Jerusalem (SPX) Aug 01, 2023 - A research team led by Prof. Yossi Paltiel at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem with groups from HUJI, Weizmann and IST Austria new study reveals the influence of nuclear spin on biological process

Last week it was claimed that a material that would be superconducting at  normal pressure has been found.  This substance known as LK-99 was alleged to be superconducting at normal atmospheric pressure and "room temperatures.  This would mean being able to say, make a superconducting power grid that could transport electricity witho

CARBONDALE, Ill. — Researchers at Southern Illinois University Carbondale will equip, coordinate and train teams of student eclipse observers across North America, playing a vital role in NASA’s plans to study the rare celestial event in April. The team of SIU researchers, led by co-principal investigators Bob Baer and Matt Penn, will use a two-year,

Traditionally Ignored Phenomenon Reveals Potential for Breakthroughs in Biotechnology

Over the last decade, advances in 3D printing have unlocked new possibilities for bioengineers to build heart tissues and structures.

The behavior of water molecules in proton-conducting materials is critical for understanding and exploiting their features.

Researchers from the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) report the development of a new hydrogel ink infused with gelatin fibers that enables 3D printing of a functional heart ventricle that mimics beating like a human heart. They discovered the fiber-infused gel (FIG) ink allows heart muscle cells printed in the shape of a ventricle to align and beat in coordination like a human heart chamber.

Star-gazers are invited to join Southern Illinois University Carbondale, the Astronomical Association of Southern Illinois and the Adler Planetarium of Chicago for a free night of guided telescope observations, accompanied by family-friendly astronomy and science activities.

The Southern Illinois Star Party 2023 is set for Saturday, Aug. 5, from 7 p.m. to midnight at University Farms Astronomy Observation Area.

Researchers from Osaka University use quasi-elastic neutron scattering to get a close look at the behavior of water molecules in a semiclathrate hydra....
