Biologging—an innovative, non-invasive method of tracking animals in the wild—is transforming how scientists study movement, behavior and social interactions. Using compact electronic devices that can remain attached ...
New research into the anatomy of blue sharks (Prionace glauca) reveals a unique nanostructure in their skin that produces their iconic blue coloration, but intriguingly, also suggests a potential capacity for color change.
If you have ever looked closely into a rockpool along the U.K. coastline, you may have been lucky enough to find a tiny hermit crab scuttling about. What you might not realize is that hermit crabs are constantly monitoring ...
Researchers from the Illinois Grainger College of Engineering are the first to demonstrate a simple and tunable method for realizing asymmetric couplings in integrated photonics. Their findings, published in Â鶹ÒùÔºical Review ...
Experiments lead to a greater understanding, deeper insights, and sometimes they even bear fruit. That was certainly the case last summer at the U.S. Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), where ...
Researchers at Boise State University have developed a novel, environmentally friendly triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) that is fully printed and capable of harvesting biomechanical and environmental energy while also functioning ...
When you think of dinosaurs, you might imagine towering predators or gentle giants roaming prehistoric landscapes. But what if these ancient creatures could teach us about one of humanity's most persistent challenges: cancer?
A team led by Prof. Shlomo Magdassi from the Institute of Chemistry and Prof. Hanna Dodiuk from Shenkar College has recently developed a new adhesive that addresses one of the major challenges in materials science: developing ...
Recent advances in electronics and optics have opened new possibilities for terahertz (THz) waves—an invisible type of light that falls between infrared light and microwaves on the spectrum. The use of THz scattering for ...
A protein that gives fleas their bounce has been used to boot out bacteria cells, with lab results demonstrating the material's potential for preventing medical implant infection.
