Liquid to gel to bone: Temperature-sensitive gelling scaffolds made to regenerate craniofacial bone

Posted: 11 Dec 2013 03:53 PM PST

Bioengineers have developed a hydrogel scaffold for craniofacial bone tissue regeneration that starts as a liquid, solidifies into a gel in the body and liquefies again for removal.

New system allows for high-accuracy, through-wall, 3-D motion tracking; Technology could revolutionize gaming, fall detection

Posted: 11 Dec 2013 10:18 AM PST

Imagine playing a video game like Call of Duty or Battlefield and having the ability to lead your virtual army unit while moving freely throughout your house. Gaming could become this realistic, thanks to new technology that allows for highly accurate, 3-D motion tracking. The new system, dubbed "WiTrack," uses radio signals to track a person through walls and obstructions, pinpointing her 3-D location to within 10 to 20 centimeters -- about the width of an adult hand.

The future availability of carbon capture and storage will be pivotal in reaching ambitious climate targets, according to a new comprehensive study of future energy technologies.

Announcing project AGORA: Ambitious comparison of computer simulations of galaxy evolution

Posted: 11 Dec 2013 06:38 AM PST

A long-standing difficulty with supercomputer simulations of the evolution of galaxies has been getting consistent results among different codes (programs) and with actual observations, so simulated galaxies look like real galaxies. But reproducibility is one of the most elementary principles in scientific methods. An ambitious new multiyear project AGORA aims to understand and resolve such inconsistencies.

Efficient removal of uranium, other heavy metals from water

Posted: 10 Dec 2013 04:19 AM PST

A new and efficient method for the removal of uranium and other heavy metals from water has been developed. A Finnish chemicals industry company, has purchased the rights on the invention, and will introduce the method to the commercial markets. Binding metal ions to a solid material, the CH Collector method can be used within the mining industry, and also in the removal of emissions caused by the chemicals and metals processing industries.
