A new self-powered, wristwatch-style health monitor invented by researchers at the University of California, Irvine can keep track of a wearer's pulse and wirelessly communicate with a nearby smartphone or tablet – without needing an external power source or a battery.
A dependable and eco-friendly method of producing electricity is solar photovoltaics. Perovskite-on-silicon tandem solar modules made industrially, supplied by Oxford PV, have been examined for the first time in a study of their lifecycle environmental effects.
Particle Size and Shape are becoming more of an integral part of process control in many industries. It can be identifying agglomerate particles in metal powders for 3D printing to monitor and quantify crystal growth of ...
ClexBio, a Norway-based startup, is teaming up with CSEM to develop the world’s first machine to grow tissue-engineered human veins in the lab. The joint project has received over two million Swiss francs in funding from the Research Council of Norway and aims to produce an entirely new type of vein graft that could improve the lives of the millions of people suffering from deep venous insufficiency.
The EU-funded macQsimal project, coordinated by CSEM as part of the EU’s FET Flagship on Quantum Technologies program, has now drawn to a close, after leading to some promising discoveries.
