Surgeons Combine Heat, Chemistry to Bolster Anti-Cancer Drugs
In efforts to boost the effectiveness of anti-cancer drugs, a new method called intra-peritoneal hyperthermic chemotherapy works by flushing a heated chemotherapy drug through tissue surrounding a ... > more -
Environmental Engineers Detect Turbines' Turbulence Effects
Wind farms may have an impact on local weather patterns. As environmental engineers have discovered, wind farm propellers create a lot of turbulence in their wake, mixing air up and down with effects ... > more -

Computer Scientists Invent Typing System for Persons with Disabilities
A new system makes typing easier for persons with disabilities. Invented by computer science student Jake Wobbrock, EdgeWrite is a typing method that uses edges of a square template to guide a PDA ... > more -
Metallurgical Engineers Introduce Stronger, Lighter Steel
New steel technologies are offering better looks, performance and protection for cars. To make new steel alloys, metallurgical engineers are mixing different kinds of metals like nickel, with iron ... > more -
Electrical Engineering Student Designs Early-Warning System for Harmful Gases
Respirators save lives for the first responders who wear them, but their cartridges need to be changed often. Without knowing it, users could be inhaling deadly gases. Electrical engineering student ... > more -
Ergonomists Measure Benefits of Keyboard for Smaller Hands
A new, smaller-sized piano keyboard helps smaller players conquer complex piano pieces -- without missing a note traditional-size keyboards are too big for many pianists, causing pain and injury. The ... > more -
Physicist Calls for Airline Industry to Educate Workers about Radiation Levels
At the high altitudes and latitudes commercial airlines fly, crews are subjected to higher-than-normal radiation levels from the sun and cosmic rays. Physicist Robert Barish believes airline crew ... > more -
Mechanical Engineering Students Develop High-Altitude Reconnaissance Airships
On a shoestring, and with off-the-shelf components, students are designing prototypes of robotic blimp that could one day be used by the Pentagon. Cheaper than spy satellites, blimps can hover in ... > more -
Vascular Surgeons Lower Blood Pressure with Implanted Device
A new cell phone-sized implant can keep blood pressure in check from within the chest, just like a pacemaker controls heartbeats. When the device detects a rise in pressure, it sends electrical ... > more -
Biomedical Engineers use Fluorescence Spectroscopy Inside Coronary Arteries
So-called vulnerable plaque is the most dangerous type of build-up in the coronary arteries. A new technique, called laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy, uses fiber optics to determine what kind ... > more
