Last summer, in a Harvard robotics laboratory, an insect took flight. Half the size of a paper clip, weighing less than a tenth of a...

The main objective of the International Summer School is to provide in depth education on techniques of recording and analyzing multi-modal data from invasive and...

Practitioners of DNA origami have spent the better part of the past decade folding the molecule into minuscule smiley faces, boxes, letters of the alphabet...

The ability to short-circuit debilitating tremors in disease states with implantable stimulators is nothing short of remarkable. The same can be said for cochlear prosthetics...

Scientists have made a step forward in their ability to mimic the sense of touch.A team from the US and China made an experimental array...

Reporting in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, Tomás González-Villa and colleagues devised a recipe for improving beer foam. They identified a gene in...

A study at UW-Madison is the first to show that human stem cells can successfully implant themselves in the brain and then heal neurological deficits,...

Genetically engineered immune cells can drive an aggressive type of leukaemia into retreat, a small clinical trial suggests. The results of the trial — done...

For the first time, scientists reporting in Nature Medicine have created lab-grown kidneys in rats that produce urine after transplantation. Bioengineered rat kidneys developed by...

Better diagnosis and treatment of cancer could hinge on the ability to better understand a single cell at its molecular level. New research offers a...

The effort is part of a sweeping movement to grab hold of our genetic data and directly improve the way our bodies behave — a...

The researchers have engineered small molecules that support long-lived quantum coherences. Coherences are the macroscopically observable behavior of quantum superpositions. Superpositions are a fundamental quantum...

But in low doses, hydrogen sulfide could greatly enhance plant growth, leading to a sharp increase in global food supplies and plentiful stock for biofuel...

Their discovery in mice is likely to further fuel a recent scramble by researchers to identify roles for long-neglected bits of DNA within the genomes...

  Researchers at Case Western Reserve School of Medicine have discovered a technique that directly converts skin cells to the type of brain cells destroyed...
