which is capable of producing printed solar cells that are both flexible and inexpensive to transport,
the use of additive manufacturing methods to produce the cells is surely one of the most efficient ways of doing so regardless of where they end up setting up shop.
Among others, researchers at the University of Southampton have been exploring ways of using additive manufacturing to produce optical fibers.
This new way of producing the fibers not only has the potential to dramatically change how existing fibers are produced,
but also pave the way for more complex optical fiber structures that are able to host a variety of applications for industries ranging from telecommunications and aerospace to biotechnologies and more."
"We hope our work will open up a route to manufacture novel fibre structures in silica and other glasses for a wide range of applications, covering telecommunications, sensing, lab-in-a-fibre, metamaterial fibre,

A study published on June 25th in PLOS Pathogens reports a new way to circumvent drug resistance
Three of these drugs get into the interior of the parasite cells via the trypanosome's transport proteins that normally supply the parasite with nutrients,
and drug resistance is caused by mutations that cripple these transporters. Jose Garcia-Salcedo, from the Instituto de Investigacion Biosanitaria in Granada, Spain,
and colleagues reasoned that using an alternative way to get the drugs into parasite cells would circumvent resistance.
most importantly, circumvents drug resistance in a cell line that is resistant as a result of mutations in the transporter that mediates drug uptake.
and circumventing resistance mechanisms caused by mutations in surface transporters.""The implication of this proof-of-concept study of a novel technology for reversing transporter-related drug resistance,

#Sweet source for aviation biofuel Researchers have identified a new way to produce aviation fuel from sugarcane biomass that could deliver substantial cuts in greenhouse gas emissions.
Biofuel sweetspot"We've identified a new route of chemistry with its source from sugars in sugarcane plus some of the so-called waste material called bagasse"
The development of a reliable biofuel that can be scaled up to a level that be used by the world's commercial airlines has proved somewhat elusive.
and as space on an aircraft is at a premium, and you'd like to pack in as much energy in the form of burnable fuel as possible,
temperatures around the aircraft are around-40c(-40f) or-50c, so you do not want your fuel gelling up on you."
If air travel continues to grow at the predicted rate, it could contribute a considerably higher proportion by 2050.
Is jet travel becoming the dirtiest way to cross the planet? The search for aviation biofuels broke on to the public stage in the late 2000s
when there were a number of test flights using a blend of conventional fuel and biofuel. In February 2008, the first commercial flight partly powered by biofuel (derived from a mixture of babassu nuts
and coconuts) took off from London's Heathrow airport. After a lengthy review by aircraft makers, engine manufacturers and fuel producers, biofuels were approved for commercial use in 2011.

where the aerospace giant makes aircraft wings.""These components contribute a huge amount to the manufacturing process.
Mr Risk doubts there will ever be a machine big enough to turn out a whole airframe."
In our digitally connected world, a machine could be programmed to start printing even before the aircraft lands.
While the holy grail of on-demand supply may be a little way off, John Schmidt, US-based managing director of aerospace and defence at consultancy Accenture, says printing is reducing lead times from months to weeks.
so it's only a matter of time before a tipping point is reached. 3d parts reduce weight on aircraft,
