3D printed membranes have faster water flow than conventional filters

A 3D-printing facility to manufacture a new type of water treatment membrane. Unlike conventional membrane-manufacturing processes that use acids to make polymers porous that function as filters, Nano Sun 3D-prints millions of nanofibers layered on top of each other, compressed into a thin membrane.

Brain stimulation decreases intent to commit assault

Research shows that using minimally invasive electrical currents on the prefrontal cortex can reduce the desire to carry out physical and sexual assault and increase the perception that such violence is morally wrong.
