뇌와 이야기하다 – 뇌 질환 치료의 새 시대
뇌는 우리 몸의 모든 기능을 통제한다. 만약 뇌의 언어를 이해할 수 있다면, 그리고 그 언어로 다시 몸에게 이야기를 건다면 뇌 손상이나 뇌 관련 질환으로 잃어버렸던 기능을 회복할 수 있지 않을까? GE글로벌리서치연구소에서는 뇌의 이야기에 귀를 기울이고 있다. 뇌 질환의 진단과 치료에서 혁신적인 변화가 우리를 기다린다.

Wind, meet water. In Germany’s Swabian-Franconian Forest, you’ll find the world’s tallest (584 ft) and first-ever wind turbines integrated with pumped storage hydroelectric power. So how does it work? At the base of each wind turbine sits a reservoir. Water flowing downhill from the reservoirs will power the hydro plant when electricity is needed. When there’s an energy surplus, the hydro power will push the water back up the hill to the reservoirs, where it will act as a giant battery for the wind turbines. So no matter if the wind is blowing or not, electricity will always be flowing
Spooky season is here, but don't let your annual mammogram scare you. Nearly 30% of women in the U.S. admit to skipping breast screenings out of fear. That's why @gehealthcare engineers decided to better the experience with a mammography system designed by women, for women. Melding comforting design with cutting edge technology, the Senographe Pristina aims to humanize the process for patients, technicians, and radiologists. #BCAM #Mammography #breastcancerawareness
Colder weather is on the way. If you’re in Winnipeg, Canada, that means ice testing is too. There, @geaviation test engines are pummeled with sub-zero winds and ice. The harsh conditions on the ground make sure engines are ready to face the elements in the air. #AVgeek #jetengine #engineering
If you had X-ray vision, how would you use it? These GE Research engineers use it to capture data from lower-than-surface-level errors in additively manufactured metal parts. Here, they’re analyzing that data, inspecting every layer of metal to find the source of the error. This process helps them design smarter software for additive manufacturing machines. Which means better, stronger parts. That's a pretty good use of a superpower, if you ask us. #AdditiveManufacturing #Data #3DPrinting
Slice into an additively-made part from @geadditive and you’ll see geometries once thought impossible with traditional manufacturing methods. Why the hype? Engineers can now find greater strength and efficiency through design. #engineering #additive #3Dprinting #manufacturing
