MRI Summer Program Tells Kids To “Make It Matter”
How do you inspire youth to pursue a career in a STEM-related field and set them on the right course at an early age?
Chip-Based Sensors With Incredible Sensitivity
An optical whispering gallery mode resonator developed by Penn State researchers can spin light around the circumference of a tiny sphere millions of times, creating an ultrasensitive microchip-based sensor for multiple applications.
Mimicking Biological Process, Hydrogel Signals And Releases Proteins
An artificial system using a DNA-laced hydrogel can receive a chemical signal and release the appropriate protein, according to Penn State researchers.
Synthetic Material Acts Like An Insect Cloaking Device
Synthetic microspheres with nanoscale holes can absorb light from all directions across a wide range of frequencies, making it a candidate for antireflective coatings.
