For Synthetic Biological Circuits, Two Is Better Than One

A two-strain microbial circuit can effectively mimic the population-level oscillations of more complex biological systems.

Fiber-Like Polymer LEDs Developed

Dip coating could help make wearable polymer LEDs much cheaper to manufacture, scientists say.

Making DNA Detection Cheaper & More Flexible

Aptamer-based DNA detection could make it easier and cheaper to diagnose disease, scientists say.

Omnidirectional Wireless Charging Developed

Researchers have overcome a major obstacle in wireless charging with a device that allows charging in any orientation.

Squeezing Light Into A Point-Like Space

By focusing light into a 3D area a few nanometers wide, scientists have increased light intensity 400,000 times.

Self-Assembly Lowers PRAM Operating Currents

By harnessing self-assembling nanomaterials, scientists have made flexible phase-change random access memory devices more feasible.

Enlisting Exosomes Against Whole Tumors

By exploiting transport systems known as exosomes, researchers have developed a system that can deliver anti-cancer drugs uniformly to the whole tumor.

Exploiting Oxygen For 3D Photolithography

Once limited to 2D, photolithography has now been extended to 3D structures by researchers from KAIST.

One-Step, Spring-Loaded Membrane Fusion

A single round of ATP binding provides sufficient energy for the disassembly of the SNARE complex in an explosive burst.
