An international team led by researchers from the University Medical Center Göttingen (UMG), Germany, has used advanced ...

A giant inflatable E. coli has appeared in central Brno, highlighting the city’s electron microscopy tradition and the upcoming Days of Electron Microscopy festival.

Electrons are tiny and constantly in motion. How they behave in a crystal lattice determines key material properties: electrical conductivity, magnetism, or novel quantum effects. Anyone aiming to ...

Researchers have revealed how bacteria precisely control the genes that trigger cell division. The study shows that the MraZ protein, which normally forms a donut-shaped structure, must bend and ...

Lithium was supposed to be soft. The metal bends easily in bulk form, stretches before it breaks, and deforms the way you ...

Scientists at Caltech have figured out how to precisely engineer tiny three-dimensional (3D) metallic pieces with nanoscale dimensions. The process can work with any metal or metal alloy and yields ...

Researchers planned to test how carbon fiber reacted to intense heat and humidity, but they found out something else entirely.

A new study shows cells use dual RNA signals to control microRNA lifespan. This selective process protects gene regulation ...

To survive in areas where it is difficult to photosynthesize, some organisms adopt unique strategies. Osaka Metropolitan University researchers have found that a freshwater alga captures far-red light ...

I’m a third-year PhD student here at the University of Florida. I work under Dr. Aitkaliyeva, and I do research on metallic nuclear fuels. So basically, we irradiate these fuels in a reactor, and then ...

Scientists confirm a Bronze Age iron artifact from Sanxingdui was made from extraterrestrial material, revealing ancient ...
