• Silicon Nanoparticles for Nanosurgery: Master’s Student Publishes an Article in Nano Letters

  … raising. The researchers started using this method because it allows “burning” cancer cells without damaging other systems of the organism. To make nanoparticles affect certain cells and stop them from randomly moving, which can damage the immune system, one covers them with the special matter. Cellular receptors detect the matter, which help nanoparticles join t…

• Want to protect your data? Know how to hack it: what happens at a cybersecurity competition

  …ed a dedicated server with a set of vulnerable software services that they had to keep secure and functional. Every so often these services received from the jury a package containing private data that serves as a “flag”. Any team that could find a weakness in a competitor’s service could steal that data, which means that these vulnerabilities, which are based in lar…

• HelloDNA: Learning to Align DNA sequences While Playing Tetris

  …n it correctly. The better the alignment, the more points the user gets. A “read” is a fragment of a DNA molecule, which is read from a section of the DNA. There are certain devices which read these fragments but sometimes errors occur. Also, a discrepancy can arise, for example, due to mutations. Thus, for various reasons, this fragment might not fit with the…
