Diagnostic Imaging |
|
Nanoparticles are being developed for diagnostic imaging, for the early detection of neurological disease, cardiovascular disease and cancer. The technology is based upon contrast nanoparticles which can be metallic, magnetic or polymeric in nature. These particles can be functionalised with a biological targeting agent such as an antibody and are generally between 10 and 100 nm in diameter.

IBM Creating Supercomputers on Single Chips Using Light Instead of Electricity |
|
IBM researchers are using light in computer chips instead of electricity and wires to send information between the chip cores. The result are computer chips as much as 100 times faster, using 10 times less power than wires, potentially allowing hundreds of cores to be connected together on a single chip, transforming today's large supercomputers into tomorrow's tiny chips while consuming significantly less power.
