Scientists at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory of the Department of Energy have expanded the functionalities of the lab’s Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) X-Ray free-electron laser (XFEL).
Researchers at the University of California, Irvine have developed a novel self-powered, wristwatch-style health monitor that can wirelessly interact with a nearby smartphone or tablet and measure a wearer’s pulse without the need of a battery or an additional power source.
Cancer immunotherapy aims to change “cold” tumors into “hot” tumors – those that react to immunotherapy – by stimulating and enlisting the immune system of the body.
Preclinical Trials Demonstrate the Efficacy of Nanoparticle-Based Vaccine Written by AZoNanoMay 25 2021 Preclinical studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of an experimental flu vaccine that contains scores of microscopic spherical sacs carrying infection-fighting proteins all through the body. The circle-shaped objects in the image above are cobalt-porphyrin-phospholipid (CoPoP) nanoparticles decorated with flu proteins. Image Credit: University at Buffalo. As explained in a study recently published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences on May 24 th, 2021, the experime...
New Crush-Resistant Metamaterials can Prevent Failure of Structures Written by AZoMMar 12 2021 A chain reaction of locally restricted damage can inevitably lead to a catastrophic breakdown of structures and materials. Such a failure can be seen in many structures, from metal space trusses that collapse after the warping of a solo strut to solid ceramics that breakdown after the development of a tiny crack. Novel tensegrity metamaterials by UCI and Georgia Institute of Technology researchers employ isolated compressive loop elements that are exclusively connected through a continuous network o...
