Under the cooktop’s smooth glass surface are copper coils. An alternating current passes through the coils, creating a magnetic field that moves current through your pots and pans, heating them up but ignoring the glass cooktop, your fingers, and any
vestigator Rena D’Souza of Baylor won the grant to continue their groundbreaking work on self-assembling, multidomain peptide hydrogels that not only physically support but also encourage the growth of specific kinds of tissues.
The first thing to consider is your heart attack risk, according to Chauncey Crandall, M.D. “People with coronary heart disease, heart attack survivors, or those who have undergone coronary artery bypass surgery or had a stent implanted should not he
The automated flipping machine can provide high-speed and labor-saving style of book digitization. The key point is to design the mechanism not to cause obstruction for the scanner while maintaining full speed. The developed system can flip and scan
Artist Gustav Metzger hooked his brain up to a robotic sculpting machine that carved based on his thoughts. Then he tried desperately to think about nothing.
Researchers at McGill University have discovered a molecular basis for the cancer preventive effects of vitamin D, whereby its active form essentially shuts down cancer cells.
showing that histone H3.3 deposited by the histone-interacting protein HIRA is a key step in reverting nuclei to a pluripotent type, capable of being any one of many cell types.
biodegradable nanoparticle turns out to be the perfect vehicle to stealthily deliver an antigen that tricks the immune system into stopping its attack on myelin and halt a model of relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (MS) in mice, according to ne
