Former U.S. President and Republican presidential candidate Donald #Trump has announced Ohio Senator J.D. Vance as his vice-presidential running mate. #Vance hails from the working-class town of Middletown, Ohio, and gained prominence in Silicon Valley for his memoir "Hillbilly Elegy." Regarding foreign policy, Vance advocates realism that prioritizes American interests. He has consistently expressed strong support for Taiwan, asserting that the U.S. should aid Taiwan in the event of a Chinese military invasion to raise the costs for China. Vance has also noted U.S. dependence on Taiwanese chip production, and in an interview last April, he stated, "If the Taiwanese fall to China, it will cause a great depression in this country." He has also called for increased U.S. weapons production to assist #Taiwan. #politics #uselection #uspolitics #foreignpolicy #usrelations #internationalrelations

The energy-intensive nature of the textile industry means that according to MIT’s ‘Emissions Reduction Through Innovation in the Textile Industry’ factsheet, it is responsible for between 5% - 10% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Recycling old clothes seems an obvious solution, but the problem here has long been the dye removal process, which is energy-intensive, uses a chemical solution that leaves behind toxic waste and can only succeed in removing 80% of original dye, greatly limiting the use of the recycled textiles. This is where Taiwan’s Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) has made a significant breakthrough. With the development of the ‘puretex sustainable decolorization solution,’ a game-changing 45% reduction in energy usage is achieved together with a 99% rate of original dye removal. This new solution is also compatible with older dye removal equipment, meaning no new investment barrier for businesses to adopt this technology. Watch the full report: https://lnkd.in/gnXb7e6z

Cell therapy is at the forefront of biomedical innovation, offering breakthroughs in aging and treating various medical conditions. At #Taiwan's Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI)(工業技術研究院, 工研院), researchers are developing Key Functional Cell Identity (KFCI), a platform database that identifies cells capable of regenerating damaged tissues, marking a significant stride in medical science. #KFCI has shown success in treating 40 medical conditions, including heart attacks and chronic wounds in diabetic patients. These treatments manipulate cellular proteins to alter cell behavior and enhance outcomes. This advancement promises to extend life expectancy and improve the quality of life for millions. By targeting specific biomarkers and refining treatments, Taiwan positions itself as a leader in cell therapies, paving the way for transformative medical interventions.

As glaucoma and other eye conditions continue to rise in developed countries where multiple screen usage is prevalent, #Taiwan's scientists have taken a pioneering step forward in medical research. Leading this effort is the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI)(工業技術研究院, 工研院) in Taiwan, where researchers have developed a cutting-edge dual-target medicine designed to tackle glaucoma more effectively and safely than current treatments allow. Early indications from clinical trials are promising, suggesting that the medication could offer a game-changing treatment option for the estimated 430,000 individuals in Taiwan currently grappling with glaucoma. As glaucoma affects millions worldwide, this innovative medicine holds the promise of improving the quality of life for countless patients globally. If successful, it could redefine standards of care and set a new benchmark for treating this challenging eye condition on a global scale.

In his article for the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, Ngeow Chow Bing highlights how a conflict in the Taiwan Strait could deeply affect Southeast Asia. He suggests that such a conflict could involve the Philippines directly and cause serious humanitarian and economic problems across the region. The article also suggests that Southeast Asian countries might team up with the US to defend their interests. This is because China could extend its actions beyond the Taiwan Strait into the South China Sea. It points out that the Philippines is important strategically because of where it is and its alliances with the US. For expert insights into how ASEAN countries are managing US-China relations, tune in to "Taiwan Talks," where scholars delve deep into the discussion.

Trying to manage over 6000 employees, supervise research across dozens of disciplines and guide the technological development of a whole nation is no small challenge. Having spent thirty years working in the tech industry in the U.S., Edwin Liu decided to return to #Taiwan to take on this very challenge, becoming president of Taiwan’s Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI). While some of ITRI's research areas are beyond Liu's expertise, he believes that problem-solving skills are universally applicable across the scientific field and that the key for Taiwan’s technological future lies in having a clear roadmap for the way ahead.

Taiwan’s Ministry of Economic Affairs has approved TSMC's plan to invest an additional $10 billion overseas. The chip giant will allocate roughly half of this sum to its majority-owned fab in #Kumamoto, Japan, and the other half to its #Arizona site in the United States. With over $85 billion already invested in these projects, this move signifies a substantial commitment. Despite the funds leaving #Taiwan, the ministry emphasizes that this investment will enhance the global competitiveness of the country’s semiconductor industry. #technologytrends #TSMC #investmenttrends #worldeconomy #semiconductoryindustry #techtrends #geopolitics
