Over the past two decades, researchers have learned that DNA inside the cell nucleus naturally folds into a network of ...

Scientists at Rutgers University–Newark have developed a first-of-its-kind RNA-based nanotechnology that assembles itself inside living human cells and can be programmed to stop propagation of harmful ...

DNA's iconic double helix does more than "just" store genetic information. Under certain conditions it can temporarily fold into unusual shapes.

Unlike virtually every other cell in the human body, the syncytiotrophoblast doesn't have a single nucleus. It has roughly 10 ...

Earth observation data underpin climate science, disaster response, and environmental policy, yet inconsistent grid definitions often limit their accuracy and reuse. Researchers now present a unified, ...

The potential of microrobots is enormous. These miniature objects can be designed to carry out actions within the body, such as sensing biomarkers, manipulating objects like blood clots, or delivering ...

This puzzle is known as the problem of time, and it remains one of the most persistent obstacles to a unified theory of ...

Abstract: Most vacuum electronic devices (VEDs) have cathode emission operating in a space-charge limited regime, indicating that the self-field of space charges limits the current density that can be ...

In hydrothermal vent fields, a small snail evolved an iron-reinforced shell. Here’s how it challenges assumptions about ...

A study shows that polarons can host stable atomic distortion patterns, reshaping how charge and energy move in materials ...

UCSF scientists discover that the spindle, the structure that divides chromosomes equally during mitosis, actually gets stronger when it is stretched.

In research that could shed light on the growth and formation of complex tissue architectures, Brown University engineers ...
