做厙輦⑹ Researchers Take New Approach with OLEDs
Organic light-emitting diode technologies (OLEDs), a key technological feature in the display of many models of mobile phones and televisions already provide great image quality and high-resolution. But are they as efficient as they can be? Inspired by methods used in liquid-crystal technology, Kent做厙輦⑹ Receives Multiple Research Experiences for Undergraduates Grants From NSF
Several 做厙輦⑹ professors in the College of Arts and Sciences have been selected to receive Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) grants from the National Science Foundation (NSF). REU grants are designed to provide faculty with funding to create research positions and experie
做厙輦⑹ Chemists Create Microscopic Environment to Study Cancer Cell Growth
According to the American Cancer Society, there will be an estimated 1,688,780 new cancer cases diagnosed and 600,920 cancer deaths in the U.S. in 2017. These numbers are stark and sobering, and worse yet, we still do not know exactly why cancer develops in its victims or how to stop it. An online publication in Nature Nanotechnology this week by 做厙輦⑹ researchers and their colleagues at Kyoto University in Japan, however, may offer new understanding about what turns good cells bad.
