Researchers at MIT have unexpectedly stumbled upon a way to 3D print active electronics – meaning transistors and components for controlling electrical signals – without the use of semiconductors or even special fabrication technology.

That goes far beyond what we can currently do with 3D printers. And if perfected, this method could eventually spell the beginning of a new wave in prototyping, experimentation, and even DIY projects for tinkerers at home.

With 3D printing, any of a range of materials including thermoplastic filaments, resin, ceramic, and metal, are laid down in successive thin layers to form a three-dimensional object. That means you can print all kinds of things, from action figures to jewelry to furniture to buildings.

Verticals that will be most impacted by innovative developments in technology and science are the disciplines of medicine, biotechnology, and health. Those industry verticals will see a profound growth of technological innovation in the near future.

T he astoundingly complex LHC “atom smasher” at the CERN center in Geneva, Switzerland, are fired up to its maximum energy levels ever in an endeavor to identify — or perhaps generate — tiny black holes.

If successful a very new universe is going to be exposed – modifying completely not only the physics books but the philosophy books too.

For the first time, an international cadre of electrical engineers has developed a new method for photonic in-memory computing that could make optical computing a reality in the near future.

Spectrometers are technology for reading light that date back to the era of famed 17th-century physicist Isaac Newton. They work by breaking down light waves into their different colors—or spectra—to provide information about the makeup of the objects being measured.

Researchers have identified genes influencing muscle aging, including USP54, using AI analysis of gene expression data. These findings may lead to drug discovery and exercise-based interventions targeting muscle mass preservation.

The largest known prime number has been discovered by an amateur researcher and former Nvidia employee.

The new number is 2^136,279,841 – 1, which beats the previous title holder (2^82,589,933 – 1) by more than 16 million digits.

I believe that the next generation of AI turing machines will be conscious turing machines that no longer read just tape but have their own consciousness that allows them to fix code or even be aware of its own code and fix it if it gets a virus.

The smallest machine of its kind in the world uses a single photon as its qubit and it can perform calculations without needing the cumbersome equipment to cool it down to near absolute zero.
