Inside every cell, thousands of different proteins form the machinery that keeps all living things — from humans and plants to microscopic bacteria — alive…
Millirobots that can adapt to unstructured environments, operate in confined spaces, and interact with a diverse range of objects would be desirable for exploration and…
Fluorescent imaging technique simultaneously captures different signal types from multiple locations in a live cell. Within a single cell, thousands of molecules, such as proteins,…
A new imaging technology lets scientists spy on the flurry of messages passed within cells as they do . . . potentially everything. Until…
Professor of Biomedical Engineering Adam Feinberg and his team have created the first full-size 3D bioprinted human heart model using their Freeform Reversible Embedding of…
High-resolution, 3D images of human chromosomes in single cells reveal how DNA structure might influence its function. In high school textbooks, human chromosomes are pictured…
Despite advances in sequencing technologies and computational methods in the past decade, researchers have uncovered genomes for just a small fraction of Earth’s microbial diversity….
An easy way to make millirobots by coating objects with a glue-like magnetic spray was developed in a joint research led by a scientist from City…
University of Delaware researchers develop low-cost method to decontaminate personal protective equipment. As the weather turns cooler and people move activities indoors, the number of…
The right indoor lighting can help set the mood, from a soft romantic glow to bright, stimulating colors. But some materials used for lighting, such…
Researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder are developing a wearable electronic device that’s “really wearable”—a stretchy and fully-recyclable circuit board that’s inspired by, and…
A team of scientists led by Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) has invented an artificial olfactory system that mimics the mammalian nose to assess…
Researchers from the Hubrecht Institute and Utrecht University developed an advanced technique that makes it possible to monitor a virus infection live. The researchers from…
During the COVID-19 pandemic, many people have become accustomed to wearing cotton face masks in public places. However, viruses and bacteria that stick to the…
A Potential Game-Changer to Reverse Alcohol Intoxication A staggering 3 million deaths occur every year as result from harmful use of alcohol, according to the…
Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine describe, in the journal Science, a new method to extract tiny but extremely powerful SARS-CoV-2 antibody…
Using “lab on a chip” technology, Stanford engineers have created a microlab half the size of a credit card that can detect COVID-19 in just…
Finding just the right model to study human development — from the early embryonic stage onward — has been a challenge for scientists over the…
