Italdesign Giugiaro has had a very nice string of Geneva show cars – last year's GEA autonomous concept, 2014's Clipper electric MPV, and 2013's Parcour off-road sports coupe. This year, it adds the GTZero, a modular, all-electric grand tourer packed with innovation.

A recently announced partnership with a New York City-based start-up is set to bolster Las Vegas' commitment to renewable energy sources. Soon enough, some of "Sin City's" sidewalks will be illuminated by EnGoPLANET's innovative, sun- and people-powered street lights.

In search of such a trigger to turn bad fat into good, scientists have uncovered a switch in the fat cells of mice that helps them shed the extra pounds. The good news? That very same switch is present in humans. ​​

Jeep never holds back when it comes time to stretch its imagination and create some crazy concepts. This year at the 50th Annual Easter Safari, the American off-roading brand has taken things to the next level with seven concepts, including a 707-hp Hellcat-powered Wrangler.

In the first study of its kind, a team of scientists has altered the seawater chemistry in a natural section of the Great Barrier Reef to mimic pre-industrial conditions, observing just how well the coral was able to grow before we came along and altered the landscape.

Bamboo-framed bikes certainly have an "organic" look, although some people might find it a little too Gilligan's Island-esque. That's why a team at England's Bamboo Bicycle Club has created what is claimed to be the world's first Aero Bamboo Bike.​

Vancouver is following the lead of other world cities by repurposing a disused rail line to create a new walking and cycling route. The Arbutus Greenway project will provide a continuous route for pedestrians and cyclists from Milton Street to 1st Avenue.

​You may have already heard about how the introduction of probiotic "beneficial bacteria" to the gut can aid in digestion. Now, scientists from the University of Florida are proposing doing something similar with peoples' mouths. The result could be a cavity-prevention pill.​

ODA New York has drawn inspiration from the way plants turn towards the sun while designing a residential high-rise concept. Bayside twists dramatically to offer occupants a better view than a standard building would.

Scientists are working on ways to create bioengineered human hearts by first stripping donor hearts of cells and then using the potential recipient's own induced pluripotent stem cells to generate cardiac muscle cells that can be used to repopulate the heart in an automated bioreactor system.

​Generally-speaking, hard objects and soft objects don't bond well together. Now, scientists at the University of Michigan have used that principle to develop one of the most ice-repellent coatings ever made. Its applications could range from airplane wings to car windshields to freezers.

The Jurni is aimed at making travel more bearable by allowing users to sit on it to rest, ride on it when queueing, and pull it along like a conventional wheeled case. Intrigued by​ the concept, we put one through its paces.​
