Nanomachines Operate at Human Scale Thanks to 3D Printing

Nanomachines are already useful for delivering medication and serving as computer memories at the nanometer scale. But thanks to advance 3D printing techniques, researchers at Dartmouth College have found a way to make nanomachines useful at the human scale. “Up until now, harnessing the mechanical work of nanomachines has been extremely difficult,” says Chenfeng Ke,

New Soft Electronic Textiles Could Offer Advanced Protection for Soldiers and Emergency Personnel

New technology that harnesses electronic signals in a smart fabric could lead to advanced hazardous-material gear that protects against toxic chemicals, according to research from Dartmouth College. In the research, the chemistry team of Katherine Mirica and Merry Smith describe the creation of new smart fabrics — named SOFT, for Self-Organized Framework on Textiles —
