Gold-diamond nanodevice for hyperlocalised cancer therapy
Using a chemical method to attach gold nanorods to the surface of a diamond nanocrystal, the authors have invented a new biocompatible nanodevice. It is capable of delivering extremely localised heating from a near-infrared laser aimed at the gold nanorods, while accurately sensing temperature with the nanocrystals.

Heating and cooling with light leads to ultrafast DNA diagnostics
New technology developed by bioengineers at the University of California, Berkeley, promises to make a workhorse lab tool cheaper, more portable and many times faster by accelerating the heating and cooling of genetic samples with the switch of a light.
The researchers were able to cycle from 131 degrees to 203 degrees Fahrenheit 30 times in less than five minutes.
