Researchers at the City University of New York (CUNY) have shown that polaritons can drive a fundamental type of molecular reaction, resulting in charge transfer.

This new invention could make today’s heavy electric vehicle batteries lighter, safer and increase their range. The researchers behind the technology believe it is also ideal for use in aviation, space travel, drones and shipping.

The welfare benefits system is failing those who suffer from Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD), new research has found.

The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) selected eight cutting-edge projects for the latest round of Sustainable Smart Campus as a Living Lab program for testing on campus. Covering a wide range of sustainability challenges on campus, the projects address energy efficiency, renewable energy optimization, water management, wellness, ecosystem enhancement, and predictive maintenance strategies, providing students and faculty with hands-on experience with prototypes before real-world implementation.

A new type of drone, inspired by the aerial precision of birds of prey, could one day navigate through dense city skyscrapers to deliver our packages or inspect hard-to-reach offshore wind farms, thanks to pioneering research from the University of Surrey.

A handheld sensor and innovative technique developed by Texas A&M AgriLife Research scientists could one day offer a noninvasive alternative to food diaries and blood tests when monitoring diet and health.

Across the globe, deserts are spreading, engulfing homes, roads and even entire villages in sand. Engineers at the University of Colorado Boulder are exploring how humans can shift the paths of these towering formations.

A new research project at the Texas A&M Department of Rangeland, Wildlife and Fisheries Management Ecology and Natural Resources Teaching Area will contribute to a greater understanding of white-tailed deer biology and ecology while providing students with vital experience in field-based data collection and analysis.

A Potential Cure for Paralysis: The First Human Spinal Cord Repair using The Patient Own Cells The surgery is expected to soon take place in Israel, in which a personalized engineered human spinal cord will be implanted in a paralyzed patient, with the goal of enabling the patient to rise from a wheelchair and walk again. Behind this medical advance stands Prof. Tal Dvir, Head of the Sagol Center for Regenerative Biotechnology, Head of the Nanotechnology Center at Tel Aviv University, and Chief Scientist of the biotech company Matricelf.
