Researchers at the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics (DICP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the University of Delaware have reported a way to produce…
Skyrmions are three-dimensional structures that occur in magnetic materials. They are magnetic vortices a few nanometers in size in which atomic elementary…
One might think that the genetic machinery of higher plants was invented by a bureaucrat who likes to pick the most complicated option: Much of the plants’…
Not just since climate change has it been of enormous interest to understand how populations adapt to new environmental conditions. Scientists assume that most…
A new type of microscope may give doctors a better idea of how safely and effectively a medication will perform in the body.

Temnothorax americanus is a slavemaking ant found in northeastern America. These tiny social insects neither rear their offspring nor search for food…
Lecture and Poster contributions cover the following topics:
The noise of the seven hydraulic cylinders responsible for dynamic load application gives an impression of the force they transmit to the bearing. In…
Two-dimensional, flexible, tear-resistant, lightweight, and versatile are all properties that apply to graphene, which is often described as a miracle…
Characterizing and predicting how electrically-heated silicate glass behaves is important because it is used in a variety of devices that drive technical…
The lung is a highly complex organ in which a great number of very different cells have to work together to enable normal breathing and protection against…
DNA replication is a complex process in which a helicase ring separates the DNA molecule's two entwined and encoded strands, allowing each to precisely…
Quantum computers will process significantly more information at once compared to today's computers. But the building blocks that contain this information -…
In a recent study published online in the Journal of Bacteriology, biochemistry professor Michael Cox and his team describe blasting E. coli bacteria with…
Soils all over the Earth's surface are rigorously tested and managed. But what about soils that are down in the murky depths? Although not traditional soils,…
