Gene-editing breakthrough in battle against cancer

In what is believed to be a world first, researchers have cured cervical cancer in mice using CRISPR gene-editing technology.

2016

New light harvesting potentials

Researchers have discovered significant new potentials for light harvesting through narrowing the bandgap of titania and graphene quantum dots.

Technology set to personalise tendon and tissue injury rehab

A revolution in the treatment and rehabilitation of muscle/tendon injuries is on its way with the development of a ground-breaking new intelligent technology.

Dip coating to solve perovskite moisture sensitivity

Scientists from China and Australia have designed a water-resistant perovskite solar cell that can operate in a humid environment and maintain its efficiency over three weeks.
