Improving Structural Engineering with Earthquake Simulator
To develop designs that can survive extreme seismic events, and to devise retrofit solutions for older homes, civil engineers who specialize in structural design test realistic models of homes in ... > more -
An Interactive, 3D Voyage into Human Anatomy
Anatomists and biochemists have created a detailed virtual view of vital organs in the human body, down to the level of tissues and cells. The software recreates the visualization from a combination ... > more -

Medical Physicists Improve Vision for Radiation Therapy
Radiation therapy requires visualizing exactly where a tumor is located, usually from looking at hundreds of different X-ray , CT or PET scan images. A new system patches together 2D images into one ... > more -
Materials Chemists Apply Photonic Crystals to Forensics
Photonic crystals -- materials with precise patterns of gaps that make them reflect only selected wavelengths of light -- could soon replace the traditional ink-based fingerprinting. In a new ... > more -
Mechanical Engineers' Device Helps Electricity Conservation
Smart meters are small computers that provide real-time information on how much electricity is being used by each customer and when, and can relay information back to the head office over the very ... > more -
Human Factors Research Suggests Ways to Keep Drivers Alert
The human factor -- such as the lag in reaction to unforeseen events -- is the primary cause of road accidents. Researchers are now experimenting with WiFi technology to make cars talk to each ... > more -
Biochemists Develop Diagnostic Tool to ID Strains Faster
Biochemists have developed a new tool that can identify a strain of influenza in hours, instead of the usual days or weeks, potentially speeding up the development of new vaccines. A sample of the ... > more -
Doppler Sonography Helps Psychologists Measure Attention Levels
Psychologists are finding out that even when people try to focus on a task they tend to lose concentration within 40 minutes, and sometimes as little as 10 minutes. The studies are based on a new ... > more -
MRI Can Replace CT Scans, Reducing Cancer Risks
New studies by radiologists have shown that MRI can be just as accurate as CT scans at helping radiologists diagnose pathologies such as cancer, cysts and kidney stones -- while carrying less risk, ... > more -
Computer Scientists Develop Portable Evidence-Gathering Tool
Investigators on a crime scene can now use a new tool for collecting chemical or biological samples. The sampler gun collects samples on a cotton pad -- eliminating direct contact with anything ... > more
