Water-repelling lotus leaves are coated with arrays of microscopic waxy tubules. And the nanoscale hairs on the bottoms of gravity-defying gecko feet get so close to other surfaces that atomic forces of attraction come into play. An electron microscope ...
Berkeley Lab researchers, in collaboration with scientists from SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and the Max Planck Institute, have demonstrated that fluctuation X-ray scattering is capable of capturing the behavior of biological systems in ...
We are continuously expanding our knowledge on how cells function, but many unanswered questions remain. This is especially true for individual cells that are of the same type, such as brain ...
Maintaining that clean-shaven look can be laborious and not to mention expensive; the cost of disposable razors and even changeable heads soon adds up over the years. However, the lifetime of a blade could be lengthened using nanotechnology lasting years ...
In a paper entitled “Heart on a chip: Micro-nanofabrication and microfluidics steering the future of cardiac tissue engineering,” a group of researchers discusses the use of 3D bioprinting and ...
