Surgeons will soon have a powerful new tool for planning and practice with the creation of the first full-sized 3D bioprinted model of the human heart. • Email to a friend • An international team of scientists has defied nature to make diamonds in minutes in a laboratory at room temperature - a process that normally requires billions of years, huge amounts of pressure and super-hot temperatures. • Email to a friend • Findings could inform design of environmental technologies behind water purification processes and electric energy storage. • Email to a friend • Researchers have designed DNA-based nanogels that only break down and release their chemotherapeutic contents within cancer cells, minimizing the impacts on normal ones and potentially eliminating painful and uncomfortable side effects. • Email to a friend • Researchers have developed a new coating material for semiconductors that may create new opportunities to produce fuels in processes that combine direct sunlight with electricity. • Email to a friend • Scientists have created the largest defect-free membranes reported to date that fully exploit the unique mass transport properties of carbon nanotubes as flow channels. • Email to a friend • The quantum dynamics of hydrogen is central to many problems in nature, being strongly influenced by the environment in which it takes place. Scientists address hydrogen transfer within a supported molecular switch, showing that the surface support can play a decisive role in the tunneling reaction. • Email to a friend • Scientists develop an energy-efficient strategy to reversibly change spin orientation or magnetization direction in magnetite at room temperature. • Email to a friend • Prototype tech shrinks AI to deliver brain-like functionality in one powerful device. • Email to a friend • Researchers report a combination of alkyne tags and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) microscopy for following the dynamics of small-molecule drugs in cells. • Email to a friend • |
