Lab-on-a-Chip Device from Berkeley Lab to Speed Proteomics Research
In recent years, the science of biology has been dominated by genomics - the study of genes and their functions. The genomics era is now making way for the era of proteomics - the study of the proteins that genes encode. view more (2007-05-03)
Probing biology's dark matter
A typical human mouth teems with as many as 700 different species of microbes. A handful of these have been specifically implicated in promoting gum disease, dental cavities, and bad breath, but for the most part, the make-up of this complex ecosystem and its impact on human health remain largely unexplored. view more (2007-07-20)
LEGO toy helps researchers learn what happens on nanoscale
Johns Hopkins engineers are using a popular children's toy to visualize the behavior of particles, cells and molecules in environments too small to see with the naked eye. view more (2009-08-26)
New Technology Opens Up PC World To Disabled
Researchers at the University of Ulster have developed new technology that could revolutionize the quality of life for the disabled. The Look Device allows individuals with severe physical impairments to control the operation of a computer cursor solely with the movement of their eyes. A set of customised spectacles, with built in sensors,... view more... (2002-11-12)
Patients and doctors lack knowledge about adrenaline injections
Patients and general practitioners lack knowledge of how and when to use devices to inject adrenaline after anaphylaxis (severe allergic reactions), finds a study in this week's BMJ. view more (2003-12-03)
Thumb-size microsystem enables cell culture and incubation
Integrating silicon microchip technology with a network of tiny fluid channels, some thinner than a human hair, researchers at The Johns Hopkins University have developed a thumb-size micro-incubator to culture living cells for lab tests. view more (2007-10-03)
The battery-powered Sherpa
Game show candidates might succeed in carrying a washing machine up several flights of stairs in record time - but for normal mortals this represents an enormous feat of strength and patience. People are well advised not to attempt it alone and spare themselves potential back problems - unless of course aided by a transport device. Until now, such... view more... (2001-08-21)
New Technology Reduces Earthquake Damage To Buildings
Imperial College Innovations looks to commercialise new device for improving the structural stability of buildings A novel device that may help to save lives by improving the stability of buildings and preventing structural damage during traumatic events such as earthquakes, has been developed and patented by Imperial College Innovations Limited.... view more...

Device controls electron spin at room temperature
In a breakthrough for applied physics, North Carolina State University researchers have developed a magnetic semiconductor memory device, using GaMnN thin films, which utilizes both the charge and spin of electrons at room temperature. view more (2009-04-07)
Improved Spin Transistor from Oxford University
Researchers at Oxford University’s Physics Department have developed an improved version of the “spin transistor,” a device which has the principle operating characteristics of a conventional transistor but with the added benefit of a current output dependent on the strength of the external magnetic field. This exciting new... view more... (2002-08-15)
NYU chemists create 'nanorobotic' arm to operate within DNA sequence
New York University chemistry professor Nadrian C. Seeman and his graduate student Baoquan Ding have developed a DNA cassette through which a nanomechanical device can be inserted and function within a DNA array, allowing for the motion of a nanorobotic arm. view more (2006-12-08)
Sandia researchers take new approach to studying how cells respond to pathogens
A Sandia National Laboratories research team led by Anup Singh is taking a new approach to studying how immune cells respond to pathogens in the first few minutes and hours of exposure. view more (2007-04-04)
MIT particles pave way for new bedside diagnostics
MIT researchers have created an inexpensive method to screen for millions of different biomolecules (DNA, proteins, etc.) in a single sample-a technology that could make possible the development of low-cost clinical bedside diagnostics. view more (2007-03-09)
Caltech bioengineers develop 'microscope on a chip'
Researchers at the California Institute of Technology have turned science fiction into reality with their development of a super-compact high-resolution microscope, small enough to fit on a finger tip. view more (2008-07-29)
Technology May Cool The Laptop
Does your laptop sometimes get so hot that it can almost be used to fry eggs? view more (2009-10-30)
OptiNose presents data on highly effective migraine treatment
OptiNose announced today that it presented important new data demonstrating the superior performance of its novel nasal drug delivery device with sumatriptan for the treatment of migraines. view more (2008-06-30)
Making thick Ketchup
Specialists of the Moscow company "IZOBRETATEL" ("Inventor") have designed and patented a new device - the consistence express analyzer. The designers do not assert that their device will cause a revolution in science. They do not even state that they have developed a device for scientific research. However, this simple device... view more... (2003-07-18)
Silicon nanowires upgrade data-storage technology
Scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), along with colleagues at George Mason University and Kwangwoon University in Korea, have fabricated a memory device that combines silicon nanowires with a more traditional type of data-storage. view more (2007-06-11)
Magnetic computer sensors may help study biomolecules
Magnetic switches like those in computers also might be used to manipulate individual strands of DNA for high-speed applications such as gene sequencing, experiments at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) suggest. view more (2007-05-11)
Computer vision for the blind
The white cane used by the blind as a travel aid may be universal, but it is not always adequate when it comes to pedestrian crossings. Although some crossings make a sound when it is safe to cross, many do not, and it is at these crossings that the blind need to know when the green man is showing. Adaptations of the white cane have been made,... view more... (2002-08-15)
