Super Productive 3D Bioprinter Could Help Speed up Drug Development
A 3D printer that rapidly produces large batches of custom biological tissues could help make drug development faster and less costly. Nanoengineers developed the high-throughput bioprinting technology, which 3D prints with record speed--it can produce a 96-well array of living human tissue samples within 30 minutes. Having the ability to rapidly produce such samples could accelerate high-throughput preclinical drug screening and disease modeling.

Acoustic Ecology and Safety
One of the problems that arose in the use of electric vehicles was the noiselessness of their movement. The lack of external sound in hybrid and electric vehicles, especially at low speeds, has a negative impact on the safety of pedestrians, cyclists and people with limited mobility. People simply do not hear the approaching electric car, and this becomes unsafe for all road users.
