| Bacteria with a metal diet discovered in dirty glassware Posted: 15 Jul 2020 11:23 AM PDT Newfound bacteria that oxidize manganese help explain the geochemistry of groundwater. |
| Designing DNA from scratch: Engineering the functions of micrometer-sized DNA droplets Posted: 15 Jul 2020 10:12 AM PDT Scientists have constructed ''DNA droplets'' comprising designed DNA nanostructures. The droplets exhibit dynamic functions such as fusion, fission, Janus-shape formation, and protein capture. Their technique is expected to be applicable to a wide variety of biomaterials, opening doors to many promising applications in materials design, drug delivery, and even artificial cell-like molecular systems. |
| Researchers 3D print a working heart pump with real human cells Posted: 15 Jul 2020 10:12 AM PDT In a groundbreaking new study, researchers have 3D printed a functioning centimeter-scale human heart pump in the lab. The discovery could have major implications for studying heart disease, the leading cause of death in the United States killing more than 600,000 people a year. |
| How flies flip around on take-off from an upside- down position Posted: 15 Jul 2020 09:31 AM PDT Flies are able to right themselves very quickly when taking off from an upside-down position. Scientists studying this phenomenon discovered the surprising way these insects begin by turning their bodies before their heads on take-off. |
| Move over, Siri! Researchers develop improv-based Chatbot Posted: 15 Jul 2020 06:55 AM PDT Computer scientists have incorporated improv dialogues into chatbots to produce more grounded and engaging interactions. |
| New organic material unlocks faster and more flexible electronic devices Posted: 15 Jul 2020 06:54 AM PDT Mobile phones and other electronic devices made from an organic material that is thin, bendable and more powerful are now a step closer. |
| Researchers convert female mosquitoes to nonbiting males with implications for mosquito control Posted: 14 Jul 2020 11:47 AM PDT Researchers have proven that a single gene can convert female Aedes aegypti mosquitoes into fertile male mosquitoes and identified a gene needed for male mosquito flight. |
