Scientists are using CRISPR to fast-track the domestication of a wild fruit. For roughly 10,000 years, farming communities ...

A research team developed two flavor-enhancing techniques that transform carob pulp into a delicious, sustainable alternative ...

Using AI, researchers identified one tiny molecular interaction that viruses need to infect cells. Disrupting it stopped the ...

A newly identified virus–cell hybrid structure allows viruses to spread faster and more aggressively by hitching a ride on ...

New research suggests that indoor tanning may age skin at the genetic level far faster than previously believed, potentially ...

A long-standing explanation for magnetoresistance may be incomplete. New evidence suggests a universal interfacial mechanism is at play. A major advance in spintronics came with the discovery of ...

A team at UNIGE has uncovered a geometric structure once thought to be purely theoretical at the core of quantum materials, opening the door to major advances in future electronics. How can ...

A new stem cell–based therapy challenges traditional pain treatment by using pain-sensing neurons to reduce inflammation and protect joints. Newly released preclinical data describes an unconventional ...

Would you rather fight a horse-sized duck or 100 duck-sized horses? As silly as it sounds, the question captures a real dilemma: do you go for a few high-quality options, or many lower-quality ones? A ...

Researchers demonstrated that newly developed molecules designed to block an immune checkpoint can trigger a powerful immune response against tumors. Scientists at MIT and Stanford University have ...

A new genome-wide mapping method finally shows how thousands of genes connect to drive disease. Biomedical researchers are working intensively to identify the genes that contribute to disease, with ...

A new twist on bromine-based flow batteries could make large-scale energy storage cheaper, safer, and far longer-lasting. Bromine-based flow batteries store and release energy through a chemical ...
