That was one of the questions debated by members of the American Medical Association’s (AMA) House of Delegates at its meeting this week. The delegates discussed on Tuesday a resolution that would amend AMA policy to say that board certification programs “must first […]
Magnetic surprise revealed in ‘magic-angle’ graphene
When two sheets of the carbon nanomaterial graphene are stacked together at a particular angle with respect to each other, it gives rise to some fascinating physics. For instance, when this so-called “magic-angle graphene” is cooled to near absolute zero, it suddenly becomes a superconductor, meaning it conducts electricity with zero resistance. Now, a research […]
