Interdisciplinary approach leads to breakthroughs in bio nanotechnology research
Focusing on interdisciplinary research is now leading to breakthroughs in bio nanotechnology research. A new method for drug development has become a reality. Four years ago, the biologist Karen Martinez almost didn’t believe in the research project herself when she started with her team working on it, but now it has been proven. Together with colleagues at the Nano-Science Center, ... Read More »
Nanotechnology improves hydrogen storage and delivery
Researchers developed a new, low-cost technology that makes hydrogen fuel safer to store and use, inching clean fuel vehicles closer to reality. Coaxial electrospinning is a new technology developed by Cella Energy, a spin-off from Britain’s Rutherford Appleton Laboratory. Also called electrospraying, the process absorbs and encapsulates hydrogen gas in a microscopic sponge formed by nano-fiber hydrides. The plastic beads ... Read More »
