“In a move that echoes a sci-fi series, researchers have developed a super-small material that was able to not only stimulate nerves in rodents, but reconnect them as well. The finding could lead to injectable particles that take the place […]
Researchers linked silicon solar cells with perovskite solar cells in tandem. “The results, reported in Joule, illustrate that the connection protects the frail perovskite solar cell from voltage-induced breakdown while attaining greater efficiencies than either cell can achieve on their […]
With “gold bipolar nanoelectrodes, termed bio-nanoantennae” plus a bit of electrical stimulation, the cancer cells self-destructed while leaving neighboring healthy cells unharmed. ~ learn more
Consider this your friendly reminder that we mostly still have no idea how biology works. “Scientists are learning ever more about how vesicles move in and out of cells and across the complex terrain between them, as well as about […]
“Let me tell you the story of this still of stephen colbert wearing meat goggles, my buddy Frank, and how I learned to distrust science journalism” ~ learn more
A randomized clinical trial of 104 adults, including a placebo group (I wonder if those people quickly figured out which group they were in?). In any case, the results of the psilocybin group look strong. “The primary outcome was change […]
Outstanding result! “A new type of vaccine developed by researchers at the University of Chicago’s Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (PME) has shown in the lab setting that it can completely reverse autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis and type 1 […]
“In a remarkable convergence, scientists have discovered that the same blood factor is responsible for the cognitive enhancement that results from young blood transfusion, the longevity hormone klotho, and exercise.” These three “can somehow tell your brain, “Hey, improve your […]
“We engineered E. coli bacteria, the most widely studied microbe, to generate electricity,” says Professor Ardemis Boghossian at EPFL. ~ learn more
