- Molecules for a new class of antibiotics that can overcome drug resistant bacteria
About a decade ago, researchers in UC Santa Barbara chemistry professor Guillermo Bazan's lab began to observe a recurring challenge in their research: Some of the compounds they were developing to...
- Innovative paper-like, battery-free, AI-enabled sensor for holistic wound monitoring
Timely and effective monitoring of wound healing status is critical to wound care and management. Impaired wound healing, such as chronic wounds (i.e. those that do not heal after 3 months) and pos...
- Three new biomarkers identified to detect consumption of emerging synthetic cannabinoid
A team of scientists from the National University of Singapore (NUS) has successfully identified the urinary biomarkers of an emerging subclass of synthetic cannabinoids, called OXIZID, to monitor ... - CO2 could be stored below ocean floor
Climate change is one of the most pressing challenges facing humanity. To combat its potentially catastrophic effects, scientists are searching for new technologies that could help the world reach ...
- Aerogels made from scrap rubber tyres
A team of NUS researchers has achieved a major technological breakthrough by converting waste rubber tyres into super-light aerogels that have a wide range of applications. This is the first time t... - The world's first monolayer amorphous film
Researchers from NUS have synthesised the world's first one-atom-thick amorphous material. Previously thought to be impossible, the discovery of monolayer amorphous carbon (MAC) could finally settl...
- New metallic material for flexible soft robots
'Origami robots' are state-of-the-art soft and flexible robots that are being tested for use in various applications including drug delivery in human bodies, search and rescue missions in disaster ... - Drinking tea improves brain health
A recent study led by Assistant Professor Feng Lei from the NUS Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine's Department of Psychological Medicine revealed that regular tea drinkers have better organised brain... - How cells migrate
When faced with difficult terrain, off-road vehicles can switch from two- to four-wheel drive to keep moving forward. Similarly, cell migration can be driven either by protrusion-directed crawling,... - Toxic bacteria on microplastics retrieved from tropical waters
A field survey conducted by a team of marine scientists from the National University of Singapore (NUS) has uncovered toxic bacteria living on the surfaces of microplastics, which are pieces of pla...
- Diverging thermal conductivity
Physicists at the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research show unlimited heat conduction in graphene. Scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research (MPI-P) in Mainz and the Natio...
