In a significant advance for semiconductor technology, researchers at the University of Virginia (UVA) have confirmed a fundamental principle governing heat flow in ultra-thin metal films.

A breakthrough in 3D-printing concrete by researchers at the University of Virginia has been achieved. The team have developed a sustainable and printable cementitious composite that combines graphene with limestone and calcined clay cement (LC2), enhancing both strength and durability while decreasing carbon emissions.

A research team at the University of Virginia School of Engineering and Applied Science has explored how cellulose nanofibrils, a novel plant-based material, can enhance the benefits of 3D-printed concrete technology.  

You know that freeze ray gun that Batman villain Mr. Freeze uses to ‘ice’ his enemies? A University of Virginia professor thinks he may have figured out how to make one in real life.

Human diseases are network diseases," said Eyleen O'Rourke, an assistant professor of biology and cell biology at the University of Virginia. By that she means that our genes, cells, tissues and organs all interact and affect each other as a highly complex network of entities that, in combination with the environment – defined as our diet, health habits and other factors – determine whether our bodies are affected by disease, and how ...

A discovery about how the body deals with the cholesterol contained within its dying cells has suggested an exciting new approach to control people's cholesterol levels - and thus their risk of developing heart disease.
