Miniature electronics positioned within textile braids leverages the persistent flexibility and comfort of textiles constructed from electronics with 1D form factors. Here, we developed touchless ...

Transferring information using light signals, and detecting these signals, is not only a cornerstone of modern technology, but has been essential for organisms since evolution provided them with ...

In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, convicts in the U.S. and the U.K. were often forced to crush rocks with picks and sledge hammers. The task was more than punishment or “rehabilitation.” ...

Cell–cell contact formation is a key step in the evolution of multicellularity. While the molecular and cellular processes underlying cell–cell adhesion and contact formation have been extensively ...

Bacterial flagellar motor (BFM) is a large membrane-spanning molecular rotary machine for swimming motility. Torque is generated by the interaction between the rotor and multiple stator units powered ...

In transfusion medicine, the identification of the Rhesus D type is important to prevent anti-D immunisation in Rhesus D negative recipients. In particular, the detection of the very low expressed DEL ...

Epigenetic studies increasingly require analysis of a small number of cells that are of one specific type and derived from patients or animals. In this report, we demonstrate a simple microfluidic ...

Maintenance of vascular integrity during effector immune responses occurring in tissues is a prerequisite of a healthy immune response. The mechanism whereby the vascular endothelium remains undamaged ...
