Over decades, cancer research pursued the dogma that cancer cells seed mainly from advanced tumors – based on the finding that early diagnosis and surgical…
Without a doubt, the seahorse belongs to Darwin's “endless forms most beautiful”. Its body form is one of a kind. It has neither a tail nor pelvic fin, it…
Ageing infrastructure systems pose great challenges for us to accommodate both, technical progress and steadily rising mobility. Requirements for technical…
“Current methods to detect infection require patients to undergo burdensome imaging procedures, such as an MRI, CAT scan, or X-rays,” said Ken Loh, a professor…
The Zika virus remains a mystery. Isolated from macaque monkeys in the Ziika Forest in Uganda in 1947, the virus was shown to infect humans not long after, but…
Researchers have created a new magnetic mirror-based device that could one day help cosmologists discover new details about ripples in space-time known as…
For years, small rechargeable lithium-ion batteries have reliably supplied billions of portable devices with energy. But manufacturers of high-energy…
