A specialized 3-D printing extruder developed by a University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) sophomore and his collaborator could lower the costs of printing cellular structures for use in drug testing. The CarmAl extruder – shorthand for Carbohydrate Anhydrous Rapid Manufacturing Aluminum extruder – its controlling software and the manufacturing processes being developed by second-year

IT’S a heavy price to pay for a sweet tooth.   Researchers have tricked glucose-eating cancer cells into consuming a sugar that essentially poisons them – it leaves a “suicide” switch within the cells open to attack. “Most cancer cells rely almost exclusively on glucose to fuel their growth,” says Guy Perkins of the University

A group of physicists at UNSW Sydney have built a super-fast version of the central building block of a quantum computer. The research is the milestone result of a vision first outlined by scientists 20 years ago. A group of scientists led by 2018 Australian of the Year Professor Michelle Simmons have achieved the first

University of Virginia scientists have demonstrated that neurons in the brain that have been supplemented with a synthetic gene can be remotely manipulated by a magnetic field. The finding has implications for possible future treatment of a range of neurological diseases, such as schizophrenia and Parkinson’s disease. “We may have discovered a major step toward

Can your AI agent judge when to talk to you while you are driving?  According to a KAIST research team, their in-vehicle conservation service technology will judge when it is appropriate to contact you to ensure your safety. Professor Uichin Lee from the Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering at KAIST and his research team

The good news is that the flywheels are still making money   Efforts to integrate storage into electric grids continue to struggle as a federally backed flywheel company goes bankrupt More than 200 tops spin in vessels half-buried in the dirt outside Stephentown, N.Y., a town near the Massachusetts state line. Inside the vessel a

Cancer: Antibodies Can Directly Target Oncoproteins Inside Cancer Cells to Suppress Aggressive Cancer Growth Scientists at A*A*STAR‘s Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology (IMCB) have made a landmark discovery in the battle against the rapid spread of aggressive cancers associated with PRL-3 oncoprotein[1]. Contrary to the current accepted theory that antibodies can only bind to
