As part of his master's thesis at TU Graz, Philipp Eisele developed a concept for a collaborative robot in 2019, i.e. an industrial robot that works together…
The smallest motor in the world – consisting of just 16 atoms: this was developed by a team of researchers from Empa and EPFL. “This brings us close to the…
A research team led by scientists at the Advanced Science Research Center at The Graduate Center, CUNY (CUNY ASRC), in collaboration with National University…
Miniaturization has pushed technology to a new era of optical circuitry. But, in parallel, it has also triggered new challenges and obstacles to overcome, for…
Monash researchers are part of an international collaboration applying 'twistronics' concepts (the science of layering and twisting 2D materials to control…
Findings – published in the journal Science – could shed light on learning disability and dementia and help to reveal how memories are affected by age.
Supercapacitors, with their high power density, fast charge-discharge rates, long cycle life, and cost-effectiveness, are a promising power source for…
The study, published June 11 in Stem Cell Reports, focused on targeting genetic mutations within retinal ganglion cells, which serve as the connection between…
In the U.S., someone has a heart attack every 40 seconds, and yet researchers have not had a model that fully mimics what occurs in the human heart after a…
Machine learning is a type of AI that allows computers to be trained by example data to make predictions for new instances. For example, a smart speaker…
Terahertz lasers could soon have their moment. Emitting radiation that sits somewhere between microwaves and infrared light along the electromagnetic spectrum,…
Published this week in Nature Communications, the work introduces a science of γPNA nanotechnology that enables self-assembly in organic solvent solutions, the…
The sheer endless expanses of the oceans are hostile deserts — at least from the perspective of a bacterium living in water. Tiny as it is, its chances of…
In the beginning there was the vesicle: A self-generated bubble similar to a soap bubble, enclosed by a membrane. It was surrounded by a liquid according to…
Insects that feed only on plants have a number of challenges to overcome. But they also have some active helpers to assist them with the supply of important…
Do plants attacked by herbivores produce substances that are most effective against attackers in a targeted manner, or are herbivore-induced changes in a plant…
