The ability of some animals, including chameleons, octopus, and squid, to change their skin colour for camouflage, temperature control, or communication is well known. While science has been... Read more
New analysis finds way to safely conduct heat from graphene to biological tissues In the future, our health may be monitored and maintained by tiny sensors and drug dispensers, deployed with... Read more
When one atom first meets another, the precise nature of that interaction can determine much about what kinds of physical properties and behaviours will emerge. In a paper published today in... Read more
Why send a message back in time, but lock it so that no one can ever read the contents? Because it may be the key to solving currently intractable problems. That’s the claim of an inte... Read more
Scientists have developed a 3-D printing method capable of producing highly uniform ‘blocks’ of embryonic stem cells. These cells – capable of generating all cell types in... Read more
Nearly 800 million people worldwide don’t have access to safe drinking water, and some 2.5 billion people live in precariously unsanitary conditions, according to the Centers for Disea... Read more
