A collaboration led by #SFUPhysics researchers Chapin Korosec and Nancy Forde has created the first synthetic protein-based motor that moves like a Roomba and uses biological reactions to fuel itself. Their work adds to our understanding how molecular motors work in nature, and how they might be used in the future for medical applications.

Meet #SFUPhysics professor Gopi Mohlabeng! His work aims to solve some fundamental puzzles particle physics cannot explain, like what #darkmatter and #darkenergy are made of, and why there is more matter than anti-matter in the universe. Learn about the mysteries of the dark universe at his talk at #TRIUMF Saturday Morning Lectures this weekend at #SFU Surrey: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/saturday-morning-lectures-spring-2024-sfu-tickets-807327948627?aff=oddtdtcreator&_gl=1*rjw38o*_ga*MjAwNDc0OTg3NC4xNjg2NjEzNDIy*_ga_R4BCVYL1QF*MTcwNzMzMzQ2Ny41NzMuMS4xNzA3MzM1OTU5LjYwLjAuMA&utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_content=43013bc8-d9fa-4f82-89a6-c4018c15de6e #SFUScience #physics #particlephysics

Research on a new treatment for a deadly #honeybee parasite is getting a boost thanks to an exclusive collaboration agreement between Simon Fraser University and Véto-pharma. The treatment, developed by #SFUChemistry professor Erika Plettner paralyzes #varroa mites, causing them to fall off of bees.
