Using neuroimaging data of nearly 12,000 participants, researchers have confirmed there is a need for a ‘whole brain approach’ to diagnosing, researching and treating attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).Continue ReadingCategory: Medical, Sc… Continue reading ADHD affects connectivity across the whole brain, study confirms
Scientists have performed the first successful transplant of an organ that had been cryogenically frozen and rewarmed, thanks to a new preservation chemical. Rats that were given transplants of kidneys preserved through this technique regained regular … Continue reading Organs cryogenically frozen, thawed and transplanted for first time
Engineers at the University of Minnesota have developed a new system that can move objects without making physical contact. The technique involves ultrasound waves acting on specialized surfaces to push or even pull objects in different directions, whi… Continue reading Ultrasound metasurfaces move large objects without touching them
A team of engineers has developed a new type of camera that can detect radiation in terahertz (THz) wavelengths. This new imaging system can see through certain materials in high detail, which could make it useful for security scanners and other sensor… Continue reading New camera system taps into terahertz wavelengths for better imaging
A research team working to better understand the movements of cancerous cells has made an important breakthrough, describing a “sweet spot” where they like to congregate. The discovery offers valuable new insights into the migration patterns of these c… Continue reading “Sweet spot” for cancer exposes migration patterns of spreading cells
It’s an unfortunate truth that many important chemical reactions require rare and expensive metals as catalysts. But now, scientists have developed a device that actively tweaks plain old aluminum to make it behave like other metals on the fly.Continue… Continue reading “Catalytic condenser” lets cheap metals act like rare, expensive ones
Researchers have reported a new non-hormonal male contraceptive pill that disrupts a particular protein involved in sperm formation. Tests in mice have so far been promising, showing effective prevention of pregnancy, reversibility within weeks, and no… Continue reading Male contraceptive pill proves effective and reversible in mice
Presently, OLED screens are manufactured by specially trained technicians in large high-tech factories. Now, however, scientists have managed to 3D print a flexible OLED display, paving the way for small businesses and even individuals to one day be ab… Continue reading World-first OLED display is both flexible and fully 3D-printed
Patients don’t like getting needles, nor do clinicians like having to keep protein-based vaccines cold at all times. A new polymer wafer – which dissolves when placed under the tongue – could address both issues.Continue ReadingCategory: Medical, Scien… Continue reading Under-the-tongue wafer could deliver vaccines – at room temperature
Embarrassed overreaction or righteous indignation? An academic research group has provoked the Linux crew to ban their whole university! Continue reading Linux team in public bust-up over fake “patches” to introduce bugs
