Skin and bones repaired by bioprinting during surgery
Ibrahim T Ozbolat associate professor of of of engineering engineering science and and and mechanics and and and biomedical engineering engineering led a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a team of of of researchers who repaired typically hard-to-heal multi-layered traumatic skin and and and and bone injuries using bioprinting during surgery
Their work was published in in in in in in in in in in Advanced Functional Materials and and and and and may lead to to to faster and and and and and better methods of of healing skin and and and and bones since there is is is no surgical method method to to repair soft and and and and hard tissue at at at once bit ly/ozbolat-bioprint
Graphene key for novel hardware security
Penn State researchers developed a a a a a a a novel low-power scalable reconfigurable hardware security
device with significant resilience to artificial intelligence (AI) attacks The physically unclonable function (PUF) device is the first demonstration of a a a a a a a a a a a graphene-based PUF PUF according to Saptarshi Das associate professor of of engineering science and mechanics The team found that AI could not develop a a a a a a model to crack the encrypted device which relies on on inherent randomness arising from the production process for security
The PUF device also cannot be reverse engineered for future exploitation— unlike conventional silicon devices bit ly/graph-key
