What can’t graphene do? You can scratch “detect cancer” off of that list. By interfacing brain cells onto graphene, University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) researchers have shown they can differentiate a single hyperactive cancerous cell from a normal cell, pointing the way to developing a simple, noninvasive tool for early cancer diagnosis. “This graphene…

Germs Add Ripples to Make ‘Groovy’ Graphene
Nanomaterial Creates Bendable, Wearable Electronic Devices
An ultrathin film that is both transparent and highly conductive to electric current has been produced by a cheap and simple method devised by an international team of nanomaterials researchers from the University of Illinois at Chicago and Korea University. The film — actually a mat of tangled nanofiber, electroplated to form a “self-junctioned copper…
