With the help of a five-year, nearly $1.98 million Maximizing Investigators’ Research Award (MIRA) (R35) from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences of the National Institutes of Health, researchers at Wayne State University aim to make strides in understanding how proteins move and interact in living cells through the development of next-generation computational modeling tools.
You won't find quantum computers in your local electronics store, but in the future, these superfast computers will probably become more common. Researchers from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology are bringing this future a small step closer.
The new discrete grid imaging technique, or DIGIT, enables optical microscopes to resolve individual atoms and zero in on their exact locations in a crystal structure. The research could help guide the design of quantum devices and provide new insights into how defects and impurities shape the behavior of advanced materials.
Researchers at the University of Cincinnati are developing a drone with flapping wings that can locate and hover around a moving light like a moth to a flame.
Tens of thousands of B.C. public school students are embarking on new tech-based projects thanks to $150,000 from Simon Fraser University aimed at transforming classroom experience.
The 2025 Cmolik–SFU Grant Program supports classroom, school, and district-based science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (STEAM) projects. Administered by Simon Fraser University’s Faculty of Education through the Cmolik Endowment Fund, the program empowers educators to design initiatives that build critical thinking skills, foster curiosity, and create equitable opportunities for students from kindergarten to Grade 12.
