The Future of 3D Printing
thefutureofthings.com — “Imagine printing a new valve for a broken water faucet or a new plate when your five-year-old drops the good dishes. Imagine not being limited by commercial pipe sizes or designs requiring individual pieces that can be fit together by current commercial equipment. Imagine custom creating every gift given to each friend or family member to incorporate favorite song lyrics, literary quotations, inside jokes, or photographs.

Test for Cognitive Decline in Parkinson's Patients
thefutureofthings.com — “Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphiadeveloped a blood test capable of determining the level of mental impairment likely to be suffered by patients with Parkinson's disease. The new test, the first of its kind, examines the level of epidermal growth factor, or EGF, found in patients. The scientists determined that patients with the lowest levels of this factor are eight times more likely to develop dementia symptoms than other Parkinson's patients.” View full resource at thefutureofthings.com

Seeing Melanoma
thefutureofthings.com — “Scientists from Washington University, St. Louis, have developed new technologies that promise to solve one of the most difficult problems melanoma patients encounter. Although few people have this kind of skin cancer, the mortality rate among them is very high. Therefore, clinicians hope that the new development will bring some ease to their patients.” View full resource at thefutureofthings.com

Why Saliva Forms Beads on a String
thefutureofthings.com — “A team made up of scientists from several institutions recently found the cause for the "beads-on-a-string" phenomenon, mostly known in saliva. When people stretch a glob of saliva between their thumb and forefinger, they see string of beads form, before the strand eventually breaks. Now, the team offers an explanation, which might help improve industrial processes and administering drugs in "personalized medicine."” View full resource at thefutureofthings.com

Genetic Links to Autism
thefutureofthings.com — “Researchers at Oxford University in England have found a non-hereditary genetic link to autism. They have shown that individuals with autism tend to have either missing or extra sectors of DNA segments, a genetic mistake called copy number variants. This discovery could lead to easier identification and diagnosis of the disease as well as a potential avenue for new treatments or even a cure for the disease.” View full resource at thefutureofthings.com
