Researchers at the Viterbi Faculty of Electrical Engineering have presented a breakthrough in in-memory computing:
The unmanned vehicle was produced using advanced technologies to serve as a cost-effective experimental platform for design aspects pertaining to flexible aircraft and green aviation Students from the Technion Faculty of Aerospace Engineering conducted the successful maiden test flight of the A3TB (Active Aeroelastic Aircraft
The beautiful phenomenon allows for new and exciting research opportunities in the fields of Optics and Optofluidics Haifa, Israel July 1, 2020 – A team of researchers from Technion – Israel Institute of Technology has observed branched flow of light for the very first time.
There is a connection between heart disease and cancer, a novel study has revealed. The findings, published in Circulation, could potentially help cardio-oncologists slow cancer progression and improve cancer outcomes. Researchers led by Professor Ami Aronheim, Professor Yuval Shaked, and Dr. Shimrit Avraham have determined
For immunocompromised patients, such as those with cancer or organ transplants, the novel coronavirus crisis has made going to hospital for regular blood tests an even greater health risk. Home-based or remote-based testing kits for Complete Blood Count (CBC) — the most common blood test used to
Israeli researchers say they have invented a reusable face mask that can kill the coronavirus with heat by drawing power from a mobile phone charger. The disinfecting process takes about 30 minutes – and users should not wear the mask while it is plugged in,
Prof. Ido Kaminer and team have made a dramatic breakthrough in the field of quantum science: a quantum microscope that records the flow of light, enabling the direct observation of light trapped inside a photonic crystal. Their research, “Coherent Interaction Between Free Electrons and a
Technion-Israel Institute of Technology and Rambam Health Care Campus have established a joint fund for research in human health. The fund will be directed towards the development of new therapies, rapid diagnostics, technologies to protect medical staff, innovations in healthcare and more. These interdisciplinary projects
