Researchers make new electronics -- with a twist
They've made electronics that can bend. They've made electronics that can stretch. And now, they've reached the ultimate goal -- electronics that can be subjected to any complex deformation, including twisting. view more (2008-11-20)
Laser treatment
Researchers in Russia have used laser treatment to cure male sexual dysfunction. The Institute of Physics magazine - Opto & Laser Europe - reports this week that after treatment with a device developed by Ekaterina Koultchavenia of the Novosibirsk Research Institute, all 24 male patients in the trial re-gained the ability to have spontaneous... view more...

‘Labour onset’ device signals the end of false alarms
Scientists at Leeds University researching the relationship between electrical signals in the womb and the onset of labour have received funding to turn the idea of a labour prediction device into reality. Dr Nigel Simpson and Professor James Walker from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at the University’s Medical School, believe... view more... (2000-11-07)
MRI machines may damage cochlear implants
Patients with cochlear implants may want to steer clear of certain magnetic imaging devices, such as 3T MRI machines, because the machines can demagnetize the patient's implant, according to new research published in the December 2008 issue of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery. view more (2008-12-01)
Cranfield Collaborator Receives Multi Million Dollar Financing
Cranfield University has been at the forefront of diabetes diagnostics for over twenty years and created the current generation of home blood glucose testing devices used throughout the world. More recently, the University has been working with Pelikan Technologies in Palo Alto, USA to develop the ultimate painless and convenient system and... view more... (2004-11-05)
MIT: Novel needle could cut medical complications
Each year, hundreds of thousands of people suffer medical complications from hypodermic needles that penetrate too far under their skin. view more (2009-04-03)
Advances in nebulised drug delivery
AROUND £50 million of National Health Service money a year is spent nebulising drug aerosols to patients with asthma, cystic fibrosis and infections. Drug delivery by this route currently escapes attention from the regulatory authorities because the drug is sold separately from the delivery device and clinical practice is based largely on... view more...

Quatratran - Helping to make The World a safer place
Since the development of superconducting electronic devices there has been a need to develop a three terminal transistor like device sensitive enough to measure small voltage and current signals typical of those associated with single electron and photon events. A group of researchers in the Department of Particle & Nuclear Physics at Oxford... view more... (2004-02-19)
Research underway to give sleep apnea sufferers relief and rest
For some, a full night's rest can be anything but restful. That's because they have sleep apnea, which causes them to struggle for breath in bouts throughout the night. Six percent of the population is affected by the condition-but many don't even know they have it. view more (2008-09-29)
Simple device which uses electrical field could boost gas efficiency
With the high cost of gasoline and diesel fuel impacting costs for automobiles, trucks, buses and the overall economy, a Temple University physics professor has developed a simple device which could dramatically improve fuel efficiency as much as 20 percent. view more (2008-09-26)
World's fastest transistor approaches goal of terahertz device
Scientists at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have again broken their own speed record for the world's fastest transistor. With a frequency of 845 gigahertz, their latest device is approximately 300 gigahertz faster than transistors built by other research groups, and approaches the goal of a terahertz device. view more (2006-12-12)
Law enforcement officers may not always use gun locks themselves, despite promoting their use
Despite promoting the use of gun locks to the general public, to encourage gun safety, US law enforcement officers from one agency don't seem to like using the devices themselves, reports research in Injury Prevention. Unintentional injury and death from firearms is a major public health problem in the US, with the death rate attributable to this... view more... (2001-08-29)
MSU engineering team designs innovative medical device
MSU engineering team designs innovative medical device A Michigan State University engineering design team has developed a medical diagnosis system that would allow people to be inexpensively screened for a variety of medical problems. view more (2007-08-24)
LIGHTNING PROTECTION ... JAMES BOND-SYLE
A leading expert from Staffordshire University is helping to produce a James Bond-style device which will protect people and buildings from lightning strikes - using a laser beam and a mirror. view more (1999-12-16)
'Air shower' set to cut water use by 30 per cent
As Australians become increasingly alert to the importance of using water wisely in the home, CSIRO researchers have found a way to use a third less water when you shower - by adding air. view more (2006-11-10)
Team finds a better way to watch bacteria swim
Researchers have developed a new method for studying bacterial swimming, one that allows them to trap Escherichia coli bacteria and modify the microbes' environment without hindering the way they move. view more (2009-10-05)
Novel laboratory model reveals clues to how blood starts clotting
Researchers at the University of Chicago have crafted a simple model for predicting when and where hemostasis - the technical term for blood clotting - will occur. view more (2006-10-27)
OptiNose presents new data on highly effective treatment for chronic rhinosinusitis
OptiNose today announced important new results from a Phase II trial of its novel nasal drug delivery device with fluticasone for the treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis. view more (2009-04-20)
Electrochromic artificial nails
The researcher Carlos Gonzalez from the Department of New Materials at CIDETEC (Basque Country) has developed an element called electrochromic false nail. This cosmetic accessory item will be able to be used as an artificial nail to cover the natural one. Its novelty lies in the fact that, once the false nail is inserted into position, it can... view more... (2003-11-04)
Cochlear implant recipients experience improvement in quality of life
Cochlear implant recipients experience a significant improvement in their quality of life, and have improved speech recognition, according to new research published in the March 2008 issue of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery. view more (2008-03-05)
