There’s been a bit of a rush of pocket/ USB digital microscopes recently, but none can hold a candle to this development from the clever chaps at Caltech. They’ve done a neat bit of thinking and ...

University researchers have developed a high-resolution microscope that is small enough to sit on a computer chip. The tiny microscope has the magnifying power of a top-quality optical microscope and ...

(A) Exploded view and combined view of the multilayer microfluidic chip. (B) Detailed dimensional view of culture medium channels and tissue chambers. (C) Multilayer microfluidic chips fabricated by ...

Chemists have created a device -- using little more than paper and sticky tape -- that can precisely separate liquids for further medical or environmental analysis. The scientists write in a ...

Stephen Quake, a bioengineer and applied physicist at Stanford University, has always been interested in the interface between physics and biology. During his work at the California Institute of ...

TL;DR: College students will compete in a unique sperm race using microfluidic chips that simulate the reproductive system, promoting male health awareness. Backed by $1.5 million in funding, the ...

The chips that datacenters use to run the latest AI breakthroughs generate much more heat than previous generations of silicon. Anybody whose phone or laptop has overheated knows that electronics ...

One of the major reasons why AI data centers are sucking up so much power is the need to cool processors that run very hot. But Microsoft Corp. is trying out a possible solution: sending fluid ...
