    A hospital in Paris, France, is offering patients an alternative method for pain management, replacing doses of pain medication with doses of virtual reality (VR) technology.

  • A Bio-based Food Packaging Alternative Developed by Research Team

    The potential to completely eliminate petroleum-based food packaging material may be closer than ever before thanks to research being conducted at Karlstad University, where researchers have demonstrated that a starch and polymer mix is as effective at protecting food as traditional packaging.

  • A High-Tech Solution for Off-Tasting Wine

    Scientists have just reported a new method for removing off-tasting wine substances that makes use of tiny magnetic particles.

  • Not Your Parents’ Public Transit

    For baby boomers and Gen Xers, public transit conjures up images of slow urban buses belching clouds of black smoke or subway trains crammed with rush-hour humanity. These scenarios no longer define the art and science of moving people where they need to go.
