A severed mosquito proboscis can be turned into an extremely fine nozzle for 3D printing, and this could help create replacement tissues and organs for transplants.
I’ve linked to a decent write-up on Tom’s Hardware, but New Scientist covered it last week too.

I’m currently living in Canada and we’ve seen two snowflakes this entire winter (they fell in October)
Lucky.
We have had full snow cover since mid-october here. But it has also been +3-5c most afternoons.
Although early snow often means warmer winter. And I can definitely handle the snow in QC better than the -40s I used to get in AB.
