The emerging field of spintronics leverages electron spin and magnetization. This could enhance the storage capacity of computer hard drives and potentially…
Personalized medicine – delivering therapies specially tailored to a patient's unique physiology – has been a goal of researchers and doctors for a long time….
Persistent organic pollutants–or POPs–skulk around the environment threatening human health through direct contact, inhalation, and most commonly, eating…
The aim of the project was to develop a hierarchical and para-virtualized 5G access network architecture, which allows the shortest connection between end…
A new technique developed by Swiss researchers enables fast and accurate counting of gnu, oryx and other large mammals living in wildlife reserves. Drones are…
A recent study with significant participation by Kiel University (CAU) shows which genetic mutations cause developmental disorders and epilepsy. The results…
Cancer cells are cells over which the human body has lost control. The fact that they are transformed body cells makes it all the more difficult to combat them…
As an epoch-making achievement in nanotechnology, the scanning tunneling microscope has since the late 1980s been able to move atoms over surfaces, and has…
Directly converting electrical power to heat is easy. It regularly happens in your toaster, that is, if you make toast regularly. The opposite, converting heat…
The advance, published July 9 in Advanced Materials, could lead to cheaper, faster and portable biosensors for early detection of genetic markers for diseases…
The record achieved by the W7-X, the world's largest and most advanced stellarator, was the highest “triple product” that a stellarator has ever created. The…
The nuclei of cells are never static, even when the chromosomes they contain appear to be at rest. Theorists at Rice University have detailed the combination…
The fingerprint is unique in every individual: As no two fingerprints are the same, they have become the go-to method of identity verification for police,…
In February 2017, a fire rendered the equipment at Fraunhofer ISE’s Photovoltaic Technology Evaluation Center PV-TEC in the Solar Info Center in Freiburg…
The team, which included researchers from several international institutions, was led by IIASA researcher Aline Soterroni and Brazil’s National Institute for…
Due to its widespread occurrence and tendency to linger in the environment, black carbon may be one of the keys in predicting and mitigating global climate…
