Patient care can be hampered by a lack of diagnostic equipment. The techniques needed to run certain assays can be prohibitively expensive, difficult to use, or maintain. New research can help change ...

Biomedical engineers at Duke University have developed an entirely new approach to building point-of-care diagnostic devices that only use gravity to transport, mix and otherwise manipulate the liquid ...

Astrophysicists talk a lot about gravitational lensing, one of the more fun aspects of light’s infamous particle-wave duality. The phenomenon shows, in predictable and measurable ways, how the tiny ...

A three foot tall instrument containing six miles of coiled fiber optic cable can now detect gravity using light. Dr. Enbang Li, a senior lecturer at the University of Wollongong, designed and built ...
