Τραγική κατάληξη είχε τροχαίο δυστύχημα που σημειώθηκε μετά τη 1 τα ξημερώματα στη Λεωφόρο Ηρακλειδών, μεταξύ Ιαλυσού και Κρεμαστής, με θύμα έναν ημεδαπό. Ο οδηγός του δικύκλου συγκρούστηκε με Ι.Χ. επιβατηγό όχημα που οδηγούσε  20χρονος, με αποτέλεσμα να τραυματιστεί θανάσιμα. Την προανάκριση για τις συνθήκες κάτω από τις οποίες  συνέβη το δυστύχημα διενεργεί η Τροχαία Ρόδου. Φωτογραφία : Μουσταφά Σιεχ www.ertnews.gr

Σύμφωνα με τη Ισραηλινή Δημόσια Ραδιοτηλεόραση “KAN”, η οποία επικαλείται ιρανικές αναφορές, η Τεχεράνη συμφώνησε προχθες σε κατάπαυση του πυρός με το Ισραήλ, αφού έλαβε αμερικανικές εγγυήσεις ότι το Ισραήλ θα μειώσει τον ρυθμό των στρατιωτικών επιχειρήσεών του στον Λίβανο, καθώς και ότι θα απελευθερωθούν 3 δισεκατομμύρια δολάρια από παγωμένα ιρανικά περιουσιακά στοιχεία. Σύμφωνα με το δημοσίευμα, το οποίο βασίζεται σε πληροφορίες ιρανικού πρακτορείου ειδήσεων προσκείμενου στους Φρουρούς της Επανάστασης, τα χρήματα μεταφέρθηκαν από το Άμπου Ντάμπι στην Τεχεράνη με ιδιωτικό αεροσκάφος, παρά τους περιορισμούς που ισχύουν για τις αερομεταφορές στο Ιράν. Μέχρι στιγμής δεν έχει υπάρξει επίσημο σχόλιο από τις Ηνωμένες Πολιτείες, το Ισραήλ ή τα Ηνωμένα Αραβικά Εμιράτα σχετικά με την ακρίβεια των πληροφοριών αυτών.

Credit: Thomas Wolf, CC-BY-SA-3-0/Wikipedia A major international ranking has highlighted eleven Greek scientists who have made it into the global elite of research. Spanning institutions from Stanford and Columbia to the University of Crete, these researchers are recognized among the top 1,000 scientists worldwide in their respective fields. This prestigious list is compiled annually by Research.com, a prominent educational platform and academic research portal. To build these rankings, Research.com analyzes data from millions of scientists globally, evaluating their career achievements based heavily on a standard academic metric called the h-index. The h-index is a metric used to measure both the productivity (how much they publish) and the impact (how often other scientists use their work) of a researcher. The Top 11 Greek Scientists Here is a summary of the researchers making waves in the global scientific community: 1. John Ioannidis (Stanford University) Dr. John Ioannidis. Courtesy Dr. Ioannidis A professor of medicine at Stanford and one of the world’s most-cited scientists. He is a pioneer in “meta-research”—the study of scientific methods themselves to improve the quality and reliability of research. 2. George Yancopoulos (Regeneron Pharmaceuticals) George Yancopoulos. Public Domain A top biomedical scientist and billionaire co-founder of Regeneron. He is highly recognized for developing life-saving monoclonal antibody treatments, notably used to combat viruses like Ebola. 3. Tom Maniatis (Columbia University) Tom Maniatis.

Constantinos Stoumpos (University of Crete) One of the three researchers on the list based entirely in Greece. He is a materials chemist specializing in halide perovskites, which are highly efficient materials used to advance next-generation solar cells and electronics. 7. Costas Soukoulis (Iowa State University / FORTH) A physicist who split his career between the US and Greece. He is world-renowned for his groundbreaking research on metamaterials—artificial materials engineered to manipulate light and sound waves in ways natural materials cannot. 8. Spyros Pandis (University of Patras / FORTH) A chemical engineering professor based in Greece. He is an international authority on atmospheric chemistry and air pollution, focusing on how airborne particulate matter affects both human health and global climate change. 9.
