With these models, researchers hope to gain a better understanding of how the brain and neural networks work

Similar to origami, the more well-known art of paper-folding, kirigami involves cutting in addition to folding

In addition to changing how researchers can work with light, this new coupling method has the potential to change how and when cancer is diagnosed

University of Illinois researcher Kyle Smith continues to build on his highly praised work to develop new methods of deionizing saltwater

Illinois and SLAC researchers use a new technique to probe high-temperature superconductivity

Researchers applied a technique using 3-D X-ray tomography of an electrode to better understand what is happening on the inside of a lithium ion battery

Although most wing shapes used today create turbulent wake vortices, wing geometrics can be designed to reduce or eliminate wingtip vortices almost entirely

Putting a hole in the center of the donut—a mid-nineteenth-century invention—allows the deep-fried pastry to cook evenly, inside and out. As it turns out, the hole in the center of the donut also holds answers for a type of more efficient and reliable quantum information teleportation, a critical goal for quantum information science.
