Anti-aging enzyme discovery raises prospect of lifespan extension

A study from researchers at KAIST (Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology) is providing new insights into a cellular energy pathway that has been linked to longer lifespan. The research, conducted in human cells and roundworms, raises the p… Continue reading Anti-aging enzyme discovery raises prospect of lifespan extension

Mole-inspired robot is designed to dig its way through other planets

As we continue to explore other planets, we’re going to want to know not only what’s on their surface, but also what’s underneath it. That’s where the Mole-bot comes in – it’s a robot that autonomously tunnels its way through the ground.Continue Readin… Continue reading Mole-inspired robot is designed to dig its way through other planets

2D additives make perovskite solar cells more durable in the Sun

The Sun is a great source of energy, but of course those rays can be damaging as well. Engineers in Korea have now developed a new way to make perovskite solar cells to protect them from the elements without reducing their efficiency.Continue ReadingCa… Continue reading 2D additives make perovskite solar cells more durable in the Sun

Plug-and-play brain implant uses replaceable cartridges for continuous drug delivery

Hooking our brains up to machines could indeed merge human and artificial intelligence, as envisioned by Elon Musk’s Neuralink, and the like. But the more immediate benefits are likely to come in the form of new forms of treatment for brain d… Continue reading Plug-and-play brain implant uses replaceable cartridges for continuous drug delivery
