Water Technology, Knowledge and Power. How to Address Them All?
A review by Aubriot and co-workers aims to understand how scientific literature has addressed, whether explicitly or implicitly, the relationship between water knowledge, technology and power.
Cellular Therapeutics: Small Molecule Signaling, Regulation, and Potential Applications
Small molecules have many important roles across the tree of life.
Molecular Therapeutics for Drug-Free Cancer Treatment
Drug-free macromolecular therapeutic systems can target and kill cancer cells without causing the side-effects of the drugs currently in clinical use.
Citizen Science for Hydrological Risk Reduction and Resilience Building
Citizen science projects work best when there is community buy-in, when their purposes are clearly defined at the outset, and when the motivations and skill-sets of all participants and stakeholders are well understood.
Holographic Optical Tweezers Applied to Living Zebrafish Embryos
A complementary technique, based on the Holographic Optical Tweezers (HOT) technique, which enables several locations within the same sample to be probed simultaneously, is developed.
Household Electricity Pricing: Dynamic Pricing under Different Taxation Schemes
The observed behavior in the Danish electricity retail market is considered, arguing that benefits of dynamic pricing should be analyzed with consumers’ adoption decisions in mind.
Biopolymers Murray Goodman Memorial Prize Winner 2017: William F. DeGrado
Recognizing his seminal contributions to the de novo design of peptides, proteins and pharmaceutically-active small molecules, we are thrilled to present Professor William F. DeGrado with the 2017 Biopolymers Murray Goodman Memorial Prize.
Stabilizing Optical Coherence Tomography
An American team of scientists develop a novel phase stabilization technique with significant improvement in the phase stability of a micro-electromechanical (MEMS) vertical cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) based swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) system.
Flexible Capacitor from Dielectric Polymers Improve
