From chips to cubes: chemists make self-growing microcircuits

Article Abstract:

Chemist Jean-Claude Bradley is developing a new technique to build denser microcircuitry. Bradley and his team have initially created two copper wires to make a simple circuit to light up a small bulb. Bradley is starting to seek for industrial partners to finance his research.

Article Abstract:

New studies show that salps in the waters of the Southern Ocean help clear the atmosphere of excess carbon dioxide. Scientists suggest that these marine fauna may be the 'missing sink' in the carbon cycle.
