MIT engineers have designed Biohybrid Robots like springs to maximize the work of live muscle fibers and it also could be used as a basic skeleton-like module for almost any muscle-bound bot. Inspired by human muscles, which are nature’s perfect actuators for designs that turn energy into motion. Muscle fibers are more powerful and precise […]
Read MoreHeart disease is the leading cause of death, causing over 17.9 million deaths around the world every year. For millions of patients with advanced heart failure awaiting an organ donor, ventricular assist devices (VADs) serve as a literal lifeline. Unfortunately, about 50% of these patients will suffer from infections caused by the thick cable these […]
Read MoreStainless steel is an integral part of many industries thanks to its unique combination of strength and oxidation resistance. The medical field, in particular, uses different stainless-steel alloys for various specialized instruments, implants, surgical tools, and other applications. The main reason stainless steel is so important in the medical industry is its inertness. Stainless steel […]
Read MoreMedical devices play a pivotal role in improving the health and well-being of people globally. Thanks to these devices, people are healthier and happier, and their lives are significantly better. Let’s face it. Healthcare is fundamental to our quality of life. But with healthcare costs rising, there’s mounting pressure on manufacturers to develop innovative, cost-effective […]
Read MoreA research team at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) and ICMAB has successfully created magnetism from non-magnetic materials by leveraging wireless technology. Traditionally, electronic devices have used electric currents to manipulate electrical and magnetic properties. However, this can lead to overheating, which can reduce efficiency and shorten the lifespan of devices. In recent years, […]
Read MorePollution and climate change are threatening the world’s most important resource, drinking water. It is said that over half of the world’s population could be facing water scarcity by 2025. Fog nets have long been a literal lifesaver in arid regions with regular fog as they are used to gather water in useful quantities and […]

Following reported FDA approval for human trials, the company has successfully raised an additional $280 million in funding, bolstering its total investment to an impressive $643 million. In a recent announcement, Neuralink extended an invitation to individuals […]
Read MoreRecent advancements in material science and design engineering have increased the popularity of advanced metal alloys, especially in critical industries such as aerospace and medical device manufacturing. However, the increased usage of these advanced materials in complex geometries has set new manufacturing challenges as it is often difficult and expensive to machine these parts with […]
Read MoreLead contamination in water has devastating impacts on human health and the environment. To combat this issue, researchers have developed a new sponge capable of filtering lead and other harmful contaminants. Scientists at Northwestern University have developed a highly efficient sponge that filters out a range of con including heavy metals like arsenic, cobalt, and […]
Read MoreA prosthetic device from the prosthetic developer COVVI has been adapted to a new robotic system that can be remotely controlled for operations in dangerous nuclear environments. As an example, operations will include handling nuclear materials and waste. As mentioned in the project announcement from May 2023, “The remote control of robotics (teleoperation) will reduce […]
Read MoreResearchers have developed various Ai systems in recent years that can diagnose cancer from photos with greater speed, accuracy, and even more information. This has sparked a lot of interest in the sector. Novocure, a global oncology business, announced earlier this week the completion of a successful trial using tumor-treating electric fields in the treatment […]
