Your day-to-day life will soon be affected by the bottom of a gecko foot. When you hear atomic physics one of the last images in your mind would be a reptile.

Northeastern University physics Prof. Meni Wanunu has received an $825,000 award from the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI)—an organization that supports the development of technologies to dramatically reduce the cost of DNA sequencing in an effort to broaden the applications of genomic information in medical research and health care.

What does your future have in common with your morning coffee, hurricanes, gambling, sports and the galaxy? All are intertwined by a mysterious property of nature called chaos.

Gene Saletan Physicist, teacher, writer, poet, translator, artist, linguist, drummer, trombonist, folk dancer, skier, airman, Gene Saletan lived many lives. Until his last days, he envisioned more work to do and new paths to follow, but he ran out of time. He died on July 3rd of non-Hodgkins lymphoma.

Justin Dowd (Math/Physics '13), winner of the the Metro newspaper's Race to Space, has created another chalk animation to go with his latest column in the newspaper.

Digital Epidemiology is an emerging field that has been developing over the last five years as a result of the data influx coming from new media and digital electronic devices.

Tarek Ibrahim who received his PhD in particle theory at NU in 1998 was awarded the Doctor of Science degree (DSc) by the University of Alexandria on the recommendation of three Fellows of the Royal Society.

Professor Arun Bansil publishes two new articles about topological insulators in Nature Magazine.

The 2012 Crystal & Graphene Science Symposium 2012 is scheduled for September 5-6, 2012.

The Higgs boson is a fundamental particle introduced by several physicists in the 1960s in the context of developing a theoretical model, the Standard Model Higgs field, which would explain why certain fundamental particles have mass and others do not. The Higgs boson itself is the only particle predicted by the Standard Model of particle physics that eluded experimental detection till now. Without a Higgs boson, or a similar particle,…

In this new video, Alessandro Vespignani, Sternberg Distinguished Professor of Physics, Computer Science and Health Sciences, explains how network science can not only predict the path of virus before it spreads around the world, but can potentially prevent it.

Professor Arun Bansil and Research Associate Dr. Hsin Lin are authors to an article published in Nature Physics on spin degrees and phenomena on surfaces of topological materials.
