Upstate now offers talking prescription bottles for visually-impaired or non-English speaking patients
The microelectronics industry is nearing a tipping point. The silicon chips at the heart of everyday electronic devices are running into performance limits, raising the need for new materials and technologies to continue making faster, more efficient devices.
Researchers from Penn State and China鈥檚 Hebei University of Technology addressed this issue by uncovering a new property of a sensor material, enabling the team to develop a new type of flexible sensor that can accurately measure both temperature and physical strain simultaneously but separately to pinpoint various signals more precisely.
The U.S. Department of Energy鈥檚 (DOE) Office of Science is pleased to announce that the Office of Science Graduate Student Research (SCGSR) program is now accepting applications for the 2025 solicitation 1 cycle. Applications are due on Wednesday, May 7, 2025, at 5:00 p.m. ET.
As part of its Community Health Investment Strategy that prioritizes well-being, maternal & child health and economic opportunity, the University Hospitals Board of Directors approved a $3 million mission-related investment in a multi-family, mixed-income housing development in the Hough neighborhood that will prioritize below-market affordable rents. The development, dubbed Gateway66 at League Park, is being developed by Frontline Development Group, LLC, a minority- and female-owned real estate development firm.
Not all patients need a battery of pre-surgery tests -- especially if the results won鈥檛 change how their surgical team treats them or how well they do afterward. Now, a new study shows how hospitals can focus the use of such tests on the patients who truly need them, while safely reducing unnecessary testing in others.
The Department of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign has launched an innovative bachelor's degree program that combines the principles of chemical engineering with rigorous training in data science. The Chemical Engineering + Data Science (ChemE+DS) degree will uniquely prepare graduates to leverage big data in the chemical engineering field to guide informed decision-making and design choices.
A team of scientists has developed an innovative method to transform industrial waste sulfur into dynamic, sulfur-rich polymers, offering a sustainable and efficient solution for utilizing elemental sulfur. The breakthrough process produces materials with self-healing, reprocessable, and degradable properties, providing a versatile platform for smart material applications.
An unhealthy diet, lack of exercise, and smoking 鈥� considered to be a relatively recent societal curse 鈥� are all risk factors to heart disease. But if that is the case, did heart disease exist thousands of years ago?
A new study has unveiled a new strategy to enhance lithium-organic batteries by optimizing the active-site density, accessibility, and reactivity in polyimide cathode materials. This innovative approach offers the potential for batteries with higher capacity, faster charge rates, and improved cycling stability鈥攑ushing the boundaries of sustainable energy storage technology.
Researchers have achieved a monumental leap in the efficiency and stability of inkjet-printed quantum-dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) by employing a pressure-assisted thermal annealing (PTA) technique, which enables the acquisition of highly ordered quantum-dot (QD) thin films via inkjet printing.
Living in a disadvantaged community may decrease the length of time a person can survive with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or ALS, by over 30%, a study suggests. Similar studies have shown that living in resource-deprived areas is associated with a higher burden of Alzheimer鈥檚 Disease and related dementias.
A new study shows that tuberculosis patients cash-incentivised and counselled have a 52% lower relative risk of having an unsuccessful treatment outcome.
Adults tend to overestimate the degree to which home firearm access protects people during home invasions while underestimating the impact on suicide risk, according to Rutgers Health study
Through a combination of anesthesiology, veterinary science, and advanced imaging, the team identified the cause of the sea lion鈥檚 reduced activity as advanced spinal disease and determined an appropriate treatment to alleviate his symptoms.
The Association of Biomolecular Resource Facilities (ABRF) is pleased to announce that the 2025 ABRF Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Award will be presented to Dr. George Langford, Professor Emeritus of Biology at Syracuse University and founder of PAIR-UP. PAIR-UP provides comprehensive workshops each year on imaging technologies and imaging analysis for African American scientists.
