Can the extinction of experience be reversed by citizen science?

Opportunities for people to interact with nature have declined over the past century, as most people now live in urban areas and spend much of their time indoors. And while adults are not only experiencing nature less, they are also less likely to take their children outdoors and shape their attitudes toward nature, creating a

Novel glass technology working at room temperature?

The technology for glass forming and shaping requires heat treatment at high temperatures of about 1000 degrees Celsius. So it has long been a mystery how it is that certain marine organisms are able to form glass architectures (called spicules) in cold water. Now, a paper published recently in Science Advancesby Professor Emil Zolotoyabko, of the

Micro- and nano-robots capable of self-repair with shape-memory effect in gold particles

Researchers from the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology and Germany have demonstrated for the first time the phenomena of shape memory and self-healing in gold microparticles. Achieved through defects-mediated diffusion in the particle, the discovery could one day lead to the development of micro- and nano-robots capable of self-repair; mechanically stable and damage-tolerant components and devices;

Personalized, accurate antibiotic treatments possible

A diagnostic system developed at the Technion enables rapid and accurate customization of the antibiotic to the patient. The system makes for faster diagnostics, earlier and more effective treatment of infectious bacteria, and improved patient recovery times. The findings were published this week in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). Prof. Shulamit Levenberg

A new approach to the production of hydrogen from water using solar energy

Technion-Israel Institute of Technology researchers have developed a new approach to the production of hydrogen from water using solar energy. In findings published today in Nature Materials, the researchers explain that it will make possible the production of hydrogen in a safe, centralized manner at the point of sale (for example, at a gas station

Different diseases are characterized by different chemical signatures identifiable in breath samples

You Are What You Exhale: Different Diseases Have Distinct Chemical Signatures An international team of 56 researchers in five countries has confirmed a hypothesis first proposed by the ancient Greeks – that different diseases are characterized by different “chemical signatures” identifiable in breath samples. The findings by the team led by Professor Hossam Haick of

First functional pacemaker cells for biological pacemaker therapy holds the promise of a lifelong cure

Scientists from the McEwen Centre for Regenerative Medicine, University Health Network, have developed the first functional pacemaker cells from human stem cells, paving the way for alternate, biological pacemaker therapy. Their findings, “Sinoatrial node cardiomyocytes derived from human pluripotent cells function as a biological pacemaker,” published online in Nature Biotechnology on Dec. 12, detail how

Water-wave laser for studying the interaction of light and fluid at the nanoscale level

Synopsis: Technion researchers have demonstrated, for the first time, that laser emissions can be created through the interaction of light and water waves. This “Water-wave laser” could someday be used in tiny sensors that combine light waves, sound and water waves, or as a feature on microfluidic “Lab-on-a-chip” devices used to study cell biology and
