Researchers use nanotechnology to engineer ligament replacements

Researchers created a tri-component, synthetic graft for reconstructing torn anterior cruciate ligaments.

A repulsive material

In a world-first achievement, scientists have developed a new hydrogel whose properties are dominated by electrostatic repulsion, rather than attractive interactions.

Review of studies on exotic superfluids in spin-orbit coupled Fermi gases

Scientists have reviewed the recent theoretical studies on various novel pairing superfluid phases in spin-orbit coupled ultracold Fermi gases. They showed that spin-orbit coupling modifies the single-particle spectra, which gives rise to exotic few-body correlations and interesting pairing states.

Introducing Graphene Study 2015

As part of its extensive education and outreach activities, Europe's Graphene Flagship will soon stage a second Graphene Study week. This will take place from 23-28 March 2015 in Kaprun, Austria.
