A new research center based at the University of Glasgow is setting out to develop the ‘cognitive’ cities of the future which will revolutionize urban life. The Centre for Integrated Sensing and Communication Enabling Cognitive…
Simple technique ushers in a long-sought class of…
Osaka, Japan – Researchers from Osaka University and collaborating partners have synthesized a novel class of nanostructured superlattices. This study enables an unusually high degree of control over the movement of electrons within metal semiconductors,…
Scientists use existing sequencing technology to better-distinguish RNA
Kyoto University scientists are getting closer to finding ways to identify changes to RNA sequences that impact protein formation and can cause diseases. Their approach, published in the journal Genomics, utilizes probability algorithms together with an…
Color signals alert you to dangerous germs
Scientists have developed a simple, rapid method to simultaneously identify multiple food poisoning bacteria, based on color differences in the scattered light by nanometer-scaled organic metal nanohybrid structures (NHs) that bind via antibodies to those…
Tendon tissue plus parathyroid hormone reproduce a normal…
The researchers have discovered an extra step that changes transplanted tendon tissue to make it similar to the original meniscus, providing better knee cartilage protection. They found that parathyroid hormone, a drug used to treat…
