Bioresorbable neural implants offer a promising solution to the challenges of secondary surgeries required for the removal of implanted devices. Here, the authors introduce a fully bioresorbable flexible hybrid opto-electronic system for simultaneous electrophysiological recording and optogenetic stimulation.
Many doubt whether existence has any purpose or meaning, but could entirely civilizations become nihilistic. Would this spell their doom? And if not, what would they be like? Use code isaacarthur at the link below to get an exclusive 60% off an annual Incogni plan: https://incogni.com/isaacarthur.
The story of how life started on Earth is one that scientists are eager to learn. Researchers may have uncovered an important detail in the plot of chapter one: an explanation of how bubbles of fat came to form the membranes of the very first cells.
A key part of the new findings, made by a team from The Scripps Research Institute in California, is that a chemical process called phosphorylation may have happened earlier than previously thought.
Quantum traffic laws applied to the 3D streetscape of a specific kind of crystal can put the brakes on electron rush hour.
In a search for novel materials that can contain bizarre new states of matter, physicists from Rice University in the US led an experiment that forced free-roaming electrons to stay in place.
While the phenomenon has been seen in materials where electrons are constrained to just two dimensions, this is the first time it’s been observed in a three-dimensional crystal metal lattice, known as a pyrochlore. The technique gives researchers a new tool for studying the less conventional activities of plucky, charge-carrying particles.

Join us for an extraordinary livestream webinar, ‘Paving the Way for the Future: Learning from 4 Biostasis Cases and the Challenges and Advancements at Tomorrow Bio’ featuring esteemed speakers Dr. Emil Kendziorra and Dr. Irishikesh Santhosh from Tomorrow Biostasis GmbH. This pivotal session, scheduled for March 18th, 2024, at 7:00 PM, will delve into the latest advancements and real-world applications of biostasis, focusing on the detailed processes and outcomes associated with four distinct patient cases from 2023.
In this webinar, we will explore the intricate procedures and challenges encountered during the biostasis process, including stabilization in the face of cardiopulmonary arrest, the nuances of surgical and perfusion procedures, and the critical cooldown process for long-term storage. Our experts will unpack the innovative techniques employed, the utilization of cryoprotectant solutions, cooling techniques, and the diligent monitoring through CT scans, alongside the resolution of unforeseen technical challenges.
A computational model of the more than 26 million atoms in a DNA-packed viral capsid expands our understanding of virus structure and DNA dynamics, insights that could provide new research avenues and drug targets, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign researchers report in the journal Nature.
“To fight a virus, we want to know everything there is to know about it. We know what’s inside in terms of components, but we don’t know how they’re arranged,” said study leader Aleksei Aksimentiev, an Illinois professor of physics. “Knowledge of the internal structures gives us more targets for drugs, which tend to focus on receptors on the surface or replication proteins.”
