Researchers developed a leather alternative made from dormant fungus that can be reanimated and then regrow when damaged.

Today, more than half of the total energy produced by fossil fuels is lost as waste heat, accelerating global warming.

Nanoparticle-based technology can quickly and accurately identify cases of the Monkeypox virus, enabling prompt treatment and reducing the risk of further spread.

A rapid test for mpox, previously known as monkeypox, has been developed by researchers at Penn State University. The test is undergoing clinical analysis before it is made commercially available. The virus is typically transmitted by skin-to-skin contact and causes painful lesions. Last year's outbreak reached more than 100 countries and infected nearly 87,000 people globally. About one-third of the reported cases were in the U.S., where vaccine shortages and limited testing capacity slowed...

Diabetes mellitus is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by hyperglycemia resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. The chronic hyperglycemia associated with diabetes is not only inherently dangerous, but it also c

Researchers have shown that applying a thin coating of a dielectric material to the walls of a photobioreactor can prevent algae from sticking to them.

Although lithium-ion batteries are currently the pinnacle of battery technology, as the need for secure and reliable batteries grows, scientists are scrambling to discover what comes next.

Researchers from Pohang University of Science & Technology and Sogang University have found a way to boost EV battery range more than tenfold.

The electric vehicle market has been experiencing explosive growth,  with global sales surpassing $1 trillion (approx. KRW 1,283 trillion) in 2022 and domestic sales exceeding 108,000 units. Inevi ...

A research team led by Wang Ruibing, associate professor in the Institute of Chinese Medical Sciences (ICMS) at the University of Macau, has developed a supramolecularly engineered motorised cell platform as a nanomedicine carrier, based on the excellent inflammatory tropism of macrophages and the catalytic generation of oxygen as the propelling force.
