Posted by in category: electronics

MIT researchers developed an extraordinary camera capable of capturing 1 trillion frames per second, fast enough to record the movement of light.

This means it can film events that happen at speeds too quick for the human eye to perceive, like the way light travels through objects. The camera uses a technique called streak camera imaging, allowing scientists to visualize and study ultrafast phenomena.

[News] Vietnam Plans to Establish Over 20 Semiconductor Plants

Posted by in categories: computing, government

According to a recent article published on the Vietnam Government News website, on September 21, Prime Minister Pham Minh signed Decision No. 1018/QD-TTg, issuing Vietnam’s strategy and vision for the development of the semiconductor industry, with short-term goals until 2030 and long-term projections until 2050.

In this strategic plan, Vietnam outlined five specific tasks and measures, including: Developing specialized chips; Promoting the development of the electronics industry; Developing human resources and attracting talent in the semiconductor field; Attracting investment in the semiconductor sector; and Other relevant tasks and measures.

Goals for 2050: 3 Manufacturing Plants, 20 Packaging and Testing Facilities Overall, this strategy aims to develop Vietnam’s semiconductor industry through a three-phase roadmap.

Bioengineered enzyme can produce synthetic genetic material, advancing development of new therapeutic options

Posted by in categories: bioengineering, biotech/medical, genetics

A research team led by the University of California, Irvine has engineered an efficient new enzyme that can produce a synthetic genetic material called threose nucleic acid. The ability to synthesize artificial chains of TNA, which is inherently more stable than DNA, advances the discovery of potentially more powerful, precise therapeutic options to treat cancer and autoimmune, metabolic and infectious diseases.

New antibody targeting nerve cells offers long-lasting pain relief

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, chemistry

Cell surface proteins play a crucial role in cell communication and in sensing changes in the extracellular environment.


Professor Akihiko Ito and Dr. Fuka Takeuchi from the Department of Pathology at Kindai University Faculty of Medicine, Japan, set out to seek answers to this critical question. They investigated the impact of anti-CADM1 antibodies on neuronal activity, and their findings were made available online on 22 August 2024 and published in the journal Life Sciences on 11 September 2024. the study.

The team injected 3E1, the anti-CADM1 ectodomain antibody, under the mouse skin to study its localization on nerve fibers. Immunohistochemical and immunofluorescence studies revealed that the injected 3E1 was exclusively localized on peripheral nerves in the dermis. The lead author of the study, Prof. Ito highlights, “As CADM1 can recruit neuronal receptors to the plasma membrane, we hypothesized that this accumulation of 3E1 may blunt neuronal sensitivity, i.e., have an analgesic effect, via altering the expression of CADM1 on nerve fibers. However, to our knowledge, there have been no studies that attempted to develop drugs in terms of inhibiting CADM1 in nerves.

Researchers discover atomic-level mechanism in polycrystalline materials

Posted by in categories: solar power, sustainability

Researchers at the University of California, Irvine and other international institutions have for the first time achieved atomic-scale observations of grain rotation in polycrystalline materials. Widely used in electronic devices, aerospace technologies, automotive applications and solar energy systems, these substances have long been studied for their unique properties and structural dynamics.

Improved prime editing system makes gene-sized edits in human cells at therapeutic levels

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, genetics

“It’s exciting to see the high efficiency and versatility of eePASSIGE, which could enable a new category of genomic medicines,” added Gao. “We also hope that it will be a tool that scientists from across the research community can use to study basic biological questions.”

Prime improvements

Many scientists have used prime editing to efficiently install changes to DNA that are up to dozens of base pairs in length, sufficient to correct the vast majority of known pathogenic mutations. But introducing entire healthy genes, often thousands of base pairs long, in their native location in the genome has been a long-standing goal of the gene-editing field. Not only could this potentially treat many patients regardless of which mutation they have in a disease-causing gene, but it would also preserve the surrounding DNA sequences, which would increase the likelihood that the newly installed gene is properly regulated, rather than expressed too much, too little, or at the wrong time.

The universe is significantly older than previously thought

Posted by in category: cosmology

In a groundbreaking discovery, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has presented data that directly challenges our current understanding of the universe. For years, cosmologists have pegged the universe’s age at approximately 13.8 billion years. Yet, the new JWST findings suggest that this may be a vast underestimation. But how has one telescope managed to disrupt such a long-held belief?

The universe’s secrets are vast, but none has been as puzzling as the presence of ‘impossible early galaxies’—so named due to their peculiar formation periods.
