Robots in movies may be evil more often than good, but they're becoming part of our lives. And their tech is evolving so that they "feel" more like we do. This happened recently, and we had to show it to you

"For better or worse, the word 'innovation' has come to represent so much that it seems to have lost most of its meaning," says Noah Brier, cofounder of Percolate , a company that helps brands create content on a social scale. So a few years ago, Brier decided to read some of the early writings of Josef Schumpter, the first person to really talk about innovation in the field. "Reading his stuff really opened my eyes, as he had a very specific definition of innovation: The commercialization of an invention," says Brier.

How many students does it take to screw in a compact fluorescent lightbulb? Tony Anderson, Morehouse College ’08, can answer that.

An international team that includes University of British Columbia physicists has used ultra-fast laser pulses to identify the microscopic interactions that drive high-temperature superconductivity.

Collaboration between the University of Southampton and the University of Cambridge has made ground-breaking advances in our understanding of the changes that materials undergo when rapidly heated.

(PhysOrg.com) -- Physicists at the University of California, San Diego have discovered patterns which underlie the properties of a new state of matter.

Here's how to be seen as a one-of-a-kind true original. Even if you're not. Here's a dirty little secret about entrepreneurship: Almost everything has been done before—and if it hasn't, and you come up with an awesome, unique new venture idea, chances are you'll quickly find me-too competitors nipping at your heels.

LONDON (Reuters) - The collapse of an ice sheet in Antarctica up to 14,650 years ago might have caused sea levels to rise between 14 and 18 meters (46-60 feet), a study showed on Wednesday, data which could help make more accurate climate change predictions. The melting of polar ice could contribute to long-term sea level rise, threatening the lives of millions, scientists say.

By Nina Chestney LONDON (Reuters) - Traditional measures showing strong economic growth in Brazil and India over nearly two decades fail to take account of the depletion of their natural resources, scientists and economists at a climate conference said on Wednesday. Scientists and environment groups have been pressuring governments to include the value of their countries' natural resources - and use or loss of them - into future measurements of economic activity, rather than relying solely on the gross domestic product calculation

LONDON -- The impact of human activity on the Earth is running out of control, and the amount of time in which action can be taken to prevent potentially catastrophic climate change is rapidly dwindling, a leading scientist from the Australian National University told a global scientific climate conference in London yesterday.

A rare set of nearly 10,000-year-old human bones found in 1976 on a seaside bluff in La Jolla, Calif., may soon be removed from the custody of the University of California, San Diego, and turned over to the local Kumeyaay Nation tribes.

You can always enforce your trademarks, but should you? Here are three tips to help you decide when it's worth it. There was a time when school colors ran deep

Researchers have devised a proposal for the first conclusive experimental test of a phenomenon known as "Bell’s nonlocality." This test is designed to reveal correlations that are stronger than any classical correlations, and do so between high-energy particles that do not consist of ordinary matter and light. These results are relevant to the so-called ‘CP violation’ principle, which is used to explain the dominance of matter over antimatter. These findings by Beatrix Hiesmayr, a theoretical physicist at the University of Vienna, and her colleagues, a team of quantum information theory specialists, particle physicists and nuclear physicists, have been published in the European Physical Journal C.
