Utilizing Fluidigm Corporation's Dynamic Array and Digital Array integrated fluidic circuits (IFCs), Stanford University researchers to have discovered a much larger spectrum of differences between individual cells than has previously been demonstrated. Among these differences are the communication capabilities that emerge from the interactions of genetic circuitry that mediates cell-to-cell communication.

Using a unique hybrid nanostructure, University of Maryland researchers have shown a new type of light-matter interaction and also demonstrated the first full quantum control of qubit spin within very tiny colloidal nanostructures (a few nanometers), thus taking a key step forward in efforts to create a quantum computer.

Dartmouth researchers have discovered a potentially important piece of the quantum/classical puzzle - learning how the rules of physics in the quantum world (think smaller than microscopic) change when applied to the classical world (think every day items, like cars and trees).

The first published scientific results from the world's most powerful hard X-ray laser, located at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, show its unique ability to control the behaviors of individual electrons within simple atoms and molecules by stripping them away, one by one - in some cases creating hollow atoms.

EcoloCap Solutions Inc., an integrated network of environmentally-focused technology companies utilizing nanotechnology to develop efficient alternative energy solutions, today announced the sale of a NPW-30 unit to R3 Energy LLC.

The bottled water, soda pop, or micro brew-beer that you drank in Pittsburgh, Dallas, Denver or 30 other American cities contains a natural chemical imprint related to geographic location. When you consume these beverage you may leave a chemical imprint in your hair that could be used to track your travels over time, a new study suggests.

Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. today introduced a new application note demonstrating how the Thermo Scientific NanoDrop 3300 enables cancer researchers to study DNA methylation events and polyamine induced DNA G-quadruplex formations by microvolume fluorometry.

New CO2 capture technology under development could reduce CO2 emissions from the production of synthetic crude oil from the Oil Sands by up to 25%.

Project focused on developing carbon nanotube enhanced cathode materials for electric powered vehicle batteries.

RoseStreet Labs Energy, Inc. (RSLE) announced a breakthrough laboratory demonstration of the first known multiband photovoltaic device featuring three distinct light absorption regions integrated into a single layer thin film device.
