Last spring French president Emmanuel Macron inaugurated Station F, the world’s largest startup campus. A 1920 railway depot, located in the 13th arrondissement of Paris, known as La Halle Freyssinet, was transformed into a campus to host more than 1,000 startups in a space greater than 34,000 square meters (over 365,000 square feet).

The single-use, disposable devices suport hypothermic oxygenated perfusion preservation and transport of donor hearts.

Using food waste as a potential filler for natural rubber may make it suitable for electronic sealants and sensors.

Unlike conventional palladium-driven catalytic processes, a new pseudo-homogeneous catalysis method is fast, efficient and consumes nontoxic solvents.

Monitoring changes in the infrasound character produced by open-vent volcanoes can signal a rise in lava lake level and eruption activity.

The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) will monitor over 200,000 of the brightest, nearby stars. Scientists expect to discover over 2,000 exoplanet candidates, around 300 of which will be Earth-sized or super-Earth-sized.

A new resin cures at room temperature without creating flaws in the fiberglass, and lends itself to recycling.

In consideration as one of NASA’s future X-planes, STARC-ABL (single-aisle turboelectric aircraft with aft boundary-layer propulsor) will incorporate new technologies such as electric-enhanced propulsion and a boundary-layer ingesting engine.

In this edition of the Engineering360 News Brief, we'll look at self-healing electronic skin, how drones set a record of their own at the Winter Olympics and how a NASA space sub will ply Titan's oceans.
