Researchers Employ Photoacoustic Imaging to Capture the Interiors of the Human Body

Thunder can be heard for a short length of time after a lightning strike. This is because the surrounding substance that was struck by lightning absorbs the light, which is then converted into heat, causing the material to expand and make a sound.

Novel Microfluidics-Enabled Soft Robotic Sleeve Enables Lymphedema Treatment

Lymphedema is common in breast cancer survivors due to the high risk of lymph node damage or removal during surgical procedures. Because the nodes’ locations cause fluid and proteins to collect in the arm, compression sleeves are used to try to restore normal flow. Current techniques, however, are both costly and inconvenient.
