Researchers say e-cigarettes and similar devices are associated with a higher risk for cavities — ScienceDaily
A vaping habit could end up leading to a tarnished smile, and more frequent visits to the dentist. Research by faculty from Tufts University School of Dental Medicine found patients…
Heart failure: Black patients less likely to get devices and transplants they need, study finds
CNN — There’s growing evidence that Black heart failure patients are less likely to get advanced therapies than White patients. A study published Wednesday in the journal Circulation: Heart Failure…
A new method uses optics to accelerate machine-learning computations on smart speakers and other low-power connected devices — ScienceDaily
Ask a smart home device for the weather forecast, and it takes several seconds for the device to respond. One reason this latency occurs is because connected devices don’t have…
Engineers develop stable devices that don’t require expensive iridium — ScienceDaily
Creating a hydrogen economy is no small task, but Rice University engineers have discovered a method that could make oxygen evolution catalysis in acids, one of the most challenging topics…
Researchers demonstrate new, more energy-efficient devices using gallium nitride — ScienceDaily
Engineering researchers have created new high-power electronic devices that are more energy efficient than previous technologies. The devices are made possible by a unique technique for “doping” gallium nitride (GaN)…
Flexible waterproof sensors can control smart devices, such as lamps, music players — ScienceDaily
Wearable human-machine interface devices, HMIs, can be used to control machines, computers, music players, and other systems. A challenge for conventional HMIs is the presence of sweat on human skin.…
