Chinese companies such as Robotera, Agibot, Fourier, Galbot, Unitree and XPENG showcased advanced humanoid robots that impressed trade fair visitors. The development of humanoid robots has experienced rapid growth in recent years, mainly due to advances in artificial intelligence and machine learning.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Humanoid robots are becoming increasingly capable of learning, adapting and performing tasks in a wide range of industrial and societal sectors. With advances in generative artificial intelligence, robots can now mimic human actions and learn from experience. At CES 2025, it was possible to see a number of robots that will play an important role in the future in areas such as elderly care, home assistance, logistics, catering and even the military.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Humanoid robots are evolving rapidly due to increased investment in research and development and growing demand, which is reflected in a growing market. In 2023, the global market for humanoid robots was worth US$ 2.43 billion, and is expected to grow to US$ 66 billion by 2023. The main growth drivers are labour shortages, an ageing population and the need for automation in various industrial sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chinese companies such as UBTech Robotics are already developing humanoid robots for various industries including automotive and logistics, while the Chengdu Innovation Centre is working on advanced technology for humanoid robots. In addition, China is also supporting the development of robotics through the establishment of a $1.4 billion special fund for robotics, which will promote technological innovation and accelerate the commercialisation of these advanced technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Find out more:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.izvoznookno.si\/aktualno\/na-sejmu-ces-2025-so-najvec-pozornosti-pritegnili-\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">exportnookno.si<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/circuitdigest.com\/articles\/business\/amazing-robots-unveiled-by-the-innovative-companies-at-consumer-electronics-show-ces-2025\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">circuitdigest.com<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prepared by Sonja Zagorc Konti\u0107, univ. dipl.

They have also found out how the brain's molecular mechanisms adapt to acute challenges.<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The brain produces a neurosteroid called allopregnanolone, or AP, in response to acute stress - a brief but intense reaction to a sudden challenge or threat. Elevated levels are a key part of the body's initial response to stress, helping individuals to adapt quickly and regulate their reactions. For example, when faced with stressful events such as imminent danger, elevated levels of AP increase focus and energy, helping individuals to stay on track and respond effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The production of AP depends on an enzyme called 5\u03b1-reductase, or 5\u03b1R, which exists in two main forms: 5\u03b1R1 and 5\u03b1R2. Animal studies by researchers at the UF College of Pharmacy have revealed how these enzymes work and highlighted biological differences in stress responses between men and women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Men are generally more prone to show outward, aggressive reactions, while women are much more prone to internalise their responses. This difference is thought to contribute to the higher prevalence of anxiety and depression in women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The study showed that acute stress increases 5\u03b1R2 levels in the forebrain of male laboratory rats - but not 5\u03b1R1. Female rats showed no such change, suggesting a significant sex-specific difference. The researchers have thus identified the possibility of stress management at the molecular level. The researchers found that 5\u03b1R2 is essential for AP production during stress, while 5\u03b1R1 helps maintain baseline levels of this neurosteroid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source: University of Florida, 13 February 2025<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Find out more:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.science.org\/doi\/10.1126\/sciadv.adr0563\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">science.org<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prepared by: dr.

