In the desert areas of Namibia, Oman, and Saudi Arabia, research work has revealed unusual structures that are probably due ...

Anyone at Purdue University that works with Risk Group 2 or higher biological agents (BSL 2 or higher laboratory), rDNA materials, and unfixed human fluids, cell lines, and tissue should participate.

If the explanatory report mentioned research on biological materials of human origin, this field has been subject to a very thorough and specific examination that led to the elaboration of a ...

DARPA scientists are exploring ways to grow massive biological objects, such as telescope antennas or huge nets to snag ...

DARPA wants space structures that are grown rather than built, and the building blocks for these new structures are living ...

Soft materials include liquids, polymers, foams, gels, colloids, granular materials, as well as most soft biological materials. Research now demonstrates that solution-processable polymer ...

and synthetic and biological polyelectrolytes as well as segregation and interface adsorption in multicomponent complex fluids. The Richards Laboratory studies the properties of soft materials and ...

A team of researchers created Morpho, an open-source programmable environment that enables researchers and engineers to conduct shape optimization and design for soft materials. Applications can be ...

Historically, researchers have tested the safety and toxicity of chemicals by using biological assays, or bioassays. These tests involve exposing nonhuman animals – often rodents such as rats or mice ...

The Materials and Biological Physics Group studies a wide range of problems in soft matter, from understanding the fundamental physical principles that underpin life, to the practical applications of ...
