Tampering with hardware used to read out information is a huge security risk. Researchers in Bochum developed a method to detect such manipulations—monitoring the systems with radio waves that react to the slightest changes in the ambient…

Today, the Faraday Institution awarded 16 small, fast-paced, focused projects in areas not covered within its existing battery research portfolio. The projects address anodes, electrolytes, cathodes, next-generation technologies,…

Researchers from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities have discovered how subtle structural changes in strontium titanate, a metal oxide semiconductor, alter the material’s electrical resistance and affect superconducting properties.…

In alloy research that is breaking new ground, University of Birmingham scientists described how microscopic crystals grow and change shape in molten metals, paving the way for improving the tensile strength of alloys used in casting and…

The design and optimization of the surface electrochemical active sites is hot research for catalysts and batteries. Lithium-sulfur batteries provide a high energy density while being low cost and environmentally friendly. Challenges still…

'The Great Resignation' will continue, and one in five workers says they will likely switch to a new employer in the next 12 months, according to PwC's Global Workforce Hopes and Fears survey. PwC surveyed 52,195 workers in 44 countries and…

Researchers at the NYU Abu Dhabi (NYUAD) Smart Materials Lab published in the journal Nature Communications that organic crystals can serve as efficient and sustainable energy conversion materials for advanced technologies such as robotics…

Classical machine learning is reaching its limits, and scientists must develop new models to better understand and use molecular data. The DFG's Priority Program, "Use and Development of Machine Learning for Molecular Applications –…

Engineers face complex design challenges daily. According to Antti Oulasvirta, professor of electrical engineering at Aalto University and the Finnish Center for Artificial Intelligence, designers rely on intuition, experience, and trial…

Humans perceive reality via touch. Haptics that produce extremely specific vibrations that mimic touch sensations are a way to bring that third sense to life. The challenge is that humans are incredibly particular about something feeling…

There’s been a push for the last decade to synthesize graphyne, but success to date was limited. New research from the University of Colorado Boulder published in Nature Synthesis, however, has the potential to open new possibilities for…

Smark and affordable robot manufacturer Ally Robotics launched a new campaign to raise up to $8.5 million in seed capital via equity crowdfunding site WAX. Restaurant automation leader Miso Robotics is currently backing Ally, even going so…

Apricorn announced new findings from the Apricorn 2022 Global IT Security Survey. Front and center in these findings? While most organizations have data backup plans in place, the data is still at risk. Four hundred veteran IT security…
