The MetaGait rehabilitation device, with its innovative combination of hardware (walk stimulation device) and software (virtual reality games), makes rehabilitation less stressful and more effective.

HOW A REACTIVE SYSTEMS APPROACH MAY LEAD TO FULL DYNAMIC MODELS OF MULTICELLULAR ORGANISMS One-day experiments on living beings will be, to a large extent, substi-tuted by interactive simulations on computers. A decade ago, computer scientist David Harel, winner of the Israel Prize, the ACM Software System Award, the Emet…

I saw that people were being left behind by genomics, I left academia to used lessons from the innovation space to change this. To do this our team is building a doctor/patient focused genome browser.

In our first MAKERTHON OWL- OPEN.PUBLIC.PLACES from 5-7 June 2020, 4 institutions from science, economy, policy making and society invited 60 scientists and creative minds from all generations and backgrounds to design and prototype innovative ideas for streets and squares, churches and museums, parks and playgrounds in times of Corona…

CRISPR-Cas9 is best known for genome editing, yet it derives from immune systems in bacteria. We discovered that the RNAs that guide DNA cutting by Cas9 can come from other RNAs in the cell. We learned how to dictate which RNAs become guide RNAs, thereby allowing us to connect an…

We are a non-profit, independent, creative digital science communication platform. We create social network based content that is entertaining, rigorous and informative. Our work focuses on making interesting what is important, science. We like to think of Shots de Ciencia as a machine that takes in scientific papers or other…

How the Neuroscience of Sound, Language and Music Shapes Human Communication Communication through sound is an everyday miracle. Spoken language reaches the listener’s ear as soundwaves that our auditory system transforms into brainwaves. But merely decoding sound from the environment is insufficient to guarantee that its meaning will be understood.…

Planckton is a scientific written and video blog. The goal is to simplify, popularize and explain various scientific topics that are hard to understand for your average person. We focus on more complex topics and new advances in science which are hardly covered by any popular media.   Tags: Citizen…

Tianqi Huang is addressing the unsustainable and energy-intensive methods of pond and lake water treatment by proposing the use of a PEM Ozone water generator in ecological restoration. This solution, demonstrated in projects in China, offers advantages in cost, energy consumption, and long-term sustainability compared to traditional methods like MBR…

In this Falling Walls Breakthrough Conversation, digital participants had the chance to engage in a live conversation with Ting Xu. She talked about her role as Professor of Chemistry and Materials Science and Engineering at Berkeley University, her groundbreaking work on accelerating biodegradation of plastics and her hopes for the…
