Ruby Sharrard and Olivia Allen, two aerospace engineering seniors from The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH), a part of The University of Alabama System, were selected to present their propulsion research at the University Consortium for Applied Hypersonics (UCAH) fall forum in Alexandria, Va.
A research team at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory created a novel advanced microscopy tool to “write” with atoms, placing those atoms exactly where they are needed to give a material new properties.

Comprehensive gene panel testing, one of the exciting new tools in cancer diagnostics, warrants greater scrutiny — as does a federal program aimed at speeding up the review process for proposed new medical technologies. Those are conclusions of Yale medical experts who studied both and published a report in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute on Sept.
“They say water is life, and that couldn’t be truer,” said Anne Francis, who has spent her life on the Navajo Nation, watching how water sustains the land, the crops and the herds of cattle on her family ranch. But life on the Navajo Nation is hard. The vast landscape is dotted with old-fashioned windmills, and many places are untouched by modern conveniences like electricity.
Scientists are pioneering a new approach to designing electrolytes for more energy-efficient and less carbon-intensive electrochemical processes. They hope to improve electrolyte performance in applications such as iron production for steel.
The tiered umbrella is one of Thailand’s oldest and most sacred ornamental symbols. Constructing one of these ornate pieces, also called chatras, can take master artisans up to six months. However, in the Journal of Laser Applications, researchers demonstrate a technique for constructing seven-tiered umbrellas using high-powered lasers, which dramatically reduces the production time. Employing carbon dioxide lasers, they were able to fashion umbrellas from stainless steel in a matter of days while preserving their intricate beauty.
Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis devise an agent to help large language models think.
In a multisite randomized controlled trial published in JAMA Network Open in September 2024, the use of Ceevra 3D models in robotic prostatectomy procedures were shown to reduce risk of cancer recurrence, improve functional outcomes, and improve rates of trifecta outcomes.
Perovskia Solar has won more than ten leading companies from the Internet of Things (IoT) industry as customers and received over two million Swiss francs in seed capital. The multi-award-winning Empa spin-off prints customized solar cells for almost any electronic device. These can be produced cost-effectively – and even work indoors.
A research team led by Georgia Tech’s Hailong Chen has developed a low-cost iron chloride cathode for all-solid-state lithium-ion batteries, which could significantly reduce costs and improve performance for electric vehicles and large-scale energy storage systems.
A broad-based look at the future of Argonne research.
UChicago Medicine has become the first medical center in IL to implant the Revi neuromodulation device, a minimally-invasive, convenient alternative to existing treatments for urinary urgency incontinence (UUI).
Irvine, Calif., Sept. 23, 2024 — Recent medical and biotechnology advances have helped people suffering from cardiovascular disease, the leading cause of death in the United States, but new treatments have not been distributed evenly or equitably throughout society, according to researchers at the University of California, Irvine.
Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have developed an advanced artificial intelligence (AI)-driven tool to improve the management and prognosis of prostate cancer. Details on the findings were reported in the September 20 online issue of European Urology [https://doi.org/10.1016/j.eururo.2024.07.013].
A recent study has unveiled the pivotal roles of GRAS transcription factors, which act as master regulators in plant development and stress adaptation. The GRAS gene family is named after the first three genes that were identified: GIBBERELLIC ACID INSENSITIVE (GAI), REPRESSOR OF GA1 (RGA), and SCARECROW (SCR).The research sheds light on how these factors coordinate plant growth, fruit ripening, and resilience to environmental stressors, offering crucial insights that could drive future innovations in crop enhancement and global food security amid climate challenges.
Professor Ruiliang Pu, a distinguished figure in the field of hyperspectral remote sensing, left a profound legacy through his groundbreaking work. His research has transformed how we understand forest ecosystems, particularly through the use of advanced remote sensing technologies to monitor forest health. Pu's innovative methods continue to influence the field, providing essential tools for environmental protection and resource management.
