Parallel alignment of dressing fibers accelerates wound healing
A team of researchers from Singapore has reported the development of a skin-mimicking scaffold by parallelly aligning nanofibers made up of a mixture of polycaprolactone (PCL) and gelatin that enhances wound healing. Their research has recently been.....»»
Time travel could be possible, but only with parallel timelines
Have you ever made a mistake that you wish you could undo? Correcting past mistakes is one of the reasons we find the concept of time travel so fascinating. As often portrayed in science fiction, with a time machine, nothing is permanent anymore—yo.....»»

Research shows that forest management in Europe is out of alignment with natural patterns
European forests are in trouble. "Not because they're being lost," says University of Vermont scientist William Keeton. "Europe, actually, is greener and more heavily forested now than it has been in centuries." But many of the continent's forests ar.....»»

NASA Will Test SpinLaunch"s Ability To Fling Satellites Into Orbit
NASA has signed up to test SpinLaunch's extraordinary whirl 'n' hurl space launch technology, which accelerates a launch vehicle to hypersonic speeds using an electric centrifuge instead of a rocket, hurling it skyward like a space discus. New Atlas.....»»
Light amplification accelerates chemical reactions in aerosols
Aerosols in the atmosphere react to incident sunlight. This light is amplified in the interior of the aerosol droplets and particles, accelerating reactions. ETH researchers have now been able to demonstrate and quantify this effect and recommend fac.....»»
Bioprinting for bone repair improved with genes
Given enough time and energy, the body will heal, but when doctors or engineers intervene, the processes do not always proceed as planned because chemicals that control and facilitate the healing process are missing. Now, an international team of eng.....»»
"Black Carbon" Threat To Arctic as Sea Routes Open Up With Global Heating
As climate crisis allows new maritime routes to be used, sooty shipping emissions accelerates ice melt and risk to ecosystems. From a report: In February last year, a Russian gas tanker, Christophe de Margerie, made history by navigating the icy wate.....»»
Sunlight"s healing effects help imperiled green sea turtles with tumors
A new study by Florida Atlantic University researchers is literally shedding "light" on a way to improve the health of endangered green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas) prone to a disease called fibropapillomatosis. Affecting about 60 percent of sea turt.....»»

Engineering researchers develop porous nanoparticles for regenerative medicine
Stem cells can develop into many different types of cells in the body. For instance, when a person is injured, stem cells come to the site of the injury and aid in healing damaged tissues. New nanotechnology developed by a team of researchers from Te.....»»
Printing optical chips as a layer cake
Faster, more energy-efficient ICT, or sensors to detect anything between beginning fruit rot and microscopic cracks in glass fibers: photonic technology holds great promises for the future. To deliver on those promises, a European consortium led by T.....»»
Oxytocin treatment can take lions from ferocious to friendly
Lions typically aren't keen on making new friends. The giant cats guard their territory fiercely and can mortally wound a foe with a single swipe. While aggression is an advantage for apex predators in the wild, it poses real challenges for lions on.....»»
Using math to describe the spinning transition between the assemblage of fibers in yarn
