Scientists found that by injecting skin cells with DNA proteins and a cocktail of molecules they could turn them into blood cells.
It means that patients needing transfusions – such as those with cancer and leukaemia – could be given perfectly mat
Stimulating the brain with a very low electric current can enhance a person's maths ability for up to six months, British neuroscientists said. Researchers demonstrated that electrical stimulation of the brain improved performance in a series of math

Strands that are too short or long form self-protected motifs,” says Dr. Yara Yingling, an assistant professor of materials science and engineering at NC State and co-author of a paper describing the research. That means that the strands bond to each
"From day one, I thought about the hologram of Princess Leia and whether it can be brought out of science fiction," says Nasser Peyghambarian, an optical scientist at the University of Arizona in Tucson, who has been trying for several years to dev
