The loose assemblage of paper and string Manu Prakash pulls from his pocket doesn’t look like much. And in a way, it’s not—just 20 cents’ worth of materials you can buy at an art supply store. But in another way, the Stanford bioengineer’s tangle of stuff is a minor miracle. Prakash calls it a Paperfuge, and...Read More

It might be hard to imagine what link there could be between a huge scientific machine underneath Geneva and a field of tomatoes in Lebanon but both need advanced technology to achieve their best results. Even if they seem light years apart, they face the same technical challenges. In light of this, CERN is now...Read More

The Lab Little Devices develops little lab material for health that can be reproduces (most) everywhere. José Gomez Marquez, from Honduras, leads this MIT lab which is a mix of mechanical workshop, a toy deposit and an innovation center. The Gomez Marquez’s team is dedicated to the development of medical devices to be used in poor countries...Read More
