From battery life to pure life, new research shows we're getting closer to a future where important implanted and wearable health devices could run on power collected from our own organs.
Researchers show that materials called piezoelectrics, packaged onto flexible strips attached to animal hearts, can supply power for medical devices where batteries pose problems.
Stanford researchers find a new way to safely charge tiny devices embedded inside the body. Cyberization, here we come.
Taking personalized medicine to an extreme, the device analyzes blood flow to help doctors know exactly how well drugs like aspirin work to prevent heart attacks -- not in general, but on any given patient.
A prototype cardiac energy harvester out of the University of Michigan could one day harness the beating of a heart to power a pacemaker.
Fredric Vinna, part of Beats Music's early team of creators, recently left the streaming music service and will soon begin work at its main rival, Spotify.
A team of engineers at Stanford says it's possible to power a tiny, implantable cardiac device using radio waves instead of batteries.
A new study using light to target and stimulate specific neurons in lab rats trained to drink much the way human binge-drinkers do finds the rodents "flat out stopped drinking."
ATM hacker Barnaby Jack's death was an accidental drug overdose, said San Francisco's medical examiner's office.
Conventional MRI scanners can exceed 110 decibels, which equals rock show noise levels and is on the edge of the human pain threshold.
