As an activist, Nandini Jammi has become accustomed to getting harassed online, often by faceless social media accounts. But this time was different: a menacing tweet was sent her way from an account with a profile picture of a woman with blonde hair and a beaming smile. The woman went only by a first name, "Jessica," and her short Twitter biography read: "If you are a bully I will fight you." In her tweet sent to Jammi last July, she said: "why haven't you cleaned your info from Adult Friend Finder? It's only been three years."

Late last year, I picked up John Carreyrou's "Bad Blood," which chronicles the long con pulled by Elizabeth Holmes, an entrepreneur who dropped out of Stanford at nineteen to found Theranos, a company that she claimed would reinvent the biomedical industry. I was instantly engrossed--"Bad Blood" unfolds like a thriller, offering a breathless barrage of details exposing how Holmes deceived her investors and colleagues at nearly every turn. Holmes wanted to disrupt the blood test: she boasted that her company was developing a method for running hundreds of lab tests from a single drop of blood, employing a machine called "The Edison" that used nanotechnology and robotics to analyze the sample. In just a few short years, thanks to Carreyrou's investigations and leaks from whistle-blowers, Holmes went from Silicon Valley's golden girl--named the youngest self-made female billionaire by Forbes--to a disgraced fraudster whose company was under investigation by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. "Bad Blood" does a formidable job charting the Theranos ordeal, but it doesn't get into Holmes's head.

Helping the elderly stay in their homes with an assistive robot, giving those with disabilities greater independence by increasing their mobility and improving safety for workers across industries with a single invention sounds ambitious, but that's just Genesis Robotics wants to do with its newly unveiled LiveDrive, a direct-drive robotic actuator. "I think we can even help people walk," Genesis Robotics and LiveDrive President Michael Gibney told International Business Times. "If we can get an exoskeleton, get people out of a wheel chair, we'll be able to really change people's lives." Genesis Robotics hopes to change the way robots are made with its LiveDrive actuator. LiveDrive aims to replace bulky motors, drive belts and gearboxes that limit existing robots in terms of load-bearing, precision, speed and flexibility of use.
