New two-dimensional nanomaterials called MXenes that are being examined by the Missouri University of Science and Technology may lead to new superlubricants that could better protect the delicate moving parts of future Mars rovers.

Applying the wearable sensors of the future could be as simple as sketching out a shape on your arm, according to new research that investigates the potential for bioelectronics to be applied through graphite pencils and office copy paper.

​If we're going to develop drought-resistant crops, we first need to better understand how existing crops respond to dry conditions. With that in mind, scientists have developed a field-deployed robotic system that studies parched corn plants.

A nuclear-powered, water-based battery that is claimed to be both longer lasting and more efficient than current battery technologies, and which may eventually be used as a dependable power supply in vehicles and spacecraft, has been produced by researchers at the University of Missouri.

Researchers at the University of Missouri have developed an app that combines a smartphone’s GPS, compass and imaging capabilities to calculate the exact location of distant objects and track their speed and direction.

Taking inspiration from the human eye, researchers at the University of Missouri have developed an inkjet print nozzle that prevents the printer head from becoming clogged when not in use.
