Scientists Develop a Graphene Matrix for Stem and Cancer Cells Growing
…ng on methods of cultivation and design of the matrix. Numerous studies showed that the substrate properties, including its surface relief, are very important for cell growth, reproduction and differentiation (a process, when equal cells turn into different types of tissues). The researchers named the graphene matrix as "GAIN" (Graphene-Augmented Inorganic Nanofibre…

IOT-OPEN.EU — the New Open Course on the Internet of Things
…ication. When you just send in data via network, it's not the same. In IoT, devices forward data to each other. And that implies using some AI that will analyze these links and take action. Among other collaborators of the IOT-OPEN.EU project are representatives from the Silesian University of Technology, Riga Technical University, Tallinn University of Techn…

…erbert A. SimonandAllen Newell. I call this model of human conscious "The Thinker": it is a simulation of the thinking process, yet the model can't show us the process of conducting actions or decision making. Let me explain why. For instance, a computer can solve the logical puzzle "Tower of Hanoi" using a hierarchy of possible steps. The puzzle is simple. There …

What a Twist: Silicon Nanoantennas Turned Light Around
…elds or by varying the intensity of incident light. In the paper, published in Laser & Photonics Reviews, the researchers designed a novel nonlinear nanoantenna can change the direction of light scattering depending on the intensity of incident wave (Fig. 1). At the heart of the proposed nanoantenna are silicon nanoparticles, which generate electron plasma under h…
