USDA may have removed climate change research from its website, but the private market continues to pursue solutions to climate change problems. One of the potential solutions involves sequestering carbon in farmland soil by increasing the amount of carbon dioxide that is pulled from the air and stored in the soil each year. These soil carbon contracts are widely available to midwestern row crop farmers, but uptake remains slim.

When implanted medical devices like urinary stents and catheters get clogged with biofilms, the usual solution is to take them out and replace them with new ones. Now, however, researchers at the University of Bern and ETH Zurich, Switzerland have developed an alternative. By incorporating ultrasound-activated moving structures into their prototype “stent-on-a-chip” device, they showed it is possible to remove biofilms without removing the device itself.
