In this blog post from the National Institute of Standards and Technology, two scientists describe how nanotechnology could help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and make buildings more energy-efficient. 

Researchers found that the nanofibrils in the southern house spider’s silk could stretch 11 times their original length, more than twice the amount of any spider silk previously tested. 

Researchers have linked the immune response caused by lipid nanoparticles to their lipid chemistry. They found that some lipid structures bind strongly to receptors and others bind weakly.

Berton Mahardja, Director of Global Education Initiatives at the SEMI Foundation and former school teacher, will introduce free resources for teachers that are available through the SEMI Foundation’s webpage. 

Register to attend a webinar about measurement and analysis challenges in nanotechnology that may be bottlenecked by computational challenges and large datasets. 

And the three winners of the NanoInFocus image contest are ... 

Researchers have discovered that the key to maintaining the stability of nanocrystalline materials at high temperatures lies in triple junctions – corners where three nanocrystals meet. 

Scientists have developed a method driven by machine learning that allows them to accurately measure the mass of individual particles and molecules using complex nanoscale devices. The new technique could pave the way to determining the sequence of all the proteins in an organism.
