Metal-organic frameworks, better known as MOFs, are among the most intensely studied materials for addressing major environmental challenges. Their highly ordered, ultra-porous architecture enables applications ranging from CO2 capture and air or water purification to […]
Princeton researchers have combined brain cells and advanced electronics into a single 3D device that can be programmed to recognize patterns using computational techniques. Past attempts at using brain cells to do computation have relied […]
The security of every nation faces an increasingly severe and frequent threat: disruptions to nature. According to Bradley J. Cardinale, professor in the Department of Ecosystem Science and Management in the Penn State College of […]
Consumer trust in smart technologies—like Amazon’s Alexa or Ring’s video doorbells—may rely on more than just the technology. It may also depend on a person’s political beliefs. New research from the University of New Hampshire […]
The relationships human societies have with animals aren’t fixed, but vary according to era, culture, territory and customs.This post was originally published on this site
As quantum computers advance, they are expected to be able to break tried-and-true security schemes that currently keep most sensitive data secure from attackers. Scientists and policymakers are working to design and implement post-quantum cryptography […]
When a knot lets go, it doesn’t just fall apart. It snaps. That simple observation led Penn Engineers to rethink what a knot can do. Instead of treating it as something that holds tension, they […]
Americans are more likely to turn to authoritarian leaders when jobs are being lost due to offshoring than they are when job losses result from automation, an international research team has found. This is despite […]
Just as major global powers are retreating from climate finance commitments, a new empirical study provides, for the first time, evidence of a direct link between climate finance and a lower risk of resource-related conflict […]
Trying to book a flight right now can feel absurd. Qantas and Virgin Australia are warning that higher fuel costs and disruption linked to the Middle East conflict are putting pressure on fares and forcing […]
