US Science Agency Debuts Startup Matchmaking Program in Taiwan | Bloomberg
The US agency tasked with driving scientific research has launched a program to connect American startups with Taiwanese peers, backing the island’s ambitions to foster key players in strategic sectors like semiconductors, AI and beyond.
Crops communicate with one another. These researchers want to listen in.
Researchers at Northeastern are designing a low-cost, low-power sensor that will detect the volatile organic chemicals given off by damaged plants.
Physicists may have accidentally discovered a new state of matter. The possibilities are endless.
Humans have been studying electric charge for thousands of years, and the results have shaped modern civilization. Our daily lives depend on electric lighting, smartphones, cars, and computers, in ways that the first individuals to take note of a static shock or a bolt of lightning could never have imagined.
Superconductor or not? They’re exploring the identity crisis of this weird quantum material.
Northeastern researchers have used a powerful computer model to probe a puzzling class of copper-based materials that can be turned into superconductors. Their findings offer tantalizing clues for a decades-old mystery, and a step forward for quantum computing.
This exotic crystal is fueling the quantum revolution
Arun Bansil, a theoretical physicist at Northeastern, has discovered new properties in the chemical element bismuth that could prevent supercomputers from frying and enable the production of low power electronics.
Northeastern University nanotechnology experts awarded patent for smart, zero-power sensors that will help fight forest, warehouse and construction site fires
Matteo Rinaldi, an associate professor of electrical and computer engineering and the director of Northeastern’s SMART Center, has come up with a clever solution for that: a smart detector that wakes itself up from ultra battery saver mode using the very flames it is engineered to detect.
