Researchers at Imperial College London, in the United Kingdom, have developed a robot that can propel itself out of the water and glide 26 meters through the air. The robot is designed to collect water […]
A group of researchers recently presented their findings to the American Chemical Society regarding developing a cancer detecting pen for use in surgery. The “MasSpec Pen” is a handheld medical device that allows surgeons to […]
Researchers at ETH Zurich, in Switzerland, have developed the world’s smallest stent using 4D printing. The stent is 40 times smaller than current stents available. The hope is that the stents could be used in […]
Scientists at the University of Michigan have successfully demonstrated, in mouse models, that an injection of nanoparticles can prevent paralysis in patient’s with spinal cord injuries. The nanoparticles enhance the healing process of the central […]
Researchers at the University of Flinders, in Australia, have developed a micro blood flow monitor. The continuous cardicac flow monitoring probe uses a tiny fibre-optic sensor that is no bigger than 1mm. It’s incredibly small […]
Engineers at John Hopkins University have developed a cryoablation probe as a low-cost alternative breast cancer treatment for use in developing countries. The probe uses widely available carbon dioxide to expose cancerous tissue to extremely […]
Engineers at Duke University have developed a portable 3D printed retinal scanner that could offer a low-cost option to countries with limited resources. The optical coherence tomography (OCT) scanner is fifteen times lighter and smaller […]
Researchers from the University of Stanford have developed a pair of smart glasses that autofocus based on the wearer’s eye movement. The glasses are a means of combating presbyopia, a condition where the lenses in […]
Researchers from the University of Lancaster, in the United Kingdom, have developed a smart wristband that can sense the wearer’s emotions. When the wristband detects a certain level of emotional arousal, it changes color allowing […]
Researchers from the Houston Methodist Research Institute have developed a remote-controlled drug delivering implant for use in chronic disease management. The implant, which is about the size of a grape, delivers continuous, predermined dosages of […]
