Preventing the unintended contamination of extraterrestrial bodies is a key concern for space explorers, and these findings suggest the regolith on Mars is resilient—at least to tardigrade infestation ...

According to conventional wisdom, the compound microscope was invented at the beginning of the seventeenth century and made possible the immediate discovery of cells. This is nonsense. The textbook ...

In a development that could transform how scientists study cancer, neurodegeneration and inflammation, researchers have invented a new sensor that enables MRI machines to visualize molecular activity ...

Scientists at the Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) have developed a new way to determine atomic structures from nanocrystals previously considered unusable, ...

Researchers developed a protein-based sensor that lets MRI machines visualize molecular activity inside cells, potentially transforming study of cancer and disease.

After exposing notoriously resilient microscopic animals called tardigrades to simulated Martian soil, they began to move extremely slowly ...

Virtual apertures let researchers isolate and solve atomic structures from individual nanocrystals embedded in dense clusters, providing valuable new data for energy and pharmaceutical applications.

Researchers create biodegradable heart valves using shape-memory polymers and 3D bioprinting for safer cardiovascular procedures.

The list of conservative power couples with the dullest chemistry is long, but for the sake of brevity, let's examine those ...

Fluorescence microscopy has undergone a renaissance in the last decade. The introduction of green fluorescent protein (GFP) and two-photon microscopy has allowed systematic imaging studies of protein ...

This study presents valuable findings implicating nuclear export in the regulation of protein condensate behaviour and TDP-43 phase behaviour, suggesting a link to pathogenic aggregation in ALS/FTD.
