A new application for students offered through First Year Directions classes at the University of Miami gives them a chance to experience unique campus activities virtually.
For many people, constant pings, buzzes and flashes on their phones, computers and other devices are just a normal part of working life—which, thanks to technology, extends to all hours.
Using games to teach complex concepts
The article provides an overview of Elam’s career and achievements on the occasion of his having been named as a Fellow of the Electrochemical Society.
The test represented the culmination of nearly three years of collaboration between Jefferson Lab and ESnet to develop a novel networking hardware prototype that can connect scientific instruments to computing clusters over a wide-area network such as ESnet’s in real time.
Over the summer, crews began the Alpine storage system, shredding over 40,000 hard drives with the help of ShredPro Secure, a local East Tennessee business. This partnership not only reduced costs and sped up the process but also established a more efficient and secure method for decommissioning large-scale computing systems in the future.
For older adults undergoing hemiarthroplasty for hip fracture, intraoperative use of liposomal bupivacaine does not improve pain scores or other relevant outcomes, compared to conventional bupivacaine, reports a study in The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery. The journal is published in the Lippincott portfolio by Wolters Kluwer.
Case Western Reserve University and the Louis Stokes Cleveland VA Medical Center have been awarded a $1.14M grant from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs to use artificial intelligence (AI) to determine the best personalized treatment for Veterans with rectal cancer.
For the first time, scientists are able to directly compare the different kinds of injury that mechanical ventilation causes to cells in the lungs.
The ETH spin-off Synhelion has recently inaugurated the world's first industrial plant for the production of solar fuels in Germany. The heart of the plant contains a piece of Empa technology: Together with Synhelion, Empa researchers have developed a material for the high-temperature thermal energy storage system that allows the plant to remain in operation 24/7.
Scientists have developed a groundbreaking two-line system that uses CRISPR/Cas9 (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeat) technology to control pollination in rapeseed by targeting the Oxophytodienoic acid reductase 3 (OPR3) gene. This innovation offers a more stable and efficient approach to hybrid breeding, bypassing the environmental vulnerabilities of traditional methods and promising higher crop yields and enhanced agricultural productivity.
Kashif Nawaz, distinguished researcher and section head for Building Technologies Research at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory, has been named a Fellow of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, or ASME. The Fellow grade recognizes outstanding engineering achievements for members with 10 or more years of active practice.
U2opia Technology has licensed Situ and Heartbeat, a package of technologies from the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory that offers a new method for advanced cybersecurity monitoring in real time.
A new technical collaboration program at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory will help businesses develop and launch electric grid innovations. The initiative will provide companies with access to national laboratory resources, enabling them to capture market opportunities. Even startup and small businesses can now easily submit specific proposals for cost-shared research in ORNL’s Grid Research Integration and Deployment Center, or GRID-C.
A new toolkit helps researchers build optimal superconducting radiofrequency (SRF) cavities that form the backbone of advanced particle accelerators. The cavities’ cleanliness, shape, and roughness of their inner surfaces contribute to their efficiency. In tests of the toolkit, scientists found that smoother cavities function more efficiently.
With a new spin on a reaction called frontal polymerization, researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign's Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology can create materials that mimic the patterned structure that makes natural organisms resilient.
Zymo Research Corporation, a leader in innovative life science solutions, acknowledges the patent infringement lawsuit filed by Qiagen GmbH on August 20, 2024, at the US District Court for the Central District of California regarding its MAGicBead cfDNA isolation technology.
The American Association of Neuromuscular & Electrodiagnostic Medicine (AANEM) proudly announces Ms. Candy Dolan as the 2024 Outstanding Service Award recipient for her dedicated service to her patients, technologists, residents and fellows, and AANEM.
Scientists have achieved a monumental breakthrough in the realm of potassium-based batteries by developing a dendrite-free metallic-potassium anode. This innovation stabilizes the anode, which is essential for enhancing battery safety and performance, and could pave the way for more efficient and reliable energy storage solutions.
