Scientists pioneer 3D-printed drug delivering micro-needles
Researchers have developed a new technique to produce a 3D ‘micro-printed’ array of needles capable of drug delivery. The technique would offer a pain-free drug delivery device that would allow drugs to diffuse within the body as the biomaterial device degrades in the body. This offers treatments for a wide range of diseases, including melanoma […]

In October’s Physics World: Taking the rigour of physics to the netherworld…
A handful of scientists are combining their favourite hobby with their day job, to form the emerging field of “speleophysics” – exploring how underground caves form, evolve and move water from one place to another. Writing in October the 2015 issue of Physics World magazine Stephen Ornes describes how a small group of physicists from […]

Forecasters look higher for clues to winter weather
By Pete Castle, University of Reading Long-range winter weather forecasts could be twice as accurate by taking account of unusual winds miles up in the stratosphere, scientists have found. Meteorologists at the University of Reading, European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) and Environment Canada found that by taking account of changing winds in the […]

3-D printed ‘building blocks’ of life
Scientists have developed a 3-D printing method capable of producing highly uniform ‘blocks’ of embryonic stem cells. These cells – capable of generating all cell types in the body – could be used as the ‘Lego bricks’ to build tissue constructs, larger structures of tissues, and potentially even micro-organs. The results are published today, Wednesday […]
