Revai has demonstrated that the preservation unit decreases the rate of necrosis, or massive cell death, in pig intestinal tissue. This exciting result held up when the unit was tested on human samples through partnerships with New England organ banks.

After successful testing with animal models, Campbell showed that human cells can be used to grow realistic human heart tissue on a new scaffolding that he and his research team have developed. First, human cells are drawn from a blood sample. Then the special scaffolding coaxes these cells into forming an easily manipulated tissue sample. Contractions of the tissue can be viewed under a microscope and analyzed mathematically for abnormalities — diagnosis relies on observing these contraction patterns. “The key design goal here was to make a linear piece of heart tissue that we could grab onto very easily,” Campbell said.

DNP was banned because it was causing deadly spikes in body temperature due to mitochondrial uncoupling. This means that the energy in glucose usually harnessed to produce ATP is instead released as heat. Shulman’s new study offers a solution: CRMP, a controlled release system that limits the backlash of DNP on the body. CRMP is an orally administered bead of DNP coated with polymers that promote the slow-release of DNP, which prevents overheating.

“It’s the first time we have something new for this particular organ,” Geibel said. Revai has demonstrated that the preservation unit decreases the rate of necrosis, or massive cell death, in pig intestinal tissue. This exciting result held up when the unit was tested on human samples through partnerships with New England organ banks.

Soon after this incident Dr. Denis Osborne, a physics professor, visited Mpemba’s school. He did not have an answer when Mpemba asked why hot water freezes faster than cold water. However, he was so intrigued by the question that he began to work with Mpemba to solve the conundrum. This was more than 40 years ago.

In collaboration with nine other Yale researchers, Devoret recently published a paper inNature that outlines the design and operation of a Josephson Parametric Amplifier, an element necessary for the development of the futuristic quantum computer. This new amplifier can read the basic unit of a quantum computer—the quantum bit—and can preserve the phase of the signal, an essential property when the signal’s arrival time contains important information.

For the past eighty years, scientists have used the particle accelerator to find out more about these units of matter. The basic mechanism of the accelerator has not changed over its history.

Motivation to develop a reusable rocket system stems from the pocketbook. Much of the cost of spaceflight comes from the construction of the rocket.
