Scientists can control brain circuits, behavior, and emotion using light. Researchers developed a new optogenetic tool, 'Opto-vTrap', which is expected to contribute to treatment for epilepsy, muscle ...

In Part 1 of this two-part series, we presented a 3-phase, 480VAC motor circuit with its associated controls (Figure). We stepped through a logical, systematic approach to troubleshoot the main power ...

New research into Parkinson's disease suggests that many of the problems suffered by patients -- difficulties in initiating actions, slow labored movements and tremors -- can be understood in terms of ...

A team of scientists in Korea and the United States have invented a device that can control neural circuits using a tiny brain implant controlled by a smartphone. Researchers, publishing in Nature ...

Hana El-Samad is a bit of a control freak. She’s been obsessed with the idea of injecting order into chaos since she was a little girl growing up in Lebanon during the height of the country’s ...

From overactive fear circuits to gut–brain disruptions, neurologists unpack the science behind anxiety and why understanding ...

With its ability to store and transmit genetic information, DNA offers molecular cogs and gears that researchers can harness to produce biological circuits. Cells typically rely on gene expression to ...

A single PSR-TRISAFE safety controller can monitor an entire safety circuit from emergency stops to safety doors in a machine or plant. The 67.5-mm controller monitors up to 20 safety input signals ...

When you get the call, “The motor won’t start,” you’d best have a logical and systematic plan in place to approach the problem. “Easter egging” just doesn’t work unless you happen to be very lucky!
