MIT researchers are using living cells to target diseased brain areas and deliver tiny electronic devices that can modulate ...

SPADs employ an avalanche process to generate significant current from a single photon. That results in higher power ...

Crowbar circuits have long been the go-to safeguard against overvoltage conditions, prized for their simplicity and ...

Researchers found that cold is detected differently in the skin than in internal organs. This split system helps explain why ...

Researchers in Sweden have unveiled a way to create high-performance electronic electrodes using nothing more than visible light and specially designed water-soluble monomers. This gentle, ...

Sharma, Fu, and Ansari et al. developed a tool for converting plain-text instructions into photonic circuit designs with the ...

Making a smoothie, going for an evening walk, or having empathy for a loved one are all examples of executive functions that are controlled by the brain's frontal cortex. This area of the brain goes ...

Rap1 is a close relative of the small GTPase Ras, and was identified in a screen for revertants of cells oncogenically transformed by mutant Ras. Rap1 is activated — that is increased GTP-bound over ...
