Metasurfaces: Robust and scalable quantum photonics processors Their results hint at the possibility of paradigm-shifting optical quantum devices based not on conventional, difficult-to-scale ...

In the past, scientists have used patch-clamp or metal electrodes inserted into mature brains to record electrical activity of single neurons with high resolution. Further breakthroughs in tissue-like ...

Natural rubber, one of the world's most widely manufactured biomaterials, has been used by humans for thousands of years. Its resistance to crack growth, however, hasn't improved much for decades.

Springtails, smallbugs often found crawling through leaf litter and garden soil, are expert jumpers. Inspired by these hopping hexapods, roboticists in theHarvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering ...

Harvard researchers have mapped and catalogued more than 70,000 synaptic connections from about 2,000 rat neurons, using a silicon chip capable of recording small yet telltale synaptic signals from a ...

In the Harvard Move Lab, mannequins don jackets decorated with electronics and hanging wires. Design drawings are scattered on workbenches, and sewing machines sit among fabric-filled cubbies labeled ...

Fish can accumulate high levels of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), even far from sources of contamination, according to a new study by researchers at The Harvard John A. Paulson School of ...

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is underestimating methane emissions from landfills, urban areas and U.S. states, according to a new study led by researchers at the Harvard John A. Paulson ...

Metalenses have been used to image microscopic features of tissue and resolve details smaller than a wavelength of light. Now they are going bigger. Researchers at the Harvard John A. Paulson School ...

Researchers from the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have developed a new lithium metal battery that can be charged and discharged at least 6,000 times — more ...

Key Takeaways Harvard SEAS and Boston University researchers used a soft, wearable robotic garment to eliminate gait-freezing episodes in a Parkinson’s disease patient, enabling longer, faster strides ...
