Mass-Produced Mini Lung Organoids Could Help Tailor Cancer Treatments

Biomedical, Biotechnology, Medicine /

A team of scientists has created a straightforward method for automated production of lung organoids, potentially transforming the development of lung disease treatments. These tiny structures, which contain the same types of cells found in real lungs, could allow for more efficient testing of early-stage experimental drugs without relying on animal models. In the future, […]

A Minimalist Ring Replaces the Mouse for full Desktop Control

PCs & Tablets, Tech /

Over the past decade, many lighter, faster mouse alternatives have emerged, but none fully satisfied users. The newest contender is the Prolo Ring, which debuted on Kickstarter just a week ago. Interest is clearly high—its campaign reached full funding in only nine minutes. Earlier ring mice were bulky, had exposed buttons, and mimicked a traditional

Meteorite Samples Are Time Capsules of The Early Solar System

Astronomy, Planetary Science, Space & Environment /

When a meteor flashes through the sky, it’s more than a striking sight—it’s nature delivering a time capsule to Earth. Inside are clues to the solar system’s earliest days and the processes that shaped planets, including our own. In a recent Space Science Reviews paper—soon to be included as a chapter in an upcoming textbook—Lawrence

High-Tech Materials Boost The Efficiency of Flexible Digital Screens

Computer & Electronics, Tech /

High-end screens in our digital devices—such as TVs, smartphones, laptops, and gaming consoles—are driven by organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). If these displays could conform to any 3D or irregular surface, they could enable technologies such as wearable electronics, medical implants, and humanoid robots that more seamlessly integrate with—or mimic—the soft human body. “While displays are

Using Magnetic Fields, Soft Robots Can now Operate More Intelligently On Their Own

Engineering, Robotics /

Soft robots excel at flexing and handling delicate objects, allowing them to navigate tight or fragile environments to grow coral larvae in labs or inspect chemical plant piping. Yet it is still difficult to achieve true embodied intelligence in these robots, where sensing, actuation, and power all function together without external tethering. Magnetic Fields Boost

Automation and Smart, Data-Driven Tech are Transforming Construction’s Future

Automation, Robotics, Tech /

Atlas, CU Denver’s robotic dog, navigated the crawlspace of the Anythink Nature Library construction site in Thornton last month, its lights flashing as it worked its way through narrow, dim corridors. At the entrance, Associate Professor Moatassem Abdallah and seven students analyzed Atlas’s 360° footage and sensor data to guide the project’s next phases. The
