San Diego native Jacqueline Phan passed on opportunities to study in California so she could contribute to biochemistry research here in Las Vegas.

A team of researchers from the University of Nevada Las Vegas have developed a device they hilarious call the “Tooth Cracker 5000” to extract 80 percent of the stem cells a pulp contains from a wisdom tooth.

Hailey Dawson is already a veteran of tossing the ceremonial first pitch at the ripe old age of seven. She’s got two Major League games under her belt and is about to add a third, with her biggest audience yet, as she kicks off Game 4 of the World Series in Houston.

Late in the afternoon in early October, the Dawson family gathered to watch son Zach’s baseball game.

Stem cells are a crucial part of modern medicine and can be used to treat a wide variety of medical conditions. Now researchers at ��ҳ| �鶹��ýӳ�� have discovered a new way of harvesting these all-important biological cells by (get ready to wince!) extracting them from the root pulp inside every tooth.

Mom couldn't find a company to create a robotic hand for her daughter, so she came up with a novel solution.

While 3D printed prosthetics are good at helping people complete simple tasks like holding a pen or opening a door, we’ve also seen some special 3D printed prostheses for use in activities like playing an instrument, running, or playing sports, like baseball. 7-year-old Hailey Dawson, who is missing the three middle fingers on her right hand, wants to show people that kids with handicaps like hers can still have great lives and enjoy normal activities. You may ask how exactly she plans to do this, and the answer is pretty interesting – by throwing out the ceremonial first pitch for every Major League Baseball (MLB) game.

A little girl born with a rare disease is on a quest to throw the ceremonial first pitch for every Major League Baseball team as she sets out to prove that children can live extraordinary lives despite their handicaps or physical deformities.

Soft robots have become an area of interest due to the fact that they would make possible tasks and environments previously unachievable by traditional and rigid robotic systems. For example, soft robots could get around in rough terrain or engage in more physical contact with the human body.

Every January, the modern-day Masters of the Universe flock to the Strip. From Wall Street and Silicon Valley they come for CES, where the Fetty Waps of the world play Google after-parties, and heavyweights from Intel to IBM showcase the future’s infrastructure. It’s the biggest trade show in a city of trade shows.

Thanks to the use of an electroactive polymer, the material could make prostheses much more flexible and can even be handled by external electronic means.

Forget steel and aluminum. The robots of tomorrow may be able to squish, stretch and squeeze.
