Plasmonic waveguides open the possibility to develop dramatically miniaturized optical devices and provide a promising route towards the next-generation of…
In photosynthesis, plants produce carbohydrates from CO2 using light. During this process, they also release oxygen. This biochemically complex process takes…
In separate studies published online in Nature on Aug. 1, two independent research teams report the discovery of a new, rare type of cell in the human airway….
A team of UCLA electrical and computer engineers has created a physical artificial neural network — a device modeled on how the human brain works — that can…
According to the American Diabetes Association, approximately 1.25 million American children and adults have type 1 diabetes. Jason Bini, PhD, at the Yale…
“We got a lot of 'oh wow!' responses, from eight-year-olds wanting to know how it worked to EPA officials wondering why no one had done this before,” says…
In a pilot study, palaeobiologists from the GeoZentrum Nordbayern at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) have now succeeded in…
During human evolution, the size of the brain increased, especially in a particular part of the brain called the neocortex. The neocortex is responsible for…
In the course of global climate change, scientists are observing the increase of low-oxygen areas in the ocean, also termed oxygen minimum zones (OMZs)….
Researchers at the University of Zurich have developed a novel method for analyzing cells and their components called Iterative Indirect Immunofluorescence…
Hollow molecular structures known as COFs (covalent organic frameworks), which could serve as selective filters or containers for other substances and have…
The new technique does not rely on cutting or printing on the material, as most other self-folding origami techniques do. It is also different from continuous…
He also faces the reality of life outside – outside the gates of Jacobs University Bremen. Ullrich is not someone who hides in the laboratory. In “Science goes…
The Bio-based Industries Consortium (BIC) and the European Union’s ‘Horizon 2020’ Research and Innovation Framework Programme, both co-funding bodies of the…
The observation that embryos of some species still undergo normal development after large tissue blocks have been removed is not new. Researchers had already…
Climate change has accelerated sea-ice retreat in the Arctic Ocean. This has various negative impacts including acidification of ocean water and potential…
