Researchers from North Carolina State University and Elon University have developed a technique that allows them to remotely control the movement of soft robots, lock them into position for... Read more
It is possible to unlearn fears. And this works even better when a specific region of the brain has previously been stimulated magnetically. This has been shown by researchers from the Würzb... Read more
The possibility of directly controlling quantum states may be important for possible future quantum computers. Superconductivity and magnetic fields are normally seen as rivals – very strong... Read more
The advance could yield a new class of nanoscale applications that use light instead of electricity. Stanford researchers in physics and engineering have demonstrated a device that produces... Read more
It may be possible to conjure swarms of microscopic bubble robots out of nothing . . . We’re used to thinking of robots as mechanical entities, but at very small scales, it some... Read more
Spanish researchers have designed what they believe to be a new type of magnetic cloak, which shields objects from external magnetic fields, while at the same time preventing any magnetic in... Read more
Overly-viscous blood can damage blood vessels and lead to heart attacks. Therefore, people who are at risk of heart attacks take medications such as Aspirin, in order to thin their blood. Su... Read more
Straining graphene creates strongest pseudo-magnetic fields ever sustained in a lab Graphene, the one-atom-thick material made up of a honeycomb lattice of carbon atoms, has produced yet ano... Read more
