A collaboration between Danish and American researchers has resulted in the development of a new method that enables the measurement of enzyme activities in individual human cells. This method can be used to measure how cell-to-cell variation in tumours affects the overall response to chemotherapy and thus clarify some of the molecular causes of the chemo-resistance often seen in cancer patients.

The Graphene Flagship is pleased to announce the workshop "Graphene for Future Emerging Technologies: Challenges and Opportunities" that will take place in Madrid, Spain on October 18th, 2011.

Solar cell bonded to recently developed catalyst can harness the sun, splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen.

Current flowing along the edges of a promising quantum device is insensitive to its magnetic impurities.

ASM International will bestow its most prestigious honors upon 15 leaders in materials science and engineering at MS+T 2011, the Materials Science and Technology conference in Columbus, Ohio, on Oct. 18. The awards recognize lifetime achievement or breakthroughs in understanding and use of materials such as metals, ceramics, polymers and nanomaterials.

Analog - rather than digital - circuits could enable models of biological systems that are more efficient, more accurate and easier to build.

Arun Majumdar, Director of the Department of Energy's Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E), today announced 60 cutting-edge research projects aimed at dramatically improving how the U.S. produces and uses energy.

Researchers from TU Delft and VU University Amsterdam in the Netherlands have demonstrated that the size of a metal alloy nanoparticle influences the speed with which hydrogen gas is released when stored in a metal hydride. The smaller the size of the nanoparticle, the greater the speed at which the hydrogen gas makes its way to the fuel cell.

Nanotech Security Corp. has reached a major milestone in authentication and anti-counterfeiting security technology developed by replicating nano-scale structures similar to those found on the wings of the iridescent Morpho Butterfly.

Auf der Tagung "Nanotechnologie in Forschung und Anwendung - Ein Update fuer Entscheider und Interessierte" der Aktionslinie Hessen-Nanotech des Hessischen Wirtschaftsministeriums wurde das Potenzial der Nanotechnologie fuer Fortschritt und Wirtschaft in Hessen deutlich.

Scientists have demonstrated a new way to decrease zinc oxide's thermal conductivity without reducing its electrical conductivity. The innovation involves adding minute amounts of aluminum to zinc oxide, and processing the materials in a microwave oven.

Porous form of magnesium borohydride can store hydrogen.

A team from the National University of Singapore's Nanoscience and Nanotechnology Initiative (NUSNNI), led by principle investigator Dr Xie Xian Ning, has developed the world's first energy-storage membrane.

Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today announced that New York State has entered into agreements providing for investments valued at a total of $4.4 billion over the next five years from five leading international companies to create the next generation of computer chip technology.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have not yet met commercial expectations from a decade ago, and now hot on its heels is graphene. Graphene is considered a hot candidate for applications such as computers, displays, photovoltaics, and flexible electronics. The biggest opportunity for both materials is in printed and potentially printed electronics. In a comparably short time a large amount of graphene materials have become commercially available contributing to further advancements and application development. At a fraction of the weight and cost of CNTs, graphene may displace carbon nanotubes and even indium tin oxide in some applications. Flexible, see-through displays may be the one application that finally puts graphene into the commercial spotlight.

Nanometer-sized bubbles containing the gases hydrogen and oxygen can apparently combust spontaneously, although nothing happens in larger bubbles. For the first time, researchers have demonstrated this spontaneous combustion.

Combining carbon dioxide sorbents with gold nanoparticle catalysts makes manufacturing ultrapure hydrogen gas easier than ever.

Advanced electronics beckon thanks to self-assembling templates that allow the creation of nanoscale features on silicon wafers.

Similarities between the electronic states of molecules and the optical properties of gold nanostructures aid the development of new photonic devices.
