Plasma Wakefield Acceleration (PWFA) is a promising technology aimed at producing compact and cost-efficient particle accelerators for high energy physics as well as…
The transmission of microwaves and terahertz waves in the atmosphere is essential for astronomy, remote sensing, and telecommunications. However, these waves are easily…
Parkinson’s disease (PD) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are two neurodegenerative disorders resulting from environmental and genetic factors. For some patients, usually those…
Social media platforms are increasingly used by random people to report an act and denounce it as a “violence” they have been subjected to. Some of these denunciations lead…
Blaise Pascal (1623-1662) does not cease being a geometer. He does not end up leaving science definitively for religion, as often thought. On the contrary, less than two…
Magnetic reconnection is the process by which magnetic fields pointing in opposite directions interact, annihilate and transmit their energy. Modeling the dynamics of…
Nanoparticles produced during combustion — in engines, heating systems, or industrial processes — are thousands of times smaller than a grain of sand, yet they play a major…
Our project focuses on improving surgical treatments for severe Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH), a life-threatening pediatric disease characterized by high blood…
The Salisbury Robotics Lab at Stanford is developing an innovative robotic Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) designed to assist in emergency medical situations. This…
Quantum materials provide an expansive field of research, which highlights emerging phenomena that challenge our basic understanding of complex solid-state electronic…
One of the key themes in modern optimization research is the boundary between convex and non-convex optimization. While convex optimization problems can often be solved…
Citizen movements in sub-Saharan Africa, in the wake of the Arab Spring, emerged in countries like Senegal, Burkina Faso, and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). One of…
Neutrophils are innate immune cells crucial for host defense against pathogens. Patients with a low number of neutrophils have recurrent infections which they fail to clear…
Seagrass beds and their native herbivore fish (Sarpa salpa) are foundational for the Mediterranean ecosystem. However, ocean warming is facilitating new herbivorous…
