Child safety or parental duty: New study maps out core concepts in the vaccination debate
Around the edges of every headline-grabbing outbreak, there’s a vast range of opinions being circulated about the risks and benefits of early childhood immunization. The vaccination debate maintains a constant
Correct connections are crucial
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an established treatment for Parkinson’s disease, usually leading to significant improvement in motor symptoms and quality of life. Symptoms such as movement restrictions, muscle rigidity,
Equipping form with function
“Given a car model, there is usually one kind of mechanism that provides the functionality and, at the same time, thousands of different shapes that the car can have,” explains
Dune ecosystem modelling
The researchers developed a concept which could also incorporate background information such as soil type, the availability of nutrients, light intensity, wind, and soil moisture. Such models could help to
Self-folding origami: Chemical programming allows Nafion sheets to fold and refold
