Technology and Engineering

Science, technological innovation, and farmer ingenuity could, in principle, reshape food systems faster than ever. Yet real-world change often stalls...

A new microscopy approach is turning phase imaging into a more practical, “background-free” task by merging adaptive optics with surface...

Biodiversity doesn’t boost ecosystem productivity in the same way everywhere when climate extremes hit. A new global synthesis draws on...

A new “optical singularity protractor” could help laboratories measure rotation with unprecedented sensitivity, using a neuromorphic sensing approach rather than...

Annual Reviews, the nonprofit organization focused on synthesizing knowledge for the progress of science, has announced the acquisition of Underline...

When the brain coordinates movement, it continually compares motor commands with sensory feedback. Small mismatches—visuo-motor errors—can normally be corrected only...

Researchers have unveiled a spin-multiplexed approach to point spread function (PSF) engineering that could dramatically improve how optical microscopes discriminate...

Daydreaming has been a promising step toward making Hopfield networks—brain-inspired associative memory models—both more capable and more robust. Originally inspired...

Plastic pollution is increasingly recognized as a planet-wide stressor rather than a problem confined to coasts. Researchers estimate that roughly...

Scientists at The University of Manchester report that even modest temperature variations during molten metal deposition (MMD) can reshape the...
