    Magnets Can Control Heat and Sound

    In the world of physicists, heat and sound are considered very similar, since both are structured from and transported by the vibration of atoms. Now, tor the first time, these types of energy have also both been shown to have magnetic properties.

    With New Nonstick Coating, the Wait, and Waste, Is Over

    If a glue did not stick to the inside of the tube or bottle, you might think it must not be a very good glue. On the other hand, clinging glue has annoyed generations of parents and children attempting to scoop out the remaining bits with their fingers. This is one of life’s little problems.…

    Heat-beating beans resist climate change

    Beans are a staple for hundreds of millions of people, mostly in Latin America and Africa. But these legumes, which originated in cool highlands, are particularly sensitive to excessive warmth—so much so that by 2050, climate change might cut in half the amount of land suitable for growing them. Plant breeders with the International Center…

    Extreme cryptography paves way to personalized medicine

    The dream for tomorrow’s medicine is to understand the links between DNA and disease — and to tailor therapies accordingly. But scientists working to realize such ‘personalized’ or ‘precision’ medicine have a problem: how to keep genetic data and medical records secure while still enabling the massive, cloud-based analyses needed to make meaningful associations. Now,…

    Lo que vieron en el cielo en 1670 no era una nova, ¡era una colisión de estrellas!

    Durante siglos, este objeto estelar bajo la constelación del Cisne ha sido un misterio para los astrónomos. Un nuevo análisis resuelve el enigma y arroja una sorpresa: pese a estar considerada la primera nova documentada en la historia, su naturaleza era bien distinta.

    Custom Organs, Printed to Order

    Currently, tissue engineering can provide simple, thin tissues including cartilage, skin, and bone. Larger, more complex organs like the liver and heart present much more formidable challenges. They are structurally intricate, contain many different cell types, and require an extensive network of blood vessels. The fact remains that today, if someone needs a complex organ, a…
