Our body’s neural cell responses do not depend solely on electrical and chemical stimuli, which are relatively easier for analysis. Scientists have often found difficulty in studying the body’s neural ...

Laboratory tests found the so-called "nanodiscs", around 60 billionths of a metre thick, could be used to disrupt the membranes of cancer cells, causing them to self-destruct. The discs are made from ...

Disc motors are permanent-magnet stepping motors that exhibit performance comparable to that of hybrid motors. Rotors in disc motors are thin (typically less than 1-mm) discs, unlike the cylindrical ...
