Cells, the fundamental building blocks of life, are constantly subjected to a variety of mechanical forces within our bodies. These forces, which can arise from both internal and external sources, play crucial roles in regulating ...

Imagine a future where indoor wireless communication systems handle skyrocketing data demands and do so with unmatched reliability and speed. Traditional radio frequency (RF) technologies like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are beginning ...

Famous for its iconic wildlife, Africa is home to nature and cultures that can be found nowhere else on Earth. Unfortunately, however, this precious natural and cultural heritage is threatened by unprecedented population ...

Scientists are finding ways to use quantum effects to create groundbreaking thermal devices that can help cool electronic systems. The quantum thermal transistor is one of the most exciting innovations in this field. While ...

The oral cavity is home to a rich ecosystem of microorganisms that are found in both healthy and diseased states. In the area of dental restoration, highly specialized materials are used to fulfill specific functions so that ...

As computing technology advances, we have shifted from using large, single-chip processors to systems made up of smaller, specialized chips called "chiplets." These chiplets work together to boost processing power and efficiency.

A Doppler shift is defined as a change of frequency of light or sound when an object is moving toward or away from an observer. Edwin Hubble observed in 1929 that galaxies appear on average to be moving away from us (see ...

What if you could hide an image in plain sight—so well that even the most advanced cameras couldn't detect it? Imagine encoding visual information using the properties of quantum optics, rendering it invisible to normal ...

Imagine standing on the edge of a new frontier, where waste—something we often view as a problem—becomes the solution. We live in a world that needs innovation, where environmental challenges demand a sustainable approach, ...

Skin-secreted adhesives, or glues, are highly effective defense adaptations that have evolved recurrently in a small number of amphibians. From an ecological standpoint, this rapidly solidifying material—essentially, a ...

The universe might not be as you think. Until recently, the Lambda Cold Dark Matter model seemed to have a lock on cosmology. Like earlier Big Bang models, it supposes that the universe expanded from a hyperdense state and ...

In a significant advance for climate change mitigation efforts, we have developed a new material that could revolutionize carbon dioxide capture. Our study, published in Advanced Materials, introduces porous polymeric electrodes ...
