Researchers who developed a soft robot that could navigate simple mazes without human or computer guidance have now expanded on their work to develop a 'brainless' soft robot capable of navigating more complicated and dynamic surroundings.
Researchers have found the most robust way for controlling individual qubits made of the chemical element barium using laser light. The capacity to manipulate a qubit reliably is a significant step towards realising future functioning quantum computers.
A novel product developed by researchers at the University of Cincinnati can alert consumers to the early stages of tooth decay brought on by conditions like gingivitis and periodontitis.
Researchers have created a technique that uses machine learning with a human in the loop to automatically recognise and measure a material's microstructure from microscopic photographs.
Researchers found that identifying and analysing the volatile organic chemicals in individuals' exhaled breath who had malignant pleural mesothelioma showed promise as a screening tool for MPM.
The innovative device, which is the size and shape of a grain of rice, can perform hundreds of studies at the same time to examine the impact of novel treatments on some of the most difficult-to-treat brain tumours.
Researchers from Brigham and Women's Hospital, a founding member of the Mas
A new Nano Today study headed by researchers from the University of Pittsburgh and UPMC discovered that people with diabetes had faulty exosomes, which can cause inflammation and slow down wound healing. Exosomes are nanoparticles that transport signals between cells.
Sleep deprivation not only makes you feel terrible, but research has shown that it also affects your brain. Long-term sleep deprivation increases the risk of acquiring neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's.
Researchers are attempting to determine how a lack of sleep causes this damage.
Researchers at PSI have identified sesquiterpenes - gaseous hydrocarbons generated by plants - as a crucial contributor in cloud formation as part of the multinational CLOUD project at the nuclear research facility CERN. This discovery could help to reduce uncertainty in climate models and p
Now, a team led by Assistant Professor Yasuro Furuichi from Tokyo Metropolitan University have emerged with a key part of the puzzle. In previous work, they found that Musashi-2 (Msi2), a protein originally discovered in nerve cells, was also expressed in skeletal muscle tissue.
