Engineer looks to dragonflies, bats for flight lessons
Hu said these kinds of physics and aerodynamics lessons -- and many more -- need to be learned before engineers can design effective nano- and micro-scale vehicles. And so he's getting students immersed in the studies. Hu has won a $150,000, ...

thumbnailFast DNA origami opens way for nanoscale machines
Biotechnologists are itching to be able to use DNA to make nanoscale machines, but so far they have made only simple forms — tubes, boxes, triangles — and the process has been laborious and time-consuming (see 'What to make with DNA origami').
