There’s practically nothing in the news these days that makes me feel good or hopeful. But this week’s AT wrap-up is working really hard to change that. Thank you, technology and its manipulators, for making me see the good in humanity again. There’s a 3D printed heart on a chip, touchable ink for braille readers, a touch-free cellphone and more. Get all your good news here!!!<\/p>\n
