A significant part of the population in developing countries suffer from a chronic lung illness, most often asthma or cystic fibrosis. Convenient health care may be hard to come by in these parts of the world, but most people there do have access to a phone of some description, which is now on enough to reliably measure lung function…
Memory manipulation is an attractive concept that has only a very short history of successful experiments, but we are certainly making progress in decoding what exactly makes our brains tick. In the most recent news, scientists at Stony Brook University have identified and successfully meddled with the process responsible for…
But why is it different this time? The company founded by tech billionaire,
European Alliance for Innovation (EAI) in cooperation with Create-Net, INAOE, ITESM, Intel, and
Research in medical science often comes to certain ethical barriers. Especially today, when
We are at a brink of a new era of computing. The world
Nanomachines have long been the dream of many scientists and science-fiction fans alike. However, with the latest research into nano-scale engines from the University Cambridge, we may finally be on the cusp of real life, fully functional nano-bots that appear to be extraordinarily efficient and scalable…
Chances are that you have seen last month’s ridiculously impressive footage from the first test of a personal hoverboard developed by Frank Zapata (watch below), which can allegedly fly for as much as 10,000 feet (just over 3 km), achieve top speed of 150 km/h, and 10 minutes of continuous flight. ..
It wouldn’t be an overstatement to say that development of autonomous vehicles is all the rage. Rand Corporation has recently reported that it is nigh impossible to reliably prove the complete safety of safe-driving cars just by test drives, given the huge number of test-driven miles necessary for statistically viable results…
Vast amount of power of course goes to industry. Especially in material-processing industry, implementing theoretical (but achievable) technologies, would change a lot. David S. Sholl and Ryan P. Lively, professors at Georgia Institute of technology propose seven chemical separation processes, which would dramatically lower the amount of energy used in industry.
