Cells that have more energy can grow and renew faster, giving them -- and the organism to which they belong -- an evolutionary advantage
Wearable electronic health patches may now be cheaper, easier to make A team of researchers has invented a method for producing inexpensive and high-performing wearable patches that can continuously monitor the body's vital signs for human health and performance tracking. The researchers believe their new method is compatible with roll-to-roll manufacturing.
