Dynamic and Tunable Threshold Voltage in Organic Electrochemical Transistors
Here, the threshold voltage of OECTs is precisely tuned over a range of more than 1 V by chemically controlling the electrochemical potential at the gate electrode.

Engineering a Living Drug Factory
As the immune system’s equivalent of guided missiles, T-cells offer a seemingly ideal approach to disease management. They actively locate diseased cells and, after arriving at their target, exert a therapeutic effect proportionate to the disease burden. Unfortunately, many diseases such as cancer, autoimmune disorders and viral infections have immunological roots, and have become proficient…

The Future of Augmentation
The “Mother of All Demos” on December 9, 1968 was a truly seminal event. Doug Engelbart and his SRI team introduced to the world forms of human-computer interaction that are now ubiquitous: a screen divided into windows, typing integrated with a pointing device, hypertext, shared-screen teleconferencing. While these innovations have had enormous impact, they are…

From Toys to Trust – The Internet of Critical Things
When you hear someone talk about the Internet of Things (IoT), you may be thinking about toys and smart lightbulbs. The concept of IoT includes many more application areas, including manufacturing, energy, finance, health care, transportation and other things that we depend on for our everyday lives and wellbeing. People need to be able to…
