Programmable photonics devices, which use light to perform complex computations, are emerging as a key area in integrated ...

A new study published in the journal PLoS ONE has reported on the first human tests of an experimental therapy using sound and light to treat Alzheimer's disease (AD). The initial findings are ...

Phononic circuits are emerging devices that can manipulate sound waves (i.e., phonons) in ways that resemble how electronic circuits control the flow of electrons. Instead of relying on wires, ...

Working in a mouse model, UC Davis researchers are able to distinguish brain cells activated by a psychedelic drug. This image shows the prefrontal cortex of a mouse injected with scFLARE2 (purple) ...

If a poll was taken to determine what aspect of the hot rod hobby enthusiasts dislike the most, there’s a high likelihood that “diagnosing electrical issues/gremlins” would be the popular answer. An ...

In a breakthrough for next-generation technologies, scientists have learned how to precisely control the behavior of tiny waves of light and electrons, paving the way for faster communications and ...

In a new study, scientists demonstrated that a test using infrared light can detect the difference between blood samples from patients with lung cancer and samples from those without the disease with ...

There’s an old saying: When the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail. Sometimes referred to as “the law of the instrument,” that hammer-and-nail idea is a common pitfall in ...
