Using induced pluripotent #stemcell-derived neurons from #Alzheimer's patients, @UCSanDiego researchers say cholesteryl esters act as regulators of the protein tau, providing a new druggable target for the disease. https://t.co/Znsx74yP8R
Engineers at the @UofMaryland have created the first 3D-printed #fluidcircuit element so tiny that 10 could rest on the width of a human hair. The #diode ensures fluids move in only a single direction. @NSF https://t.co/YxNDn2I6Sj
Growing #muscle tissue on grooved platforms helps #neurons more effectively integrate with the muscle, a requirement for engineering muscle in the lab that responds and functions like muscle in the body, @Illinois_Alma researchers found in a new study. https://t.co/v15gfWvEAZ
@MIT researchers have developed a way to dramatically enhance the sensitivity of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy #NMR@snsf_ch@NIH https://t.co/lllR7yILRr
Researchers from the @UofMaryland have for the first time measured an effect that was predicted more than 40 years ago, called the #Casimirtorque. @NSF

Researchers from @MIT and elsewhere have recorded the “temporal coherence” of a #graphene qubit, marking a critical step forward for practical #quantumcomputing. https://t.co/jQF9EjScA5
With the help of novel miniature #sensors, an intl. group of biologists that included @UofMaryland Professor found that #bat species foraged socially if their #food sources were in unpredictable locations, such as insect swarms or fish schools.

Study conducted by researchers at the @Illinois_Alma, @WUSTL, and @Columbia on #nanoscale collagen fibrils reported on, previously unforeseen, reasons why #collagen is such a resilient material. @NSF@NIH

A new method co-developed by @UofMaryland assistant professor, uses the power of #machinelearning and open-access data to predict #species that could be eligible for at-risk status on the IUCN Red List. #plants
