| Describing the indescribable: Underlying features of reported mystical experiences Posted: 15 Oct 2015 11:15 AM PDT Mystical experiences are frequently labeled as indescribable or ineffable. However, new research suggests that when prompted, people who have had a mystical, spiritual or religious experience can describe the event. |
| Chemical microdroplet computers are easier to teach than to design Posted: 14 Oct 2015 05:39 PM PDT Scientists have developed the concept of a simple chemical computer made of microdroplets capable of searching databases. Computer simulations, carried out on databases of malignant tumors, have confirmed the validity of the adopted new design strategy, which opens the door to the popularization of chemical methods of processing information. |
