A genome engineering-based systematic strategy for developing phage resistant Escherichia coli strains has been successfully developed through the collaborative efforts of a team led by Professor Sang Yup Lee, Professor Shi Chen, and Professor Lianrong Wang. This study by Xuan Zou et al. was published in Nature Communications in August 2022 and featured in Nature Communications Editors’ Highlights. The collaboration … Read More
As climate change generates more extreme weather events and the United States shifts to more electric vehicles, there is more demand on the nation’s three regional power grids than ever before. Renewable energy is on the rise in an effort to offset the demand for more electricity, but reliability has been a concern. Therefore, many groups are experimenting with futuristic
The Port of Long Beach has released a final report examining the environmental impacts associated with deepening existing navigation channels to enhance safety, reliability and efficiency for visiting cargo vessels.
The Deep Draft Navigation Integrated Feasibility Report with Environmental Impact Statement/Environmental Impact Report (EIR), prepared jointly with the
Britpave – the British Cementitious Paving Association representing many leading roadbuilding contractors, designers, machinery makers and materials suppliers – says that autonomous vehicles, all following the same alignment, will soon cause rutting in asphalt and impaired surface skid resistance.
Under plans announced by the Department of Transport self-driving vehicles could
Elevated build costs continue to contribute to the inflationary pressure on the construction supply chain, but other risks are also mounting.
The sector is experiencing a high rate of insolvencies as one enduring impact of the removal of the fiscal crutches put in
The strength of steel makes it one of the most robust materials known to man. When galvanized with zinc (Zn), it becomes more resistant to corrosion. This makes it an economical choice to use in construction and infrastructure.
In the last decade, Zn reserves have fallen appreciably, forcing us to switch to using Zn alloys. Magnesium (Mg) is the most
