When the sun goes down, solar panels stop working. This is the fundamental hurdle of renewable energy: how to save the sun's power for a rainy day—or a cold night. Chemists at UC Santa Barbara have ...

Scientists have uncovered a promising strategy for tackling glioblastoma by targeting a gene that appears to be essential for the cancer’s survival. Using laboratory models, the team identified a ...

UVA Comprehensive Cancer Center scientists have identified a molecule that blocks the gene responsible for glioblastoma, raising hopes that the molecule could become a much-needed new treatment for ...

Scientists have discovered the largest organic molecule containing sulfur — a key ingredient for life — ever identified in interstellar space. The researchers call the discovery a “missing link” in ...

Abstract: In the process of targeted drug molecule design, models that incorporate three-dimensional structures show better performance than target-free models. This is because the interactions ...

The U.S. government is divesting from mRNA vaccines, but will other uses of the technology be spared? In a time of uncertainty, scientists worry that revolutionary treatments for cancer, immune ...
