Researchers from Columbia University and Delft University of Technology have created ultra-compact implantable motes that can report on localized temperature within the human body and which are powered entirely from ultrasonic signals â all on a single, tiny chip. We wanted to see how far we could push the limits on how small a functioning chip we could make, Professor Ken Shepard explains of the study he led. This is a new idea of chip as system â this is a chip that alone, with nothing else, is a complete functioning electronic system. This should be revolutionary for developing wireless, miniaturized implantable medical devices that can sense different things, be used in clinical applications, and eventually approved for human use.

Currently, rovers that are exploring the surface of Mars are often powered by solar energy. Some rely on other sources of energy, but solar is common. The
A National Science Foundation grant to The Water Institute of the Gulf and the University of New Orleans will support more than 50 U.S. and European graduate students for their attendance at a two-week intensive modeling and water management training in the Netherlands.
The National Science Foundation awarded $399,718 to a partnership between University of New Orleans and the Water Institute to lead 13 U.S. graduate students each year over three years in an intensive modeling, fieldwork and flume laboratory water management training. Up to 14 European graduate students will also be selected for the program each year to encourage and deepen international conversations around water management. Other partners in the program include Deltares, Delft University of Technology and Utrecht University.
