| Exoskeleton-assisted walking may improve bowel function in people with spinal cord injury Posted: 28 May 2021 11:48 AM PDT A team of researchers has shown that physical intervention plans that included exoskeleton-assisted walking helped people with spinal cord injury evacuate more efficiently and improved the consistency of their stool. |
| A helping hand for working robots Posted: 28 May 2021 08:40 AM PDT Researchers have developed and tested a new type of human-like mechanical hand that combines the benefits of existing robot hands while eliminating their weaknesses. |
| Electrons waiting for their turn: New model explains 3D quantum material Posted: 28 May 2021 08:40 AM PDT Scientists have developed a new understanding of how electrons behave in strong magnetic fields. Their results explain measurements of electric currents in three-dimensional materials that signal a quantum Hall effect - a phenomenon thus far only associated with two-dimensional metals. |
| Scientists overhear two atoms chatting Posted: 27 May 2021 11:52 AM PDT How materials behave depends on the interactions between countless atoms. You could see this as a giant group chat in which atoms are continuously exchanging quantum information. Researchers have now been able to intercept a chat between two atoms. |
| Quark-gluon plasma flows like water Posted: 27 May 2021 08:24 AM PDT What does quark-gluon plasma -- the hot soup of elementary particles formed a few microseconds after the Big Bang -- have in common with tap water? Scientists say it's the way it flows. |
| Electric fish -- and humans -- pause before communicating key points Posted: 26 May 2021 10:21 AM PDT Electric fish pause before sharing something particularly meaningful. Pauses also prime the sensory systems to receive new and important information. The study reveals an underlying mechanism for how pauses allow neurons in the midbrain to recover from stimulation. |
