Researchers at the Max Planck Institute of Colloids and Interfaces and collaborators at the University of California at Santa Barbara and the University of Chicago believe they have uncovered the basis how marine mussels use the byssus, a bundle of tough and extensible fibres, to fasten securely to wave-swept rocky coastlines. According to their findings, local accumulation of iron-mediated cross-links creates hard knobs within an extensible matrix containing much fewer of these molecular bridges.

A single cell in the human body is approximately 10,000 times more energy-efficient than any nanoscale digital transistor, the fundamental building block of electronic chips. In one second, a cell performs about 10 million energy-consuming chemical reactions, which altogether require about one picowatt (one millionth millionth of a watt) of power. MIT's Rahul Sarpeshkar is now applying architectural principles from these ultra-energy-efficient cells to the design of low-power, highly parallel, hybrid analog-digital electronic circuits.

Miniaturized chemical and analysis processes have many advantages, such as in reduced use of chemical reagents and solvents, precisely controlled reaction condition, much shortened reaction time and the ability to integrate into a digital device. The existing technique to manipulate small volumes of liquid, which is the essential technique to the miniaturized processes, is mainly based on channel-based microfluidics. Channel microfluidics indeed has many advantages, but it is hard to handle just a single liquid droplet.
