New NYU Tandon Cleanroom

New NYU Tandon Cleanroom

NYU Tandon Cleanroom for Advancing Technology – The NYU Tandon School of Engineering today will preview Brooklyn’s first NYU Tandon Cleanroom for Advancing Technology, where scientists and engineers from across greater New York will fabricate advanced materials and devices on the micro- and nano-scale in order to push the boundaries of established scientific principles and future technology. Such fabrication facilities are essential to experiments in nanotechnology, quantum computing, minute biosensors that could revolutionize medicine, ultra-fast electronics, hardware that is secure from hackers, and much more.

Stem Cells Grow Bone and Cartilage Tissue

Stem Cells Grow Bone and Cartilage Tissue

A new class of clay nanoparticles that can direct stem cells to become bone or cartilage cells. Human stem cells have shown potential in medicine as they can transform into various specialized cell types such as bone and cartilage cells. The current approach to obtain such specialized cells is to subject stem cells to specialized instructive protein molecules known as growth factors. However, use of growth factors in the human body can generate harmful effects including unwanted tissue growth, such as a tumor.

Micron to add new nanofab production cleanroom

Micron to add new nanofab production cleanroom

Semiconductor giant Micron Technology broke ground in North Coast yesterday to add new cleanroom space for production of its 3D NAND flash memory products. Micron did not disclose the cost, except to say that the new facility will be a “multi-billion- dollar investment”. It will be equipped over the next five years or more and add 1,000 new jobs in Singapore. As part of its agreement with the Economic Development Board, Micron will also broaden its research and development (R&D) capabilities here. The 1,000 new roles it is adding will comprise mainly engineers and technicians related to R&D and manufacturing.
