125,000 deaths annually in the U.S., 10-25% of hospital admissions, and billions in medical expenses. Fortunately, there is not some new epidemic to worry about; instead, it is medical non-compliance that accounts for the aforementioned statistics. Researchers at UCLA are trying to solve this problem with the use of radio... Read More

Electronic devices have gotten smaller, cheaper, and more powerful with remarkable consistency over the past few decades. However, that progress has begun to stall due to the limit on energy efficiency of the CMOS transistors used in electronic chips today. Interestingly, researchers from UCLA, Berkeley, MIT, Stanford, and Caltech have... Read More

A University of California, Los Angeles research team led by  Robert Candler of the Sensors and Technology Laboratory is investigating the use of porous silicon resonant sensors to detect chemical vapors. That sounds great and all, but why should people care? The continual progress of technology is obviously extremely beneficial... Read More
