Flexible Electronics and Sensors: Researchers Develop Improved Method for Copper Micropattern Printing
…f them require expensive equipment and large quantities of solvents in order to cover the material with a copper layer. All of this isn’t economically beneficial for small-batch production. Moreover, these methods limit manufacturers in the combinations of surface materials and metals used in printing – in different combinations, these materials have different adhesi…

ITMO Student Uses Science to Promote Healthy Living
…nts solved various cases in pairs, asked each other about their food preferences and habits, and discussed them in groups. In one of the classes, we held a debate about dietary restrictions. Students prepared their talking points in advance and presented their views on the topic. Moreover, I created a special digital platform with tasks for self-examination, a questi…

ITMO Scientists Develop Nanostructured Temperature Indicator Based on Carbon Dots and Nanocellulose
…e, the researchers were able to produce a cheaper and more precise tool for identifying temperature shifts. Moreover, the water-dimethyl sulfoxide solvent allows the new device to function in very low temperatures and in the wide range of -68°C to +19°C. An unexpected discovery Interestingly, the researchers initially weren’t planning to develop a temperatu…

How Sport Affects Our Cognitive Skills
… How does physical activity affect cognitive function? Which cognitive skills are improved by sports? What else do sports help us improve? Are sports beneficial at any age? How long does it take to see results from exercise? Can we trust these studies? Does an active lifestyle have a similar effect to sports? How does physical activity affect co…

ITMO Scientists Design a Model to Protect Quantum Computing From Disorder
…system (1 – on, 0 – off), a quantum bit is able to enter a superposition of both these states. However, the spread of the parameters in the system that inevitably follows the production of qubits staggers the development of quantum processors. Simply put, quantum bits have various physical characteristics and the difference of these parameters between the fabricat…

How Optional Courses Can Instill a Love Of Science
… course includes topics that are hardly covered at university yet are crucial for overall understanding. For instance, I devoted one of my classes to the biochemistry of muscle contractions, which students are unlikely to fully understand without attending a university lecture on the bioenergetics of muscular activity. Thanks to my course, they will be able to brush …
