A Turkish researcher participated in an international scientific team that developed an innovative battery capable of generating electrical energy from sweat and moisture.

This new technology opens promising horizons for its use in operating wearable devices, such as smart watches and health monitoring devices, without the need for traditional energy sources.

The researchers believe that this innovation represents an important step towards developing sustainable and environmentally friendly energy solutions based on renewable natural sources.

A scientific study on the seismic analysis of the 6.1-magnitude Sindargi earthquakes, which occurred on August 10 and October 27, 2025, was published in the journal Seismological Research Letters, one of the scientific journals classified in the first category (Q1) in earth sciences.

The study was conducted under the leadership of the Center for Earthquake Research and Applications at Dokuz Eyl University, with the participation of the Faculty of Engineering, the Institute of Marine Science and Technology, and the Vocational Institute in Izmir, in addition to Researchers from Kutahya Dumlupinar and Zonguldak Bulent Ecevit Universities, and the General Directorate for Earthquake Risk Reduction of the Disaster and Emergency Management Authority (AFAD).

In the study, which began immediately after the main tremors, researchers used geomatic engineering methods, satellite imaging, remote sensing, and seismology techniques, and concluded that the fault that caused the earthquakes had “reactivated,” and that the two earthquakes had rare “hybrid” characteristics. And twin” at the same time.

The technology industry is witnessing a major legal battle in the midst of the race to dominate the artificial intelligence market, after Apple filed a lawsuit in the Northern District Court of California against OpenAI.

Apple alleges in the lawsuit that OpenAI illegally acquired confidential trade secrets and new-generation device designs, and used them in artificial intelligence device projects developed by the competing company and expected to be revealed this year. Apple is basing its lawsuit on two counts of misuse of trade secrets and breach of contracts.

Apple's accusations center around former employees who recently joined the ranks of OpenAI. The company alleges that engineer Zhang Liu, who left Apple in January 2026 to join OpenAI, did not restore the company's computers and, through his former colleague's computer, downloaded dozens of confidential files related to unreleased Apple products, along with engineering demos and technical data.
