In plasmon-enhanced heterogeneous catalysis, illumination accelerates reaction rates by generating hot carriers and hot surfaces in the constituent nanostructured metals. “In order to understand how photo-generated carriers enhance the non-thermal reaction rate, the effects of local heating and thermal gradients in the catalyst bed must be confidently and quantitatively characterized” Dr. Jie Liu, said at Catalysis and Chemical Engineering Conference.

This case study by Cardillo Roberto and Elnaz Rahbari indicates the usefulness of ultrasound in diagnosing sepsis by demonstrating a particular case report of a 42 years old woman. The study shows ultrasound helped evaluate hemodynamic instability, fluid status, therapeutic response, recognition of septic lesions and led to fast diagnosis of the septic source...

We are pleased to share the news that Dr. Sayon Roy and his team at Boston University School of Medicine identified a possible new treatment for diabetic retinopathy.
