@NorthwesternEng @NUFeinbergMed Post-surgical fluid leaks can be life-threatening, and current methods of detecting them are not reliable. "We developed an engineering approach and a set of advanced materials to address this unmet need in patient monitoring," says @ProfJohnARogers.

Developed by researchers at the Italian Institute of Technology, it uses cameras and AI to detect cigarette butts in parks, beaches, and narrow alleys. During initial tests, Vero successfully collected about 90% of the cigarette butts it found.

My lab has been working for the past 15 years to develop a method to isolate specific genomic loci to identify its chromatin composition & protein interactome. Finally,… our superb physician/scientist Dr. Bercin Cenik Bercin K Cenik did it and here it is Not only was she able to develop this method, which she calls TurboCAS, she was able to identify known & novel regulators of heat shock & Myc expression. Cannot wait to see what Bercin and TurboCAS will discover about the molecular basis of transcriptional regulation with great impact on clinic in the next few years!

Scientists can now see into the future—of your heart. Researchers at Northwestern Medicine have recently published a free online calculator that estimates a person’s 30-year risk of developing heart disease, the leading cause of death in the U.S. since at least 1950, based on key health metrics. More than 99% of people who suffer a heart attack, stroke, or heart failure have at least one risk factor beforehand—yet many don’t know until it’s too late. We spoke with the scientist behind the technology that can help prevent this. See the full list of last year's notable health breakthroughs set to improve your life here:

Biologically, menopause is defined as the point at which a woman has gone 12 consecutive months without a menstrual period and is no longer able to become pregnant. Menopause is usually preceded by a phase called perimenopause, when natural hormone levels start to fluctuate. Perimenopause can often trigger a series of emotional and physical symptoms. “What we forget is that, yes, hot flashes, insomnia, vaginal dryness, all these not only impact on quality of life, but they are also impacting on length of life,” Dr. Lauren Streicher, a clinical professor in obstetrics and gynecology at Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine, told host William Brangham. Streicher, who is also a certified menopause practitioner and the founding medical director of the Northwestern Medicine Center for Sexual Medicine and Menopause, added that the choices made in midlife, during the menopause transition, can affect chances of developing osteoporosis, cardiovascular disease, stroke and other conditions later. “We've learned so much that there is a very high association with what women are experiencing now and how that is going to have repercussions years down the road,” Streicher said. Horizons from PBS News, dives into the science, health, technology and environmental issues making headlines each week. Visit the PBS News website to watch this week's episode.

Researchers at Northwestern University have developed "legged metamachines," a new class of modular robots whose unique physical forms were evolved entirely by artificial intelligence. Rather than following traditional human-engineered blueprints, the researchers used AI to "grow" novel body configurations in a computer simulation, resulting in strange new "species" that move like seals, lizards, or kangaroos. These AI-driven designs bypass standard dog- or human-like structures to create machines that no human engineer would have conceived. The machines are composed of autonomous, Lego-like modules, each containing its own motor, battery, and computer. While individual modules can move on their own, their true agility and near-indestructibility emerge through the AI-evolved architecture that allows them to function as a collective. Because the design is inherently modular, these robots can survive catastrophic damage that would be fatal to traditional machines. Broken parts do not become dead weight; instead, the AI-designed system allows them to keep rolling or crawling independently to rejoin the team. Lead researcher Sam Kriegman notes that these are the first robots to step outdoors after evolving inside a computer. They can survive being cut into pieces, as every separated module remains an individual agent capable of continuing its journey. The study, conducted at the McCormick School of Engineering, was co-authored by Kriegman and PhD students Chen Yu, David Matthews, and Jingxian Wang.

Incredible testimony from Joseph Burgo : “These young men live with surgical changes that they can't reverse, including the removal of their testicles, the inversion of their penises into a neo vagina, and often the loss of sexual function or pleasure, and that's for life. They're also trapped in a body that requires ongoing medical care due to surgical complications, again for life.”

Changing a light bulb with a robot! 💡 Researchers at the Korea Institute of Machinery & Materials developed a gripper that can handle complex manipulation tasks like bulb and bolt installation. It has three fingers with nine degrees of freedom (9 DoF), allowing precise control. Each finger moves using a special linkage system that enables flexible motion. The gripper can grasp objects of different shapes and adjust their positions accurately. Tests showed that it can lift up to 12 kg and apply a fingertip force of 40 N with high precision. Complex manipulation can be handled by robots! 🦾
