Although still regarded by some as an information "cesspool" that spreads falsehoods and encourages polarization, the Internet and the new communications tools and social patterns it enables offer at least the promise of some relief from our TMI-induced credibility dilemma.
Recent advances in membrane technology based on microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) promise to enable the development of continuous implantable renal replacement therapy.
The "barcoding" approach holds promise to enable the sequencing of large numbers of samples, and allows for the identification of rare and novel variations in the intended loci as well as variant carrier post-sequencing.
Functional OCT promises to enable the differentiation of retinal pathologies via localized, functional retinal response or metabolic properties.
Shutl, the London-based startup that promises to enable the delivery of online purchases within minutes of sale, has secured $3.2 million in funding that it plans to put toward its upcoming debut in North America.
Here we review progress in the chemical and enzymatic synthesis, replication and evolution of unnatural nucleic acid polymers, which promises to enable the exploration of a vast sequence space not accessible to nature and deliver ligands, catalysts and materials based on this new class of biopolymers.
This integration also promises to enable the understanding of the most complex biological functions, not only in neuroscience, but also in other areas of biomedical research.
Although this deluge of complex data promises to enable the investigation of neuroscientific questions that were previously inaccessible, it is quickly overwhelming the capacity of existing tools and algorithms to extract meaningful information from the data.
The electrochemical cell offers the promise of enabling controlled alteration of the morphology and islanding phenomena on metallic surfaces.
These materials engineered with fascinating properties hold the promise of enabling low-cost, high-efficiency, smart renewable and clean energy harvesting as well as the storage, which would contribute greatly to the postfossil energy era.