She spent part of her youth in her native village, then moved to Ljubljana to study. After graduating from high school, she enrolled at the Institute of Chemistry of the Faculty of Technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Snegulka Detoni completed her studies in 1944 as the first graduate of physics professor Anton Peterlin with a thesis on the optical properties of starch solutions entitled&nbsp;<em>Toxic double fracture of starch solutions<\/em>. She found her first job in 1945 at the Institute of Bacteriology of the Faculty of Medicine. In 1946, at the invitation of the renowned physics professor and later academician Anton Peterlin (1908-1993), Snegulka Detoni took up a position at the Department of Physics of the Faculty of Technology.<sup> <\/sup>She has devoted herself to hydrogen bonding research using vibrational spectroscopy and to the preparation of suitable compounds and crystals. She has studied the infrared and Raman spectra of organic molecules with S-O, Se-O, P-O and C-N bonds and organic acids with strong and weak bonds. As a continuation of the work started for her degree, she drew up a plan for the construction of a Couette camera for measuring string double-breaks, which was to be built in the Mechanical Engineering Department of the Faculty of Engineering, but the construction was too slow. In 1954, she moved to the Department of Structural Chemistry and, under the mentorship of the chemist, educator and later academic Dusan Had\u017ei (1921-2019), she started researching the structure of sulfinic acids. She defended this topic in her doctoral thesis in 1956, the first female scientist to receive a PhD at the Faculty of Technology (only Vida Ti\u0161ler Kuhelj received her PhD in 1957).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Anton Moljk became Snegulka's life companion, whom she married at a ripe old age, but they had no children. She died on 14 January 2016 at the age of 94 in a senior citizens' home in Bokalci. She was buried in the cemetery in her birthplace Begunje near Cerknica.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source: Institute of Chemistry, 10 February 2025<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Find out more:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ki.si\/novica\/snegulka-detoni-prva-slovenska-fizicarka-predavateljica-in-kemicarka-ki-se-je-posvecala-predvsem-raziskavam-vodikove-vezi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.ki.si<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prepared by: dr.

Their dual action makes them a powerful defence tool of the innate immune system in the fight against harmful microbes. Cancer cells, however, have invented many ways to hide from the immune system, allowing disease to develop. Following the example of inflammasomes, researchers at the Institute of Chemistry have developed a new therapeutic approach, cytokine-enriched pyroptosis, whereby tumours are first induced to secrete immunostimulatory cytokines locally, and then immunogenically induce cell death of the cancer cells.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source: Institute of Chemistry, 15 January 2025<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Find out more:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/s41467-024-55083-3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">nature.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prepared by: dr.

general public, will take place this year from Friday, 11 April to Sunday, 13 April 2025.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">OHS is part of the international Open House Worldwide network, which takes place by organising guided tours and excursions to selected buildings in Slovenia and abroad, starting from the Slovenian Contemporary Architecture web portal, where the interested public can learn directly about the highest quality architectural and landscape designs, as well as their designers, contractors, investors and users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to the unique direct experience of experiencing interesting and innovative architectural creations, the festival also aims to exchange practical experience, enhance spatial culture and foster personal and business networking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Open House Festival of Slovenia will take place for the 16th time in 2025. It will provide the general public with free access to the most modern Slovenian architectural projects and other important cultural heritage projects. The tours offer visitors a personal experience in architecture and reveal stories about the process of design, construction\/renovation and use of the buildings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All proposed or submitted projects will be reviewed in advance by the OHS jury and assessed for their suitability for presentation at the Architecture Festival. Approved projects are automatically included in the Slovenian Architecture Collection on the OHS online platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>How are the tours at the festival organised?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>After the jury's approval, the project is included in the festival programme, which is published about one month before the festival.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Up to 3 viewing appointments per project or by arrangement with the owner and the author.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Each tour lasts about 45 minutes. There are 20 - 45 visitors per group.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Applications for tours of projects and external developments open 10 days before the OHS Festival. Visitor registration is compulsory.

During the exam period, there are long queues outside our library, as we are one of the few facilities that remains open late into the night. The demand for reading places far exceeds the available capacity, which shows the great need for additional study spaces in the capital.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We understand the importance of a friendly and accessible study environment, and we are working to improve it - both by ensuring optimal conditions in existing reading rooms and by planning new ones for the future. Nevertheless, problems of space constraints remain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Perhaps one possible solution would be for faculties to temporarily dedicate some of their lecture rooms to teaching during exam periods. This would give students more opportunities to prepare well for exams and allow the university to make better use of the existing facilities for the benefit of the academic community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CTK remains a reliable partner for students and educational institutions - not only through its accessibility, but also through its vision of improvements for the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Find out more:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/val202.rtvslo.si\/podkast\/vroci-mikrofon\/584\/175107170\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Hot Microphone - Val 202<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.24ur.com\/novice\/svet\/premalo-mest-v-citalnicah-kje-naj-se-studentje-ucijo.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">24ur.com: not enough places in reading rooms<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rtvslo.si\/lokalne-novice\/ljubljana\/sou-v-ljubljani-se-zavzema-za-razsiritev-kapacitet-in-daljsi-odpiralni-cas-citalnic\/735490\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RTVSLO: \u0160OU in Ljubljana to expand reading room capacity<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/ljubljanainfo.com\/novica\/lokalno\/studijski-koticki-v-ljubljani-res-v-univerzitetnem-mestu-ni-niti-ena-citalnica\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ljubljanainfo: Study corners in Ljubljana<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prepared by Sonja Zagorc Konti\u0107, univ. dipl.

