What if our cells could be programmed to detect an imminent heart attack and warn us in time to get to the doctor before it happens? Or perhaps they could sense falling blood sugar in diabetics and ...

When a gene is turned on in a cell, it creates a ripple effect along the DNA strand, changing the physical structure of the ...

Future models of consumer goods, from digital cameras to MP3 players, could take a leap forward with a new type of analog circuit demonstrated at a trade show Thursday by researchers from the ...

The digital circuits keep shrinking while the analog circuit designs remain relatively the same. These larger analog designs can drain more power and cause increased real estate needs, until now, ...

Studying the complex operations of neural circuits connecting the brain and the major organs such as the digestive tract requires inventive optical devices able to operate in situ during normal ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Quantum computers promise to solve problems far beyond the reach of classical machines, from simulating new materials to ...

Schematic model showing how memory is consolidated in the prefrontal cortex and how circuitry through the amygdala shifts as hippocampal engram cells become silent and cortical engrams become active.

A team of MIT chemists have created a carbon nanotube "lead" that can be used to draw freehand electronic circuits using a standard, mechanical pencil. In a normal pencil, the lead is usually ...

Comparator-based switched capacitor (CBSC) circuit can be manufactured with smaller size and better power efficiency than traditional analog circuits Future models of consumer goods, from digital ...

Future models of consumer goods, from digital cameras to MP3 players, could take a leap forward with a new type of analog circuit demonstrated at a trade show Thursday by researchers from the ...
