Their DNA origami device comprises a scaffold strand and a plurality of staple strands, wherein:
Want to be IronMan, Captain America, Super Woman, X-Men Mutant, etc. Well, you maybe able to.
If watching “Captain America: Civil War” this weekend revives your childhood dreams of becoming a superhero, technology may be on your side to make it happen — but science is a little more discouraging.
Science proving that Alpha males still capture their mates — glad to see how science has gone backwards.
Males who evolve in male-dominated populations become far better at securing females than those who grow up in monogamous populations, according to new research into the behaviour of fruit flies at the University of Sheffield.
The study, led by Dr Allan Debelle and Dr Rhonda Snook in the University’s Department of Animal and Plant Sciences, looked at the mating patterns of fruit flies after they evolved for 100 generations in either polyandrous populations (where several males have to compete for a single female) and monogamous populations (where each male has access to only one female).

New tech from Carnegie Mellon makes it much easier to play ‘Angry Birds’ on your wrist.
Smartwatches walk a fine line between functionality and fashion, but new SkinTrack technology from Carnegie Mellon University’s Future Interfaces Group makes the size of the screen a moot point. The SkinTrack system consists of a ring that emits a continuous high-frequency AC signal and a sensing wristband that goes under the watch. The wristband tracks the finger wearing the ring and senses whether the digit is hovering or actually making contact with your arm or hand, turning your skin into an extension of the touchscreen.
How could global economic inequality survive the onslaught of synthetic organisms, micromanufacturing devices, additive manufacturing machines, nano-factories?

We saw earlier this week that the International Board for setting standards for wireless were meeting; so this is their first outcome.
MVNOs will not have to provide roaming info until 2019, while other telcos must allow customers to opt out of receiving such information under the ACMA’s changes.
