The Detroit News and Detroit Free Press both reported Friday that GM is moving the engineers -- who have been working on the fuel-cell technology in the company's advanced development laboratories division -- to the company's core production engineering division, which designs vehicles to be brought into production.
Researchers also hope that stem cell research will provide them with more information about human development and the causes of disease, and lead to changes in the development and testing of drugs.
To do that, Capellas says Compaq will slap its well-known brand name on a wide range of products: from portable organizers to the Himalaya servers that power AOL's e-mail system to products still in development that will blur the lines between computers and electronic appliances like cell phones and stereos.
In another exciting development, researchers at Georgia Tech have developed a self-charging power cell that's able to directly convert mechanical energy into chemical energy, making it possible to harvest up to five times more energy from footsteps.
