Bacteria As Art
Biophysicists are growing
Petri dishes of different
species of bacteria in order
to develop new antibiotics.
The bacteria are subjected
to different temperatures
and have limited food
sources inside the dish.

New Surgery For Fido's Knees
Veterinary orthopedic
surgeons developed a
procedure to fix cranial
cruciate ligament (CCL)
deficiencies in dogs. A
method adapted from human
ankle surgeries, the

Year 'Round Bloom
A horticulturist created a
hybrid lily lookalike that
expresses a lavender-lilac
color, strong and upright
stems, and winter hardiness.
In gardens it blooms until
the first hard freeze in the
fall in the northern United

Veterinarians And Microbiologists Develop Antimicrobial Agent That Works Under Water
Veterinarians added a bioadhesive to an existing antimicrobial agent in order to make it an effective protective agent for aquatic animals such as whales. The adhesive was originally developed to ... > more -
Biochemists And Engineers Create Fast-acting Pathogen Sensor
Engineers invented a device to bring air samples into contact with genetically engineered biosensors in the effort to detect dangerous biological agents. The technology uses multiple collections of ... > more -
Civil Engineers Design Walk Through Butterfly Museum Exhibit
Structural engineers created a cocoon-like structure to hold butterflies and keep them flying around visitors. Low ceilings keep the insects at visitor-level, while screened-off ventilation systems ... > more -
Soil Scientists Restore Marshes To Protect Coastal Ecology
Soil scientists spread material dredged from shipping channels over shore areas to help rebuild marsh areas. Wetlands along the shore protect the land from storm surges, create habitat for wildlife, ... > more -
Mechanical Engineers Reinforce Flimsy Fishing Lures
Materials scientists and engineers added reinforcements to flexible plastic fishing lures to keep them from snapping off their hooks. Braiding microfibers into the lures with techniques used in ... > more -
Engineers Design Two Piece Magnetic Aquarium Pump
Chemical engineers developed a pump that splits into two pieces, a propeller for the interior of the aquarium and a motor for the exterior, connected across the glass wall by strong magnets. The ... > more -
Biologists Develop Machine To Remove Viruses From Blood
Infectious disease experts designed a machine called the hemopurifier. It works much like a dialysis machine, using thin fibers to capture and remove viruses from the blood it filters. The machine ... > more -
Marine Biologists Work To Protect Seahorses By Developing A Breeding Program
Marine biologists, worried that regular harvesting of wild seahorses may threaten the creature with extinction, have begun breeding them in home aquariums. Caring for seahorses requires a three-step ... > more -
Poultry Nutritionists Remove Pollutants From Watersheds By Adding Enzyme To Chicken Feed
Poultry nutritionists add an enzyme called phytase to chicken feed in an effort to decrease the amount of phosphorus that passes through them undigested. Research revealed the maximum amount of ... > more -
