Future explorers on Mars would just need to apply pressure to compact the soil—the equivalent of a blow from a hammer—to make bricks

Columbia Engineers use ice-templating to control electrolyte structure in lithium batteries; solid-state is non-flammable, non-toxic and flexible with longer battery life

Discovery could lead to new treatments for patients after a heart attack

FSU researchers Lara Perez-Felkner and Roxanne Hughes  are helping to lay a research-based foundation that might finally yield headway on this troubling issue

The four-story building contains 13,200 square feet of laboratories, offices, and conference rooms

Material could mean ceramic textiles, improved jet engine blades, 3-D printed ceramics, and better batteries

Metal 3D printing has enormous potential to revolutionize modern manufacturing

New discovery should give chemists and industrial engineers a target size for creating silver wires that could lead to the first foldable phones

Researchers have integrated power-generating photovoltaic cells into their electronic skin for the first time

Fresh insights into living cells, brighter video projectors, and more accurate medical tests are just three of the innovations that could result from a new way of fabricating lasers

Specially designed nanofiber solution easily converts non-woven mesh into see-through air filters that clean air, improve air flow, and offer UV protection

The scaffolds can then be primed and seeded with human stem cells to optimize their growth in the lab dish and, ultimately, create novel biomedical implants
