 Imagine receiving a pacemaker that saves your life—and then quietly disappears once your heart recovers. No second surgery. No permanent hardware. No long-term complications. That future is no longer science fiction.   Signal Depth Navigator Scientists from Northwestern University, Sungkyunkwan University, and collaborating institutions have developed a wireless bioresorbable electrical stimulation system that performs a remarkable task: it delivers precise electrical pulses to organs, muscles, and nerves during recovery, then gradually dissolves inside the body once its job is complete. Controlled using tissue-penetrating near-infrared light, the implant eliminates the need for surgical removal while supporting advanced stimulation waveforms for applications ranging from temporary cardiac pacing to nerve repair and respiratory support. Although still in preclinical stages, the technology represents a significant step toward safer, sm...

  A scientific instrument rarely changes the limits of what humanity can observe. Europe has just switched on one that does exactly that. A new superconducting detector is now seeing X-ray signals that were once considered too weak to measure.

  South Korea spends more on research than almost any country on Earth. Yet its scientific workforce is beginning to shrink.

  What if scientists could print living tissues with the same precision as manufacturing a smartphone chip?

  What if the next motor inside robots, medical devices, and precision machines contains no magnets, no copper coils, and almost no metal?

  What if a brain tumor could reveal its genetic identity without waiting two weeks for expensive laboratory testing?

  A woman who can no longer speak may soon communicate using only her thoughts.

  A new quantum computing model inspired by the human brain just achieved something extraordinary.

  What if thousands of DNA loops could be woven together like Olympic rings?
