Sandra Rossie, a professor of biochemistry, found that increasing the amount of protein phosphatase 5, or PP5, in rat neural cells resulted in less cell death…
For example, there should be no particles larger than five micrometers on the packaging film of food and medicines, as these could contaminate the contents….
The repair of damaged nerve cells is a major problem in medicine today. A new study by researchers at the Montreal NeurologicaI Institute and Hospital (The…
The study looked at patients with nasopharyngeal cancer, a tumor that grows behind the nose and at the top of the throat, above the tonsils. This rare cancer…
It is the first time an autoimmune response – a condition whereby the body can attack itself – has been shown to cause damage to bones directly. Researchers…
Batteries can power anything from small sensors to large systems. While scientists are finding ways to make them smaller but even more powerful, problems can…

Chemical images taken of insides of bacteria 30 times clearer than those from conventional mid-infrared microscopes. A team at the University of Tokyo have constructed an improved mid-infrared microscope, enabling…
Researchers at the University of Copenhagen’s Niels Bohr Institute have developed a new way to create quantum memory: A small drum can store data sent with light in its sonic…
Researchers turn metal waste into catalyst for hydrogen. Scientists have found a way to transform metal waste into a highly efficient catalyst to make hydrogen from water, a discovery that…
In their natural environment, wild bees are exposed to various pesticides that can have a potentially toxic effect. A study by the University of Würzburg has now shown that bumblebees…
Research team at the University of Freiburg discovers previously unknown gene that indirectly promotes photosynthesis. Cyanobacteria – also called blue-green algae – are known as the “plants of the ocean”…
In research that may lead to next-generation airplanes and spacecraft, MIT engineers used carbon nanotubes to prevent cracking in multilayered composites. To save on fuel and reduce aircraft emissions, engineers…
…enabler of the emerging ferroelectricity in binary oxides. In a recent study published in Materials Futures, researchers have uncovered a pivotal mechanism driving the emergence of ferroelectricity in binary oxides….
How hidden emptiness can define the usefulness of filtration materials. Voids, or empty spaces, exist within matter at all scales, from the astronomical to the microscopic. In a new study,…
CeTI Cluster of Excellence at TU Dresden opens “robot kitchen”. April 15, 2024, the Cluster of Excellence Centre for Tactile Internet with Human-in-the-Loop (CeTI) at TUD Dresden University of Technology…
In a significant milestone for quantum communication technology, an experiment has demonstrated how networks can be leveraged to combat disruptive ‘noise’ in quantum communications. The international effort led by researchers…
A team from UPV and iPRONICS has manufactured the first universal, programmable and multifunctional photonic chip on the market. A team from the Photonics Research Laboratory (PRL)-iTEAM of the Universitat…
