Capturing and converting a toxic gaseous air pollutant into a useful industrial commodity using only water and air

A toxic pollutant produced by burning fossil fuels can be captured from the exhaust gas stream and converted into useful industrial chemicals using only water and air thanks to a new advanced material developed by an international team of scientists. New research led by The University of Manchester, has developed a metal-organic framework (MOF) material that

Hearts can be programmed to survive without oxygen

University of Manchester and University of North Texas scientists are the first to show that an embryonic living heart can be programmed to survive the effects of a low oxygen environment in later life. The BBSRC funded study of juvenile Common Snapping Turtles for the first time explains the heart’s biological mechanisms which help Turtles

An idea that could benefit millions of chronic pain sufferers worldwide

Scientists at The University of Manchester are developing a smart phone application connected to goggles which flash light at a special frequency to tune patients’ brains in a ground-breaking treatment for chronic pain. The phone app being developed by the team will eventually allow patients to choose between light, audio, or ‘neurofeedback’ treatments for pain.

Could the internet be changing the brain?

An international team of researchers from Western Sydney University, Harvard University, Kings College, Oxford University and University of Manchester have found the Internet can produce both acute and sustained alterations in specific areas of cognition, which may reflect changes in the brain, affecting our attentional capacities, memory processes, and social interactions. In a first of
