    Summary

     

    Through its phenomenal ability to image soft tissues, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has revolutionized both clinical medicine and research biomedicine. Nowadays, MRI scanners used clinically have spatial resolutions in the range of 0.5 mm. This enables identification and monitoring of disease processes throughout the body and visualization of minute brain structures. Magnetic resonance microscopy (MRM) brings the resolution down to the micron scale, so that cells and parts of cells can be seen. Using ultrasensitive silicon nano-wired mechanical resonators, we are working to distinguish small ensembles of nuclear and electron spins. In doing so, we are striving to bring MR down to the nanometer scale, allowing imaging of single viral particles. Subsequently, extending the approach to the Angstrom scale, our goal is to demonstrate MR imaging of individual protein molecules.

    Functionalized Nanodiamonds for Sensing Biochemical Processes

    Summary Chemotherapy is limited by the failure to clinically monitor the efficacy of the treatment in real-time, which results in suboptimal chemotherapy being given for a prolonged period. Predicting the outcome of chemotherapy immediately after drug administration can increase diagnostic accuracy, efficacy outcomes, and successful treatment. Quantum nanodiamond sensors can be used as optical sensors […]

    A Reformulation of Quantum Game Theory

    Summary Classical game theory – conducted at the interface between economics and computer science – has found applications in topics ranging from networking and security to online markets. Despite over 20 years of research into connections between game theory and quantum information, we have yet to see any significant implications of quantum information when applied […]

    Spin Generation and High-Frequency Detection via the Quantum Nonlinear Anomalous Hall Effect in Weyl Semimetals

    In magnetic conductors, the passage of current yields an electric field in the transverse direction even without an external magnetic field – this is known as the anomalous Hall effect (AHE). This effect can act as a convenient probe of spin ordering, magnetic textures, spin-orbit coupling, and band topology in solids, and can be further […]

    Folk Understanding of Quantum Physics

    Summary  It is often said that quantum concepts are counterintuitive. However, quantum concepts may not be equally counterintuitive to people from all cultural backgrounds. As cultural psychologists have discovered, culture fundamentally shapes the way people make sense of the world. In particular, the last few decades of research have documented cultural differences in appreciation of […]
