Happy Birthday Peter Greil!
This Special Section of Advanced Engineering Materials has been dedicated to Peter Greil on occasion of this 65th birthday.
2D Nanofluidic Heterojunctions: Electrokinetically Tunable Ion Transport
Ion transport in nanoscale channels and pores exhibits drastically different properties from those in bulk solution if at least one dimension of the channel approaches the characteristic length scale of the electrostatic, van der Waals, or hydrophobic interactions. In...
Cell-free DNA Fragments to Identify Cancer
It is now possible to distinguish the pattern of DNA fragments of normal cells from cancerous cells within the blood of individuals with surgically-operable early stage cancers.1 Regions of the genome have their own local differences in cancer-specific,...
Think Like a Brain Using Artificial Synapses
A new physical approach to the design of intelligent memory, logic, and cognitive devices for brain-like computation.
Young Researcher Interview: Dr. Micaela Matta
Relocating is a common experience for many young scientists. Researchers can broaden their scientific expertise, discuss new ideas, and create meaningful relationships and collaborations by moving abroad. Tracking the movement of early-stage academic researchers...
Mechanical Strength in a Nutshell
A novel cell type with interlocked packing found to be responsible for the hardness of walnuts’ shell
Sprouting Blood Vessels
A new protocol provides insight into the formation and migration of blood vessels in 3D printed scaffolds.
Flexible 1D Composites for Energy Conversion and Water Splitting
Chemists have developed a hybrid semiconductor material for efficient and sustainable hydrogen production.
Crop Tolerance to Herbicides through Artificial Evolution
The domestication of crops is a directed evolutionary process that has lasted for most of human history. It has allocated naturally occurring mutations that encode traits for higher production, better taste, and convenient cultivation. These traits can better manage...
