Since day one at MIT, senior Yiping Xing has been interested in exploring medicine from different perspectives. Already, the biology major has co-authored two scientific papers, including a Nature Nanotechnology paper on siRNA delivery research; co-led a project in Ghana to convert organic waste into animal feed; and participated in national health policy through an internship in the U.S. Surgeon General’s office.
Carnival Cruise Lines implementing Nano-Clear® Coatings to restore their entire fleet of lifeboats.
Researchers at Imperial College London and the Laboratoire de chimie de la matière condensée de Paris (CNRS/Collège de France/UPMC) have designed and developed hybrid gold-silica nanoparticles, which are turning out to be genuine therapeutic “Swiss Army knives”.
Hydrogels are materials that are commonly used in everyday objects such as contact lenses or diapers, in order to control humidity.
A novel approach to growing nanowires promises a new means of control over their light-emitting and electronic properties. In a recent issue of Nano Letters, scientists from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Lab (Berkeley Lab) demonstrated a new growth technique that uses specially engineered catalysts.
Anyone who has ever toasted the top of their legs with their laptop or broiled their ear on a cell phone knows that microelectronic devices can give off a lot of heat. These devices contain a multitude of transistors, and although each one produces very little heat individually, their combined thermal output is significant and can damage the device.
Today, Hanergy Thin Film Power Group Ltd. held a mobile energy strategy presentation and the launch ceremony of its global thin-film solar product innovation competition. Mobile energy, as envisioned by Hanergy, is a novel concept and strategic judgment based on the global energy development trend.
Supporting Governor Andrew Cuomo’s high-tech educational paradigm for New York’s students, 300 middle and high school students visited SUNY Polytechnic Institute’s Colleges of Nanoscale Science and Engineering (SUNY Poly CNSE) on Thursday, February 5, to take part in an exciting “NanoCareer Day” program.
Light and matter can be so strongly linked that their characteristics become indistinguishable. These light-matter couplings are referred to as polaritons. Their energy oscillates continuously between both systems, giving rise to attractive new physical phenomena.
The joint research group led by Takuzo Aida, director, Emergent Soft Matter Function Research Group, Center for Emergent Matter Science, RIKEN (also a professor at the School of Engineering, University of Tokyo), Yasuhiro Ishida, leader, Emergent Bioinspired Soft Matter Research Team, RIKEN, and Takayoshi Sasaki, fellow, International Center for Materials Nanoarchitectonics, NIMS, successfully developed a material that expresses a unique mechanical property by arranging oxide nanosheets, that electrostatically repel each other, in the direction perpendicular to a magnetic field, and by confining a three-dimensional nano-network structure in a water-swollen gel material, hydrogel.
