Dialysis with Graphene
Dialysis is used in medical applications to remove waste from blood. Besides hemodialysis, the process is also used to purify drugs, to clean chemical solutions, to isolate molecules and for other tasks. Nowadays, dialysis is performed using special commercially available membranes. The process is very slow due to the fact that these membranes are thick so the pores that tunnel through do so in winding paths. Also, because of the thickness, the particles move in winding paths making it difficult to target specific points at the end of their paths.

Computer Simulation Models Full Sense of Touch
Touching something with a hand triggers more than 12,500 tactile nerve fibers, informing a subject about the physical object in contact (texture, temperature, shape, size, motion across the skin, etc.). For years researchers have known how a single tactile fiber encodes tactile information. However, they do not know how the information retrieved by the populations of fibers is encoded.
