Applying nanotechniques developed in the U.S. space program may help to better understand the electrochemical dynamics of deep brain stimulation in order to fine-tune the therapy, according to a presentation by NASA Ames Research Center scientist Russell J. Andrews, M.D., at the International Neuromodulation Society’s 12th World Congress.
Physicists at the University of Washington have conducted the most precise and controlled measurements yet of the interaction between the atoms and molecules that comprise air and the type of carbon surface used in battery electrodes and air filters — key information for improving those technologies.
OCSiAl, a producer of single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNT), is broadening the scope of its groundbreaking iNanoComm program, which provides matching grants to support research projects using carbon nanomaterials, to include university spinoffs.
Researchers at the Department of Physics and the Swiss Nanoscience Institute at the University of Basel, along with colleagues from ETH Zurich, have developed an efficient method to transmit signals from nanocomponents. In an innovative layout, they connected a nanocomponent to two electrical conductors. This made the electrical signal to uncouple in a very efficient manner.
Pharmaco-Kinesis Corporation (PKC) announced today the filing of a US patent application entitled "Carbon Nanotube BioFET with a Local Amplifier in a System Array for Analysis of Biomarkers and Method of Analysis of Same."
Wearable E-skin that can measure heart rate and blood pressure, and paper diagnostic machines the size of a credit card that can give instant readings on blood and saliva samples are two new bio-sensing technologies presented at Elsevier's 4th International Conference on Bio-Sensing Technology in Lisbon, Portugal on 12 May 2015.
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) professor Nikhil Koratkar has been honored by the American Society of Mechanical Engineering (ASME) and Pi Tau Sigma for his pioneering work in the synthesis, characterization, and applications of one-dimensional and two-dimensional nanomaterials.
N12 Technologies, Inc., a Cambridge -based startup that’s commercializing revolutionary nanotechnology to enhance composite materials has been selected 2015 TiE50 Top Start-up. The recognition was announced on Saturday, May 4th by the TiE50 organization. Selection for this recognition is keenly contested by thousands of technology startups worldwide and represents the best of the breed startups screened from more than 2,700 companies.
Plant-based cellulose nanofibres do not pose a short-term health risk, especially short fibres, shows a study conducted in the context of National Research Programme "Opportunities and Risks of Nanomaterials" (NRP 64). But lung cells are less efficient in eliminating longer fibres.
Cnano Technology Limited, a world-leader in the manufacturing and commercialization of high quality multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) products for the energy storage, structural and electronics industries, announced the completion of its $15 million Series C funding.
