A new review is presenting strong evidence the development of type 1 diabetes is linked to a large group of common viruses. The findings build on an old hypothesis, with vaccines currently in development targeting the most likely viral strains.

The Siena Photo Awards reliably deliver a most spectacular array of shots and this year’s winners are no exception, from tourists being accosted by polar bears and hippos, to surreal snaps of headless swimmers and Angelina Jolie covered in bees.

Ducati has expanded its best-selling Multistrada family with a new Rally model based on the luxurious V4 S and upgraded with a series of changes and new tech designed to enhance its touring character, both on and off the road.

This wonderfully odd idea appears to have genuine potential to radically improve the power, speed, efficiency, payload capacity, range, endurance and ground footprint of a wide range of VTOL aircraft and drones. We've never seen anything quite like it.

The Chinese city of Dalian has just switched on a world-leading new energy storage system, expected to supply enough power for up to 200,000 residents each day, with an initial capacity of 400 MWh and output of 100 MW.

Litelok is best known for its flexible textile/cable-based lightweight bike locks. It's now venturing into the world of rigid U locks, tough, with a model that is claimed to be more resistant to angle grinder attacks than anything else on the market.
