Childhood dementia is one of medicine’s most devastating and least understood frontiers: children lose memory, language, movement and independence as the developing brain progressively fails....
Neuromorphic Computing Gets a Common Language for Comparing Brain-Inspired Machines Neuromorphic engineering has entered a period of rapid expansion, with researchers building computing systems that...
A molecule once treated as a relatively obscure feature of cancer biology is moving toward the centre of the immuno-oncology conversation. B7-H3, also known as...
Lithium titanate, a material already widely recognized for its durability and safety in rechargeable batteries, has revealed an unexpected new capability. Researchers at Graz University...
Researchers at the University of California San Diego and collaborating institutions have identified and validated a previously overlooked pattern of DNA mutations in colorectal cancer,...
August 19, 2026 — A small spacecraft could one day sweep past the Moon, a near-Earth asteroid, and Mars’s moon Phobos while using a single...
Scripps Research assistant professor Tiantian Liu has received a five-year New Innovators Award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) to investigate...
A nearly $1 million grant from the U.S. National Science Foundation is launching a four-year investigation into one of evolution’s most consequential but least predictable...
A molecular switch linking two key chromatin regulators may help explain why cells in Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) age at extraordinary speed. In a study...
A material made from waste biomass could help transform one of wastewater treatment’s most promising technologies, according to a new review published in Biochar. Researchers...
Researchers at the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) and the Heidelberg Institute for Stem Cell Technology and Experimental Medicine (HI-STEM) have identified a mechanism that...
The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, or AMOC, has long been described as one of Earth’s great climate engines: a vast ocean conveyor that moves warm...
Cancer’s deadliest move is often not the growth of the original tumor, but its ability to travel. Metastasis, the spread of malignant cells from a...
For a blue mussel, eating can be a dangerous business. The animal survives by filtering seawater through its body, extracting microscopic algae and other particles...
A new study reports a way to switch on strong light–matter coupling inside a semiconductor terahertz cavity almost instantaneously, opening a path toward optical devices...
