3D–printed implants shown to help grow ‘real bone’

Chemically coated, ceramic implants successfully guided the regrowth of missing bone in lab animals while 'steadily dissolving,' researchers report. Surgeons and scientists at NYU School of Medicine and NYU College of Dentistry say their implanted scaffolds were naturally absorbed by the test animals’ bodies as new bone gradually replaced the devices. The research team describes its progress in a series of reports, the latest of which ...

Verbal working memory architecture has implications for AI

The neural structure we use to store and process information in verbal working memory is more complex than previously understood, finds a study by researchers at New York University. It shows that processing information in working memory involves two different networks in the brain rather than one—a discovery that has implications for the creation of artificial intelligence (AI) systems, such as speech translation tools.

Enhanced 3D look inside batteries

A team of chemists has developed a method to yield highly detailed, three-dimensional images of the insides of batteries. The technique, based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), offers an enhanced approach to monitor the condition of these power sources in real time. "One particular challenge we wanted to solve was to make the measurements 3D and sufficiently fast, so that they could be done during the battery-charging cycle," explains NYU...

MRI technique enables consistent diagnoses

A technology harnesses imperfections that typically compromise MRI exams to create images resolved enough to enable consistent diagnoses across populations for the first time. These are findings of a study led by NYU Langone Medical Center and published in Nature Communications. Since its emergence in the 1970s, MRI has given physicians a better look inside tissues, helping to diagnose maladies from brain tumors to internal bleeding to ...

Solution to NYU 3D printing cybersecurity concerns

In a news release and paper in late July, researchers at NYU raised multiple cybersecurity concerns related to 3D printing. Specifically, they contended that the intentional incorporation of small defects or the alteration of the printing orientation of a part, among other things, could be performed to maliciously reduce the durability and suitability for use of 3D printed parts. Thus, under this scenario, a computer ‘hacker’ would be...

Malleable particles aid the creation of synthetic materials

A team of scientists has created malleable and microscopic self-assembling particles that can serve as the next generation of building blocks in the creation of synthetic materials. "Our work turns the tiniest of particles from inflexible, Lego-like pieces into ones that can transform themselves into a range of shapes," explains Stefano Sacanna, an assistant professor in NYU's Department of Chemistry and the senior author of the paper, which appe...

The reported cybersecurity risks in 3D printing

Additive manufacturing (AM), commonly called 3D printing, is a $4 billion business set to quadruple by 2020. One day, manufacturers may print everything from cars to medicines, disrupting centuries-old production practices. The Federal Aviation Administration recently certified the first 3D-printed part for GE commercial jet engines, and companies like Ford Motor Company are using AM to build products and prototypes.

The right balance to speed wireless downloads

Researchers from New York University Tandon School of Engineering and Trinity College in Dublin, Ireland, have conceived a method to improve spectrum efficiency by deploying a mix of half and full duplex radios in base stations. Their paper, Throughput and Coverage for a Mixed Full and Half Duplex Small Cell Network, recently won Best Paper at the IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC) in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. ICC is one of the w...

Wireless study predicts solutions for 5G cellular

The 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), comprising seven telecommunications standard development organisations, will soon choose among channel models to adopt as testing standards for 5G cellular systems. However, a new study by Theodore (Ted) S. Rappaport, the Ernst Weber/David Lee professor of electrical engineering at NYU Tandon School of Engineering and founding director of NYU WIRELESS, suggests that the three-parameter "alpha-beta-ga...

Paving the way to six-state magnetic memory

Computers are often described with "ones and zeros," referring to their binary nature: each memory element stores data in two states. But there is no fundamental reason why there should be just two. In a study, researchers have designed a magnetic element that has six stable magnetic states, which paves the way toward realising a six-state magnetic memory element.

Researchers teach machines how to learn like humans

A team of scientists has developed an algorithm that captures our learning abilities, enabling computers to recognise and draw simple visual concepts that are mostly indistinguishable from those created by humans. The work marks a significant advance in the field: one that dramatically shortens the time it takes computers to 'learn' new concepts and broadens their application to more creative tasks.
