A team led by University of Minnesota scientists and engineers has discovered a new method for tuning the thermal conductivity of materials to control heat flow "on the fly." Their tuning range is the highest ever recorded among one-step processes in the field and will open a door to developing more energy-efficient and durable electronic devices. The U.S. National Science Foundation - supported research is published in Nature Communications. Just as electrical conductivity determines how well a material can transport electricity, thermal conductivity describes how well a material can transport heat.

Royal Air Force personnel have returned to the UK after leading NATO's Baltic air policing mission in Estonia for four months, during which pilots intercepted 50 Russian aircraft and flew for a combined total of more than 500 hours. Members of 140 Expeditionary Air Wing (140 EAW) have been deployed to Ämari Air Base since the start of March, along with a squadron of RAF Typhoon fighter jets, to conduct Quick Reaction Alert (QRA) intercepts of Russian aircraft transiting close to NATO airspace. Typhoon jets and their pilots from IX(Bomber) and 1(Fighter) squadrons had deployed to Estonia from RAF Lossiemouth, where the majority of 140 EAW's personnel have now returned.

Hours after Moira Dela Torre maintained that she never employed a ghostwriter, songwriter Lolito Go released a screenshot of his conversation with a deactivated Facebook user, who offered to pay Go to be their ghostwriter. Go, who claimed that Dela Torre had asked him to be her ghostwriter and who accused her of being 'more of an oppressor than a victim' to her estranged husband Jason Marvin Hernandez, shared the conversation dated May 3, 2022, through his Facebook page. 'Sure, kuya! Can I get you as ghostwriter for my new album[?] I'll pay you monthly for two months,' the message read, to which Go replied, 'Thank you so much!' Go then sent the Facebook user a May 2022 report about Dela Torre and her song 'Ipanalo Natin ‘To,' which was co-written by Go.

Researchers at Oxford Population Health have found that having poor metabolic health was related to an increased risk of developing dementia in a study of more than 176,000 individuals. Poor metabolic health was defined as having three or more of the following conditions: high waist circumference, high triglycerides, high blood pressure, high blood glucose, and low high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, sometimes known as 'good' cholesterol. This cluster of conditions is commonly known as 'metabolic syndrome'.
