Today's riddle: Why does my coffee taste like dirt? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• New Wearable Sensor Uses Sweat to Monitor Health Continuously (techbriefs.com) — Researchers at UC Irvine have created a wireless, battery-free skin patch that continuously tracks key health markers like cortisol and glucose through sweat. Powered by a smartphone, the self-regenerating sensor could eventually support chronic disease management, stress monitoring, sports performance, and remote health tracking for residents and patients well beyond the campus.

• Outcomes of Traumatic Eyelid Laceration Repairs by Ophthalmology Residents Performed in the Emergency Department (cureus.com) — Local ophthalmology residents at UC Irvine participated in a multi-hospital study tracking how well emergency-room eyelid lacerations heal when repaired by trainees, with and without supervision. Results from Irvine and three other Southern California centers show complication and re-operation rates comparable to past research, while highlighting that junior residents appropriately seek senior help for more complex injuries.
