Such “BiTE” agents have already proven effective against blood, lung and prostate cancer, researchers report. Solar cells from the printer The solar cells from the inkjet printer are ultra-thin and flexible - and should also work inside buildings. World record for tandem solar cells A Swiss research team has succeeded in increasing the efficiency of perovskite silicon tandem solar cells to over 30 percent. This is a world record. Fountain of youth for cells Reprogrammed cells allow wounds in older people to heal faster. This could, for example, help burn victims. Cheap raw material for smartphones and solar cells Whether for smartphone screens or solar cells: Precious metals such as iridium or ruthenium are in high demand. Researchers from Basel have developed a cheaper and less toxic alternative. Rhythmical activity detected in lab-grown mini-brains In the laboratory, scientists have created miniature brains whose cells interact with each other and produce electrical activity. But just how much do the models have to do with the original? Clever cleaning of solar modules Dust accumulating on solar panels is a big problem. But washing the panels consumes large amounts of water. MIT engineers have now developed a waterless cleaning method. Electricity from chicken feathers Researchers want to use chicken feathers to produce green electricity. They use the keratin in chicken feathers to replace highly toxic chemicals in fuel cells. Smartwatch activates insulin production ETH researchers have developed a method that could possibly replace insulin injections for diabetics in the future. In a gene network built into cells, insulin production can be switched on with green light.
