Predicting chemistry

Written by Ju-Won Park  Quantum chemistry is the study of the properties of molecules and reactions. Recently,  computer technologies have started to be used to understand, model, and predict molecular properties and reactions. This consists of the properties of nanometer materials (substances with dimensions smaller

Magnetic Soft Microbots in Biomedicine

Written by Gloria Wang Robots are often depicted as futuristic, rigid machines made out of steel or other rigid materials. However, recent technology has introduced a new type of robots that can more safely interact with humans: soft microbots. Soft microbots are small, micrometer-scale robots

AI in Healthcare: ethics, challenges, and implications

WRITTEN BY: JUWON PARK From the Terminator to Iron Man’s JARVIS, the media has shaped our perception of artificial intelligence. The advent of artificial intelligence is felt through the daily use of virtual assistants like Apple’s Siri and Amazon’s Alexa. In addition, there has been

Artificial Intelligence in Radiology

Written by Zoe Berthold Artificial intelligence (AI) is the manipulation of data to get information, particularly from large data sets. At the moment, AI is used for ‘narrow’ tasks; while it can perform with greater efficiency, an AI cannot mimic the complex processes by which

Nanoparticles in Fuel Reproduction

Written by Shouri Bouchetty Nanoparticles work as effective catalysts due to their high surface-volume ratio. The smaller the particle, the greater the surface-volume ratio, allowing for the nanoparticles to react quickly. Additionally, nanoparticles are so tiny that they have different properties than the same pieces.
