When Ben Rosenfeld started working as a residential assistant at a Stanford University dorm, he encountered 77 freshmen possessed by an “all-consuming” force. His new gig coincided with the release of ...

New research has found when plant leaves physically touch each other, they seem to form a biological signalling network to warn each other about the upcoming stress. This can boost their resilience to ...

Q: How reliable are plant identification apps? A: I’ve tested several plant identification apps and have found them surprisingly, but not completely, accurate. You simply snap a photo of the plant in ...

Figure 1: NICT's 7.4 km, 2 Tbit/s horizontal propagation experiment (April 2025). The ST terminal was used as the transmitter and the FX terminal as the receiver. The terminals exchanged pseudo-random ...

Summary: Neurons can rapidly rebalance their communication using a structural signal rather than electrical activity, overturning long-held assumptions about how synapses maintain stability. When ...

Biomedical engineers at Duke University have demonstrated a new nerve stimulation technique that relieves constipation. By stimulating the sacral nerve using a pattern of electrical bursts, the team ...

Abstract: Ensuring information security has long been a critical challenge in wireless networks. Due to its strong confidentiality, wireless communication using modulated thermal noise has recently ...
