When the makers of electronic implants abandon their projects, people who rely on the devices have everything to lose.
Engineers look to nature for ideas on how to make robots move through the world.
Tiny machines that deliver therapeutic payloads to precise locations in the body are the stuff of science fiction. But some researchers are trying to turn them into a clinical reality.
Artificial-intelligence researchers turn to lifelong learning in the hopes of making machine intelligence more adaptable.
Robots have become increasingly adept at interacting with the world around them. But to fulfil their potential, they also need a sense of touch.
ESG stands for Environmental, Social, and Governance. Investors are increasingly applying these non-financial factors as part of their analysis process to identify material risks and growth opportunities.
