SEAS atmospheric chemist Frank Keutsch argues for small, transparent studies to answer basic science questions about solar geoengineering – not for deployment ...

The original SWIFT method (left) printed hollow channels through living OBBs (green), but had no structure to contain fluid as it flowed through. Co-SWIFT (right) creates a cell-laden vessel (red) ...

“Our research shows that the solid-state battery could be fundamentally different from the commercial liquid electrolyte lithium-ion battery,” said Li. “By studying their fundamental thermodynamics, ...

Unlike 3D printing, which gets slower as features get smaller, FRJS can quickly spin fibers at the single micron scale – or about fifty times smaller than a single human hair. This is important when ...

Students’ synthetic biology project claims gold at international competition ...

Harvard University researchers have launched a new project, the Stratospheric Controlled Perturbation Experiment (SCoPEx), to explore precisely how particulate matter interacts with the Earth’s upper ...

Our study adds to the mounting evidence that air pollution from ongoing dependence on fossil fuels is detrimental to global health. We can’t in good conscience continue to rely on fossil fuels, when ...

Over the last decade, advances in 3D printing have unlocked new possibilities for bioengineers to build heart tissues and structures. Their goals include creating better in vitro platforms for ...

Key Takeaways AI has advanced rapidly, making tools like speech recognition, autocomplete, and image search part of everyday life. The greatest potential lies in AI that augments human abilities, ...

Key Takeaways Harvard researchers have created a soft, wearable robotic device that provides personalized movement assistance for individuals with upper-limb impairment, such as stroke and ALS ...

When a crack forms in the new material, the long spaghetti strands spread out the stress by sliding past each other, allowing more rubber to crystallize as it stretches, and overall making the ...

To go airborne, the robot uses what’s called latch-mediated spring actuation, in which potential energy is stored in an elastic element – the furcula – that can be deployed in milliseconds like a ...
