Swarms of millions of molecular sized robots get busy building nanoscale stuff
WHY THIS MATTERS IN BRIEF Molecular sized robots already exist, in nature and in the lab, but now the ones in the labs are getting smart and organised and that could change many things … Love the Exponential Future?

Scientists have visualised stress in plants for the first time
WHY THIS MATTERS IN BRIEF As these sensors become more powerful one day we’ll be able to visualise the stress crops are under at scale and intervene to save them.

Russian researchers used a common inkjet printer to print advanced Nano-Sensors
WHY THIS MATTERS IN BRIEF As we develop more nanoscale things we need to be able to keep track of them and monitor them and now we have an inexpensive way to achieve that. Researchers from ITMO University in Russia have created a new type of optical Nano-Sensor that...
