Progress towards a medical device to help the paralyzed speak and multisensory mind-reading devices

Researchers have eavesdropped on the internal monologue in our brains for the first time. The achievement is a step towards helping people who cannot physically speak communicate with the outside world. Pasley and his colleagues recorded brain activity in people who already had electrodes implanted in their brain to treat epilepsy, while they listened to …

A model to unlock the money of wealthy people to get more disease cures through clinical trials

There are over 100,000 people in the world worth more than £20 million($30 million). According to medical statistics, between three and five people in every 100,000 get neuroendocrine cancer every year. So, three to five supremely wealthy people will have neuroendocrine cancer. For £1 million($1.5 million) , sell one or two of the rich but …

FISO Presentation – Status of the VASIMR solar electric propulsion system

Without funding support, the FISO telecon colloquia is an extracurricular activity. The telecon became less a working group tag-up and more, as it is exclusively now, an opportunity for a wide community to be presented with recent work relevant to in-space operations. It is important to understand that the FISO telecon is not a formal …

Russian Progress on Laser Ablation Rockets

A number of systems have been proposed that can produce laser propulsion. One of the most promising near term possibilities involves a process called laser ablation, in which a pulsed laser beam strikes a surface, heats it up, and burns off material to create what is known as a plasma plume—a column of charged particles …