The study reveals, among other things, the key role of early supernovae in its formation.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Space dust is made up of tiny solid particles and is the fundamental building block of galaxies. It plays a key role in star formation, allowing clouds of molecular gas to form. Dust also absorbs, scatters and eventually re-emits the light from stars in galaxies, depending on their wavelength. This process, known as attenuation, is mathematically described by an attenuation curve that depends on the properties of the dust, such as grain size and chemical composition, and its spatial distribution relative to the stars in the galaxy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The researchers made the discovery using data from the James Webb Space Telescope, currently the most advanced space observatory designed to study the early Universe, the formation of galaxies, stars and planets, and the search for signs of life beyond our Solar System.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uni-lj.si\/novice\/2025-01-06-raziskovalci-ul-fmf-sodelovali-pri-odstiranju-lastnosti-vesoljskega-prahu-v-galaksijah-zgodnjega-vesolja\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">University of Ljubljana<\/a> (accessed 18 February 2025)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prepared by Mojca Kosem Avsec, mag.

To achieve this, the efficient transfer of information between stakeholders is crucial, and this is the central theme of the T4RAIL IT-SI project, in which the Faculty of Maritime and Transport at the University of Ljubljana is participating. The project focuses on improving communication in the management of trains crossing borders. The aim is to analyse the use of a digital tool for translating messages in railway jargon and to update existing solutions for communication between drivers and traffic managers.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Under the current rules, drivers and transport operators need to know a cross-border language at B1 level. The project aims to facilitate communication with a tool that helps to overcome language barriers. Testing will take place at the border crossing points Villa Opicina-Se\u017eana and Gorizia CLe-Nova Gorica.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uni-lj.si\/novice\/2025-01-20-interreg-projekt-t4rail-it-si-za-ucinkovitejsi-prenos-informacij-v-zelezniskem-prometu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">University of Ljubljana<\/a> (accessed 18 February 2025)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prepared by Mojca Kosem Avsec, mag.

The reform increases legal certainty, reduces complexity and widens the availability of design rights, which will be of great benefit to creators and businesses across Europe.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">EU design applications can no longer be filed through national offices. All applications must now be filed directly with the EUIPO, simplifying the process and reducing complexity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The definition of \"design\" has been extended to animation, which is a much broader concept that also includes movement. The definition of \"product\" has been changed to explicitly include non-physical objects, user interfaces, (virtual) spaces, models ready for 3D printing, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The change is also in the direction of increasing the visibility of protected designs. Design holders will be able to use the \u24b9 symbol on their product, packaging or advertising. The reform will be gradual, including changes to fee prices and other matters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.euipo.europa.eu\/sl\/designs\/design-reform-hub\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">European Union Intellectual Property Office<\/a> (accessed 18 February 2025)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prepared by Mojca Kosem Avsec, mag.

The resulting rivers and groundwater springs carry large amounts of methane from under the ice into the atmosphere, accelerating global warming.<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Methane emissions from Arctic wetlands, permafrost and geological seepage are well known. However, the role of glacial meltwater in methane mobilisation has so far been largely overlooked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The researchers focused on Vall\u00e5krabreen, a small valley glacier in central Svalbard, where they measured methane levels in groundwater springs and in rivers draining from the glacier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their results have been stunning. They found that methane concentrations in the rivers of the melted glacier were up to 800 times higher than atmospheric equilibrium levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This methane was not produced by microbial activity under the ice, as previously thought, but came from thermogenic sources, i.e. methane trapped for millions of years in ancient geological formations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source: UiT The Arctic University of Norway, 19 February 2025<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Find out more:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/bg.copernicus.org\/articles\/22\/659\/2025\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">en.copernicus.org<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prepared by: dr.
