A nanosized extract of the plant thylakoid grana - the molecular engine behind photosynthesis - is transplanted into the eye's corneal cells, producing a key protective molecule when exposed to ...

Scientists have discovered a galaxy as it was 13 billion years ago, 800 million years after the Big Bang. It contains possible evidence of the universe's first stars and is one of the most chemically ...

Billions of years ago, a young spiral galaxy began to grow in a crowded part of the universe. It pulled in gas and small ...

NASA's Perseverance rover has spent more than three and a half years exploring Mars's Jezero Crater, building up a remarkable ...

Air Products (Lehigh Valley, Pa.) announced it has been selected by Samsung to supply industrial gases for its new advanced semiconductor fab in ...

Exposure to high-altitude hypoxia is associated with an increased risk of impaired brain structure and function, with oxidative stress and neuroinflammation widely recognized as key mechanisms ...

A new molecule takes an unexpected turn. Scientists created half-Möbius molecules, similar to the Möbius strips common in math classes, but half as twisty. It’s a type of topology, or geometrical ...

Chemists have discovered a new molecular shape, and it is twice as odd as the twisty Möbius strip. The Möbius strip is a looped band with a twist, such that something tiny, such as an ant, would have ...

When stressed, mitochondria can reduce oxygen levels inside chloroplasts by consuming more of it. This can help plants adjust to environmental changes. A new study from the University of Helsinki ...

Perovskite solar cells have long been the most exciting “almost there” technology in clean energy. In laboratories, they already rival the best silicon solar cells, converting more than 26 percent of ...

Our research group is interested in using the lens of human evolution to link DNA variation to phenotypes to uncover fundamental molecular processes that govern cellular and systems functions. Our ...

The 3-ft. tank filled with swimming goldfish looked like any other pet-shop aquarium, but the hamster hopping about inside the tank raised more than a few eyebrows. Sealed in an air-filled chamber, ...
