It may feel like 5G only just arrived, but 6G is already on the horizon. Engineers at LG Electronics and the Fraunhofer Heinrich Hertz Institute (HHI) have now tripled the distance record for data transmission over 6G, reaching a new milestone for prac… Continue reading LG triples distance record for 6G data transmission
Blood stem cell donation is an important medical procedure, but it’s subject to constant shortages. Researchers at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) have now demonstrated how a microfluidic device that mimics the embryonic heart can produce bloo… Continue reading Artificial embryo heart system grows blood stem cells on demand
Scientists at the University of California San Francisco (UCSF) have found a way to fight one of the most common cancer-causing mutations. The new drug puts up an “eat me” marker that can help the immune system or other drugs find and kill the cancer.C… Continue reading Immunotherapy combo targets mutation found in up to 25% of all cancers
Quantum computing requires extremely cold temperatures. To that end, IBM has built and demonstrated a huge “super-fridge” codenamed Project Goldeneye that chills things colder than outer space.Continue ReadingCategory: Computers, TechnologyTags: Quantu… Continue reading IBM builds huge super-fridge colder than space to chill quantum computers
Australian scientists have discovered strangely folded diamonds in rare meteorite samples. In investigating how they came to form, the team found evidence that they were forged in a cataclysm on an ancient dwarf planet.Continue ReadingCategory: Materia… Continue reading Mysterious folded diamonds traced back to ancient dwarf planet cataclysm
We’ve all been annoyed by someone taking a loud call in a quiet room, and now a Japanese tech company has unveiled a creative, if somewhat bizarre, solution. The Mutalk is a Bluetooth mouthpiece that “mutes” users who speak into it.Continue ReadingCate… Continue reading Bizarre Bluetooth mouthpiece mutes speech in public places
Engineers at the University of Illinois Chicago (UIC) have developed a device that can efficiently convert captured carbon dioxide into ethylene, a plastic precursor material. When run using renewable energy, the technique could make for net negative e… Continue reading “Net negative” system converts captured CO2 into plastic precursor
Physicists at the University of Oxford have successfully linked two atomic clocks through quantum entanglement for the first time. The feat can help make these clocks so precise that they begin to approach the fundamental limit of precision set by quan… Continue reading Oxford physicists create network of quantum-entangled atomic clocks
As many couples trying to conceive will attest, much can go wrong during that fateful meeting of sperm and egg. Now, scientists have identified a new protein eggs use to draw in sperm, which could one day lead to new fertility treatments and contracept… Continue reading Protein that draws sperm to eggs could unlock new fertility treatments
Paleontologists have identified the earliest known mammal – a small shrew-like animal that lived about 225 million years ago. The species, known as Brasilodon, had previously been categorized differently, but new research reveals a distinctly mammalian tooth structure.
