Smartphone App Objectively Assesses Brain Injuries in The Field
SEATTLE, Sept. 8, 2017 — A smartphone app that detects concussion and other traumatic brain injuries could be used to determine whether someone — whether a football player, a soldier in battle, or an elderly person who has fallen — should be further assessed for...
M Squared European Researchers Develop Quantum 3D Sensing Devices
GLASGOW, Scotland, Sept. 8, 2017 — Laser developer M Squared is collaborating with teams at the University of Birmingham and Imperial College London to develop devices for measurement and quantum 3D sensing. In the ANAGRAM project, co-funded by Innovate UK and part of the UK National...
Ultrapure Green Light from Perovskite Could Enrich Next-Gen Displays
ZURICH, Sept. 7, 2017 — An ultra-thin LED, as bendable as a sheet of paper and able to emit pure green light, has been developed using nanomaterials and simple room-temperature processes. Until now high-temperature processes have been required to produce pure light using...
2D Material’s High Tunability Could Augment Optoelectronics Applications
BERKELEY, Calif., Sept. 7, 2017 — Research into a 2D material has revealed information about its tunability and band gap, that could help scientists to isolate, enhance and manipulate its most desirable qualities. Potential applications for atomically thin 2D materials range from...
Inlighta Biosciences Receives $2M NIH Grant
ATLANTA, Sept. 7, 2017 — Inlighta Biosciences, a life sciences startup founded by Jenny Yang, a Georgia State University Regents' Professor of Biochemistry, has received a $2 million federal grant to develop improved magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents for the...
