Gloop from the deep sea
Jan 21, 2016 (SPX)
This animal has done everything right. It has been around for 300 million years, outlived the dinosaurs and survived the catastrophic meteorite impact, warm pha...
High-performance material polyimide for the first time with angular shape
Jan 21, 2016 (SPX)
Polyimides withstand extreme heat and chemically aggressive solvents, while being considerably less dense than metals. That is why they are very popular in indu...
CSU imaging tool maps cells' composition in 3-D
Jan 21, 2016 (SPX)
A one-of-a-kind instrument built at CSU lets scientists map cellular composition in three dimensions at the nanoscale, allowing researchers to watch how cells r...
Bridging the Bio-Electronic Divide
Jan 20, 2016 (SPX)
A new DARPA program aims to develop an implantable neural interface able to provide unprecedented signal resolution and data-transfer bandwidth between the huma...
Single molecule detection of contaminants, explosives or diseases
Jan 20, 2016 (SPX)
A technique that combines the ultrasensitivity of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) with a slippery surface invented by Penn State researchers will make ...
It's a 3-D printer, but not as we know it
Jan 20, 2016 (SPX)
3D printing techniques have quickly become some of the most widely used tools to rapidly design and build new components. A team of engineers at the University ...
NASA's Van Allen Probes Revolutionize View of Radiation Belts
Jan 20, 2016 (SPX)
About 600 miles from Earth's surface is the first of two donut-shaped electron swarms, known as the Van Allen Belts, or the radiation belts. Understanding the s...
NASA Chooses Avere to Launch its Data onto the AWS Cloud
Jan 20, 2016 (SPX)
Avere Systems reports that NASA has selected Avere to help consolidate legacy storage and move many of its datasets to the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud. Aver...
Microsoft donates cloud computing 'worth $1 bn'
Jan 19, 2016 (AFP)
Microsoft said Tuesday it will put a billion dollars' worth of cloud computing power in the hands of non-profit groups and university researchers free of charge...
Metamaterials boost sensitivity of MRI machines
Jan 18, 2016 (SPX)
A group of researchers from Russia, Australia and the Netherlands have developed a technology that can reduce Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scanning times by...
3-D mapping of entire buildings with mobile devices
Jan 18, 2016 (SPX)
When Thomas Schops wants to create a three-dimensional model of the ETH Zurich main building, he pulls out his tablet computer. As he completes a leisurely walk...
Color-changing indicators highlight microscopic damage
Jan 18, 2016 (SPX)
Damage developing in a material can be difficult to see until something breaks or fails. A new polymer damage indication system automatically highlights areas t...
All-antiferromagnetic memory could get digital data storage in a spin
Jan 18, 2016 (SPX)
If you haven't already heard of antiferromagnetic spintronics it won't be long before you do. This relatively unused class of magnetic materials could be about ...
Recycling light
Jan 18, 2016 (SPX)
Humanity started recycling relatively early in its evolution: there are proofs that trash recycling was taking place as early as in the 500 BC. What about light...
