Solar panels are notoriously difficult to recycle and end up in landfills. This has a severe impact on your health and the environment. However, a team of researchers at the Indian Institute of Science in Bengaluru is exploring whether old discarded solar panels can be reused as building material.

Co-founders of Mindtree Subroto Bagchi and N S Parthasarathy announced that they will donate Rs 425 to the IISC’s upcoming not-for-profit multi-speciality hospital and medical school.

The Indian Institute of Science (IISc) Bengaluru was established on 27 May 1909 by Jamsetji Nusserwanji Tata. In 112 years the institute has conducted cutting-edge research in various scientific fields and provided innovative solutions.

Cutting the price of such generators from Rs 1 lakh to Rs 10,000, these devices can even be used in remote villages.

This can be integrated with a cell phone, or a small device at every traffic signal which can transmit the data to your cell phone through Bluetooth

Pandorum Technologies, a Bangalore-based biotech startup, was started by IISc alumni. They have now developed an artificial human liver that can be grown in the lab. Read on to know more about this breakthrough innovation.
