Researchers from Japan and Netherlands demonstrated a record-breaking data-rate of 22.9 petabits per second using only a single optical fiber, which was more than double our previous world record of 10.66 petabits…
Scientists build tiny biological robots “Anthrobots” from human cells to heal the body
Researchers at Tufts University and Harvard University’s Wyss Institute have created tiny biological robots that they call Anthrobots from human tracheal cells that can move across a surface and have been found…
The wearable device “Halo” could help you work on your tasks during your sleep by stabilizing lucid dreams
We spend a significant amount of time on sleep. What if we could work on tasks during our sleep too? Now, this is becoming a reality. A neurotechnology company named “Prophetic” is…
With a quantum “squeeze,” clocks could keep even more precise time
The practice of keeping time hinges on stable oscillations. In a grandfather clock, the length of a second is marked by a single swing of the pendulum. In a digital watch, the…
Search algorithm reveals nearly 200 new kinds of CRISPR systems
By analyzing bacterial data, researchers have discovered thousands of rare new CRISPR systems that have a range of functions and could enable gene editing, diagnostics, and more. Microbial sequence databases contain a…
