Cyborg technology is a revolutionary development in rehabilitation medicine. It allows the brain and nervous system to manipulate specially engineered devices that help people regain the use of impaired body function. Once a dream of science fiction, this revolutionary technology is now becoming a reality. Demostrates a deep brain stimulation that can help stop the violent shaking of victims of Parkinson's disease. Presents two professors from the State University of New York and Duke University who discuss their cutting-edge research.

Host Lisa Van Pay meets with NSF-funded scientists Yang-Shao Horn and Yogi Surendranath at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology as they take on the hydrogen energy challenge.
Join Adabot and friends for a campfire musical. They will learn all about Ohm's Law: the foundation of electrical engineering. Part of the "Circuit Playground" series.
NASA robotics engineer Sandeep Yayathi explains how he designs and builds humanoid robots that can work alongside astronauts. Part of the "Design Squad Nation" series.
Nate Ball uses science to develop mechanical devices that help improve life. Some of his designs push technology to its limits, like his portable, refrigerated vaccine backpack.
One of the fifteen parts of the "Farm to Market" series. Explores the journey this popular fiber takes from the time it is a small green plant through harvest, ginning, spinning, weaving, and sewing.
To traverse the surface of the Moon or Mars, a vehicle must be able to think for itself. At NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory's testing ground, a team of scientists demonstrates the rover that will soon wander over the Martian landscape.
Arizona gets plenty of sunlight, and researchers there are working hard to turn that energy into electricity. At Arizona State University, graduate student Brad Brennan makes and tests new materials that will allow industry to build smaller, cheaper, flexible photovoltaic solar cells that can go almost anywhere.
What can scientists and engineers learn from birds? In this episode, host Emily Graslie discusses how studying birds has helped inform human engineering and design. Part of "The Brain Scoop" series.
Marvie loves watching the planes land at airports, and she made a diorama of one for her friends Justine, the ladybug. She used a cardboard box, paint, and backyard treasures to create her diorama. Part of the "Marvie" series.
Shawn and his friends go to the factory to see a prototype for a new train. While at the factory, they help build trains and have to rescue Rusty Robot after an accident occurs. Part of the "Shawn and Team" series.
A scientist from NASA explains the basic characteristics of a comet. Students will make their own comet by using a wide range of craft materials. Part of the “DIY Space Classroom Activities” series.
Anita Kalathil shows some of the latest chemistry projects taking place at Proctor & Gamble and what her typical day is like inside and outside the lab. Find out what it’s like to be a chemical engineer.
Under Prospecta Colombia 2012, an event organized by the Universidad Nacional Abierta y a Distancia, issues were raised and discussed related to the growth and development of cities. Nerdo Cavernas talks with the most prominent speakers present at this important event.
How do you plot a course to Mars, from one moving planet to another? What are the impacts of space travel on the body and can human beings survive the trip? Looks at the plans for a flight to the Red Planet.
Meet three mechanical engineers who are designing the next generation of jet engines at a major U.S. company. They explain how their curiosity about how things work led them to advanced engineering degrees and cool careers with aircraft engines. Part of the "Career Connections" series.
Explore the natural gene bank of the domestic apple located in Central Asia. Viewers learn about efforts to preserve the genetic diversity of apples. Scientists are using conservation and genetic engineering to aid the process. Part of "The Botany of Desire" series.
Can people in remote rural areas who are far from electric generating plants get power for their lights and appliances? Solar cells make it possible. Mechanical and electrical engineers at the US Department of Energy's Sandia National Laboratories take viewers through the process of designing and installing solar cell panels in remote locations.
A few years ago, the city of Seattle faced an overwhelming garbage crisis. City planners and engineers describe how they created a recycling program that has become a model for the nation. Shows from beginning to end how the recycling process gets done.
Students explore electric current and the role it plays in electrical circuits. They also compare parallel and series circuits. The video concludes by demonstrating some fundamental concepts of electrical safety. Other important terminology includes resistance, switch, fuse, circuit breaker, short circuit, ground prong, and electric potential difference.
