In order to 3D-print really intricate items, you need a really fine print nozzle. Scientists have discovered that instead of going to the time and trouble of building one, you can simply repurpose a ...

A severed mosquito proboscis can be turned into an extremely fine nozzle for 3D printing, and this could help create replacement tissues and organs for transplants. Changhong Cao at McGill University ...

A female wolf figured out how to pull a crab trap from the ocean onto shore to fetch a tasty treat. Scientists debate whether the behavior represents tool use, or if the animal needed to have modified ...

Apple has highlighted its use of 3D printing to make Apple Watch cases, to cut material use — and to enable a new, thin USB-C port for the iPhone Air. Most of the time, 3D printing is now associated ...

Imagine printing a nuclear reactor core — or nuclear fuel pellets — in 3D. It may sound far-fetched that 3D printing could create materials robust enough to withstand the extreme environment of a ...
