Under the guidance of Penn State, a research group has put pencil to paper to create an accessible, low-cost, waterproof, and wearable sensor to track multiple vital signals.

According to a new study performed, artificial intelligence-powered writing assistants that autocomplete sentences or provide “smart replies” not just put words into people’s mouths, they also put concepts into their heads.

An international research team has created a novel surface coating technology that can greatly boost electron emission in materials.

Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) was brought into the ICU, in Hangzhou, on multiple occasions as patients were admitted, creating a large 'reservoir' of the bacteria which contaminated beds and equipment.

According to the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign investigators, newly developed “smart” coatings for surgical orthopedic implants can detect strain on the devices to provide early warning of implant failures while destroying infection-causing bacteria.

The plastic in used coffee pods can be recycled to generate filament for 3D printers, reducing their environmental impact, according to an article published in the journal ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering.

Scientists amaze inside a lab at a unique state that occurs when atoms are cooled to near absolute zero. Trees outside their window absorb sunlight and convert it into new leaves.

Making use of ultrasound to analyze the biomechanical properties of tissues could assist in detecting and controlling pathophysiological conditions and tracking the progress of lesions and assessing the advancement of rehabilitation.

The explosion of two-dimensional layered materials (2DLMs) with diverse characteristics forms the foundation for van der Waals heterostructures (vdWHs). The vdWHs coupled with different stacking alignments of 2DLMs demonstrate a wide range of interesting functions in fields such as optoelectronics, electronics, sensing, thermoelectrics, and energy conversion and storage.

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are a prospective candidate for next-generation photovoltaic technology with high efficiency and cheap production cost, with the potential to revolutionize the renewable energy sector.
