Scientists Manipulate Light to Make Flat Surfaces Appear as 3-D Objects
Scientists have created new 2-D nanostructured surfaces which appear as realistic 3-D objects – including shading and shadows – using cutting edge nano-engineering. The research was carried out by King’s College London alongside Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn, and is published in the American Chemical Society journal Nano Letters. When light hits an object, the colour, texture, and shape affect…

Study Investigates Whether It is Safe for GPs to Prescribe Fewer Antibiotics
A new study has found that reducing antibiotic prescribing for respiratory tract infections – such as coughs, colds, sore throats and ear infections – is not linked to an increase in the most serious bacterial complications, such as bacterial meningitis. The study, published in the BMJ, investigated whether reducing antibiotic prescribing for people attending their GP…
