Carbon nanotubes - tiny, rolled-up tubes of graphite - promise to add speed
to electronic circuits and strength to materials like carbon composites, used in
airplanes and racecars. A major problem, however, is that the metals used to
grow...

Traditionally, stimulating nerves or brain tissue involves cumbersome wiring
and a sharp metal electrode. But a team of researchers at Case Western Reserve
University is going "wireless."
And it's a unique collaboration...

The NIST team investigated the dietary accumulation, elimination and
toxicity of two types of fluorescent quantum dots using a simple,
laboratory-based food chain with two microscopic aquatic organisms—Tetrahymena
pyriformis, a...
