS: The FAA has expanded the size of a ban on non-firefighting aircraft from over the Los Angeles area wildfires. It now stretches over Hollywood Hills, Calabasas, Paramount Ranch National Park, and Century City.
