IBM, Swiss Hospital Partner to Test New Microfluidic Probe for Cancer Diagnosis

IBM scientists are collabo-rating with pathologists at the University Hospital Zürich to test a new proto-type tool to accurately diagnose different types of cancer. This work is based on a technology developed by IBM scientists called a microfluidic probe, which slightly resembles the nib of a fountain pen.

Researchers Report Surfaces with Differently Shaped Nanoscale Textures as Highly Water Repellent

When it comes to designing extremely water-repellent surfaces, shape and size matter. That's the finding of a group of scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory, who investigated the effects of differently shaped, nanoscale textures on a material's ability to force water droplets to roll off without wetting its surface.

Green Fluorescent Protein Biosensors Used to Detect Temperature Fluctuations in Cells

Warm blooded animals constantly regulate their body temperatures in order to maintain an important survival balance, known as thermal homeostasis. Given its significance, scientists have tried various ways to measure heat produced from metabolic processes in our cells. Unfortunately, current approaches have fallen short in providing researchers with a precise snapshot of how and where this heat is produced.
