Body of Work podcast: The importance of vaccines and public health

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, health

The United States is experiencing its worst measles outbreak since 1992. While the spread of measles can be prevented with the MMR vaccine, misinformation about vaccines has gained traction in recent years.

How do vaccines help protect communities and public health overall? Dr. Peter Hotez, dean for the National School of Tropical Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine, discusses what you should know about vaccines on the Body of Work podcast.

Webb reveals colors, features of most distant star ever detected

Posted by in category: cosmology

Webb’s NIRCam (Near-Infrared Camera) instrument reveals the star, nicknamed Earendel, to be a massive B-type star more than twice as hot as our sun, and about a million times more luminous. (Image: NASA, ESA, CSA, D. Coe (STScI/AURA for ESA; Johns Hopkins University), B. Welch (NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center; University of Maryland, College Park). Image processing: Z. Levay.)

The star in the very distant universe, and a billion years after the big bang, was captured by the observatory’s Near-InfraRed Camera instrument.

Arrays of quantum rods could enhance TVs or virtual reality devices, research suggests

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, nanotechnology, quantum physics, virtual reality

Flat screen TVs that incorporate quantum dots are now commercially available, but it has been more difficult to create arrays of their elongated cousins, quantum rods, for commercial devices. Quantum rods can control both the polarization and color of light, to generate 3D images for virtual reality devices.

Using scaffolds made of folded DNA, MIT engineers have come up with a new way to precisely assemble arrays of quantum rods. By depositing quantum rods onto a DNA scaffold in a highly controlled way, the researchers can regulate their orientation, which is a key factor in determining the polarization of light emitted by the array. This makes it easier to add depth and dimensionality to a virtual scene.

“One of the challenges with quantum rods is: How do you align them all at the nanoscale so they’re all pointing in the same direction?” says Mark Bathe, an MIT professor of biological engineering and the senior author of the new study. “When they’re all pointing in the same direction on a 2D surface, then they all have the same properties of how they interact with light and control its polarization.”

Watch the Fully Solar-Powered Yacht ‘Tesla of the Seas’ Travel the Ocean

Posted by in category: sustainability

Some yacht builders are making waves in the industry by designing zero-emission, solar-powered alternatives that outperform their diesel-chugging counterparts, and some are so quiet that you can hear the marine life swim. Furthermore, when compared to the rumble of a diesel engine, which sends the smell of diesel fumes your way, getting to smell the ocean breeze without any disruptions is a huge plus.
