Science news is led by work that aims to change medical treatment and monitoring in practical ways, from fertility care to volcano surveillance. The day also shows how research and technical systems sit alongside risk, as eruption activity and transport-safety failures put people and infrastructure under pressure.
Australian scientists in Victoria are developing a needle-free IVF method that could become a world first. The work aims to replace the injections used in conventional in vitro fertilisation, potentially making treatment less invasive and easier for patients undergoing fertility care.
Mount Sinabung in North Sumatra erupts, sending a dark column of ash and smoke about 3.5 kilometres above the summit. The eruption highlights the continuing hazards posed by one of Indonesia’s closely watched volcanoes, with ash dispersal posing risks to nearby communities and aviation monitoring.
US federal authorities shut down hundreds of commercial driver’s license schools after finding failures in English proficiency requirements and other safety compliance standards.
