MPQ scientists achieve long storage times for photonic quantum bits which break the lower bound for direct teleportation in a global quantum network. Concerning the development of quantum me... Read more
Specialized droplets interact with bacteria and can be analyzed using a smartphone. The foodborne pathogen Escherichia coli O157 causes an estimated 73,000 illnesses and 60 deaths every year... Read more
Ciliates can do amazing things: Being so tiny, the water in which they live is like thick honey to these microorganisms. In spite of this, however, they are able to self-propel through water... Read more
Super-sharp images from within the human body made through tiny endoscopes have come a step closer to reality thanks to joint research by scientists from the University of Twente’s MES... Read more
For tiny fractions of a second, quartz glass can take on metallic properties, when it is illuminated be a laser pulse. This has been shown by calculations at the Vienna University of Technol... Read more
“Electrical control of a property that formerly could only be tuned through structural changes will enable significant new possibilities when designing the smallest possible devices fo... Read more
This provides a very intuitive experience, like the hand being ‘pulled’ toward the target. Researchers at HIIT and Max Planck Institute for Informatics show how computer vision -... Read more
“Our process is easier to control, quicker to implement and more cost-effective” One of the more promising developments in the field of medical technology involves the use of microsphe... Read more
These cells hold great long-term medical potential Skipping pluripotency ‘detour,’ Max Planck researcher Prof. Schöler again takes lead in stem cell research Breaking new ground,... Read more
This “share-the-spoils” button has been discovered Suppose scientists discovered a clump of neurons in the brain that, when stimulated, turned people into egalitarians. This would be... Read more
Max Planck scientists have used silk from the tasar silkworm as a scaffold for heart tissue. Damaged human heart muscle cannot be regenerated. Scar tissue grows in place of the damaged muscl... Read more
The passwords of the future could become more secure and, at the same time, simpler to use. Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for the Physics of Complex Systems in Dresden have been in... Read more
