Whether staphylococcus or the dreaded MRSA germs: resistant bacteria are a problem for physicians and patients worldwide. Only a few weeks ago, several large…
The spread of infectious diseases such as Zika depends on many different factors. Environmental factors play a role, as do socioeconomic factors.
They will be presenting their technologies at the medical technology trade fair Medica held from 17 to 21 November in Düsseldorf at the Rhineland-Palatinate…
“A big problem associated with type 2 diabetes is that beta cells stop functioning properly and fade away,” said senior author Dr. James C. Lo, assistant…
The wireless Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of devices in which each device can directly send information to another over wireless channels of…
A truly remarkable property of quantum materials, superconductivity is the complete loss of electrical resistance under quite specific, and sometimes very…
Mosquitoes flap their wings not just to stay aloft but for two other critical purposes: to generate sound and to point that buzz in the direction of a…
In a new study, led by Petra Fromme and Nadia Zatsepin at the Biodesign Center for Applied Structural Discovery, the School of Molecular Sciences and the…
The mapping of the human genome in the early 21st century and understanding the nucleic acid sequence have provided ample opportunities for research on both…
Quantum-based communication and computation technologies promise unprecedented applications, such as unconditionally secure communications, ultra-precise…
One of the more unexpected things that can be done with charge-neutral atoms is to use them to emulate the fundamental behaviour of electrons. In the past few…
