Hydrodynamic field inside and outside the skeletal structure of the Euplectella aspergillum glass sponge. The field was reconstructed using CINECA super-computers. Kinetic methodologies and advanced…
If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck. Scientists on the hunt…
Engineers have developed a sweat-proof “electronic skin” — a conformable, sensor-embedded sticky patch that reliably monitors a person’s health, even when a wearer is perspiring.…
Multimodal nanosensors (1) are engineered to target and respond to hallmarks in the tumor microenvironment. The nanosensors provide both a noninvasive urinary monitoring tool (2)…
A team of researchers created a new method to capture ultrafast atomic motions inside the tiny switches that control the flow of current in electronic…
The researchers used a powder engineering method to create a high-quality version of FAPbI3. First, they mixed formamidinium acetate (FAAc) with hydroiodic acid (HI). PbI2…
