Researchers at the Quantum Machines Unit at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST) are studying levitating materials—substances that can remain suspended in a stable position without any physical contact or mechanical support.

The new trachea was created partially from stem cells.

We present a novel technique of genetic transformation of bacterial cells mediated by high frequency electromagnetic energy (HF EME). Plasmid DNA, pGLO (5.4 kb), was successfully transformed into <i>Escherichia coli</i> JM109 cells after exposure to 18 GHz...

(WAND) - University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign has helped lead a project to create the first insulin-producing cow.

Much of science fiction is just an imaginative extension of scientific reality – wetware is nothing new. Neural interfaces and other devices have been in development for...

Creating organoids from cells found in amniotic fluid could bring insights into cause and progression of malformations

A golden-backed frog was discovered with a tiny mushroom growing out of its flank, leaving scientists to question what might be the cause for the unique fungal growth.

Details are scarce, but Neuralink cofounder Elon Musk says initial results are “promising.”

Leaked records reveal what appears to be the first known instance of a police department attempting to use facial recognition on a face generated from crime-scene DNA. It likely won’t be the last.

Surgeons at University of Pennsylvania attached modified organ from pig to brain-dead human body

The new tissue-derived minibrains may complement existing models made from stem cells, the researchers behind the new study say.

Researchers at three universities in Sweden have successfully grown electrodes in living tissue, using the body’s own molecules as triggers. The results, published in the journal Science, pave the way for forming fully integrated, biocompatible electronic ...

In a new report, researchers explored the potential for engineered pathogens to become instruments of warfare.

Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) technologies have become increasingly advanced over the past decade or so, enabling highly engaging gaming experiences and new forms of media entertainment. Yet there is still significant room to improvement,...

The dataset was widely used to train AI systems that can generate realistic images.

<p>Scientists have created tiny moving biological robots from human tracheal cells that can encourage the growth of neurons across artificial &quot;wounds&quot; in the lab. Using patients&#39; own cells could permit growth of Anthrobots that assist healing...

Vaccinations could be made less painful by treating skin with a vaccine-laden liquid and using ultrasound to push it into the body

Toshiba developed a lithium battery that does not use cobalt and can charge 80% in 5 minutes. Toshiba announced that it had developed a lithium-ion battery that does not contain cobalt.

Quantum teleportation is a technique allowing the transfer of quantum information between two distant quantum objects, a sender and a receiver, using a phenomenon called quantum entanglement as a resource.

The startup behind Halo is aiming for a future where a wearable headband can give people the experience of awakening in a lucid dream.
