NAPLIFE: Advancing nuclear fusion with nanotechnology
Nuclear fusion has long been discussed for its potential as an abundant source of energy. Yet owing to the immense technological challenges involved, the global rollout of the technology still […]
Nanotechnology and metal-organic frameworks for carbon capture
Greenhouse gases pose a major environmental threat that needs to be tackled. Nanotechnology offers great potential, with novel nanomaterials such as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) being strong candidates for the adsorption […]
Nanotechnology provides new methods for oral delivery of peptides
One aspect of successful drug development is efficient delivery to affected organs. Most drugs are taken by mouth, travel to the intestines, are absorbed into the bloodstream, and circulated to […]
Nanosafety: Looking at the toxicology of nanomaterials
Nanomaterials are small particles that can be found everywhere, including in the air we breathe. Nanosafety is an emerging area of research dealing with the effect of nanomaterials on health […]
Nanoparticles as Trojan horses: A safe and effective way to deliver oncolytic viruses to treat all cancers
Advanced cancer often comes with a lack of treatment options. Immunotherapies like cancer-killing viruses – oncolytic viruses (OVs) – are becoming increasingly popular but are currently limited by their inability […]
Self-assembled nanomaterials fight viral outbreaks
Developing efficient ways to treat viral infections and control their spread in humans and animals has become a worldwide priority, especially since the COVID-19 pandemic. Traditional approaches to creating vaccines […]
The cold, dark secrets of the Universe in few-body physics
Understanding fundamental processes in physics, particularly physics beyond the Standard Model, is no easy task. Experiments and theories looking for new general theories to describe many of the phenomena that […]
How electrons and phonons promote heat transfer in material systems
Miniaturisation is one of the key features of current and future technologies for information processing and control. However, the ability to reduce the size of an electronic component is limited […]
