Today, new technologies build on a broad spectrum of scientific findings. Fundamental discoveries in one discipline can lead to crucial advances in completely different areas tomorrow. In all probability, this tendency will only intensify in the future. Or, to put it another way, after centuries of diversification, the life sciences, natural sciences and engineering disciplines are converging once again. This is the cusp on which the sciences are poised today – and, now and then, also caught in ...

How well a person interacts with others is strongly influenced by his or her socio-emotional competencies, such as an ability to recognize facial expressions of emotion. Such competencies vary significantly between individuals and can be severely impaired by disorders, such as autism, dementia, anorexia, and schizophrenia, as well as by language disorders and traumatic brain injuries. In these cases, individuals often suffer from severe socio-emotional dysfunction that hinders their success in e...

Using data from a standard CT scan, the non-invasive HeartFlow Analysis creates a personalized 3D model of the coronary arteries and analyzes the impact that blockages have on blood flow. Today’s non-invasive diagnostic tests provide little explanation of chest pain, leading many patients to unnecessary invasive testing. In fact, more than half of patients who undergo these invasive tests have no significant blockage. Enables clinicians to identify significant coronary artery disease and dete...

Researchers have revealed new atomic-scale details about pesky deposits that can stop or slow chemical reactions vital to fuel production and other processes. This disruption to reactions is known as deactivation or poisoning. The research team employed a combination of measurements, including X-ray experiments at the Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab), to gather the most detailed information yet on problematic carbon-based deposits called “coke,” and ...

Light sheet microscopy is a novel microscopy technique developed in the last ten years that is uniquely suited to image large living organisms. In a light-sheet microscope, a laser light sheet illuminates the sample perpendicularly to the observation along a thin plane within the sample. Out-of-focus and scattered light from other planes - which often impair image quality - is largely avoided because only the observed plane is illuminated. Researchers develop a combination of software and hardw...

In the first results to emerge from HIV patient trials of a new generation of so-called broadly neutralizing antibodies, Rockefeller University researchers have found the experimental therapy can dramatically reduce the amount of virus present in a patient’s blood. The work, reported this week in Nature, brings fresh optimism to the field of HIV immunotherapy and suggests new strategies for fighting or even preventing HIV infection. In a person infected with HIV, there is an ongoing arms race...

Scientists in the Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine have a huge responsibility on their shoulders: Diseases of the lungs represent some of the most common — and fatal — medical conditions in the world. Indeed, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the third leading cause of death in the United States, and asthma affects more than 7 percent of adults and nearly 9 percent of children in the country. “The nearly 40 faculty in our division are tackling these problems head...

Boeing X-48 is an experimental unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) for investigation into the characteristics of blended wing body (BWB) aircraft, a type of flying wing. Boeing designed the X-48 and two examples were built by Cranfield Aerospace in the UK. Boeing began flight testing the X-48B version for NASA in 2007. The X-48B was later modified into the X-48C version. Boeing X-48 is a small experimental aircraft developed by the University of Cranfield, Boeing and NASA to test the Blended Wing B...

Researchers at the University of Tokyo have demonstrated that production of a specific type of insulin receptor is required for gustatory memory during starvation in worms. The finding provides evidence that learning ability is influenced by functional diversity of a single gene in a single neuron. C. elegans, a tiny roundworm that lives in soil, can remember concentrations of salts (NaCl etc.) to which it has been exposed during feeding or food deprivation and learn to approach or avoid thos...

Team of engineers and physicians have made a surprising discovery that offers a target for designing new materials for hip implants that are less susceptible to the joint’s normal wear and tear. Researchers from Northwestern University, Rush University Medical Center, Chicago, and the University of Duisburg-Essen Germany found that graphitic carbon is a key element in a lubricating layer that forms on metal-on-metal hip implants. The lubricant is more similar to the lubrication of a combustio...

Google Wifi is a new type of home Wi-Fi system that replaces your router for seamless coverage throughout your home. Traditional routers weren’t designed for all the different ways we use Wi-Fi today. Walls and distance make it difficult for a single router to send a strong signal to every room in your home, resulting in slow Wi-Fi and dead zones. With Google Wifi, you can place multiple ‘Wifi points’ in different rooms for fast Wi-Fi in every corner of your home. We recommend putting them...
