New method allows scientists to 3D-print structures within cells
Researchers have developed a way to 3D print custom micrometer-sized structures directly into the interior of living cells.

A study in Economic Inquiry reveals how changes in immigration attitudes in an area spread to other localities and highlights the role of media language and social networks in shaping political attitudes.
Cities around the world are planting more trees and creating new parks to combat rising temperatures. But a decade-long study of Northern Taiwan's cities reveals a troubling paradox: more green space doesn't always mean less heat risk, and the heat adaptation benefits of urban greening are not reaching everyone equally.
A new paper in Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry finds that common medications used for flea and tick control in dogs and cats may pose a significant environmental risk for insects in the wild.
The detail of the European Union's long-awaited accession to the European Convention on Human Rights is like a "three-dimensional puzzle" because of the several vital and interlocking elements which need to be agreed, a new study suggests.
New Space is a term now commonly used around the rocketry and satellite industries to indicate a new, speed focused model of development that takes its cue from the Silicon Valley mindset of "move fast and (hopefully don't) break things." Given that several of the founders of rocketry and satellite companies have a Silicon Valley background, that probably shouldn't be a surprise, but the mindset has resulted in an exponential growth in the number of satellites in orbit, and also an exponential decrease in the cost of getting them to orbit.
Imagine a fully automated 3D printer suspended in midair, churning out crucial components for use at home and abroad.
A new study reveals how entrepreneurs can win support for their ideas from audiences who never speak up. The research shows that the way entrepreneurs engage with a few vocal participants in online discussions can crucially shape how the larger, silent audience perceives and supports their ideas.
Prof. Gal Shmuel of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at the Technion—Israel Institute of Technology has developed an innovative approach that enables precise control of heat conduction in ways that do not occur naturally.
When indoor air pollution makes the news in western countries, it often feels like a local issue. One week it focuses on wood-burning stoves. Another it is gas cookers or the question of whether people should open their windows more often in winter.
