Small, adsorbent ‘fins’ collect humidity rather than swim through water

Clean, safe water is a limited resource and access to it depends on local bodies of water. But even dry regions have some water vapor in the air. To harvest…

An enzyme with a smart friend

The Kowalinski Group at EMBL Grenoble has revealed how one enzyme hitches a ride on another to recognise tRNA. Imagine your body as a highly organised factory where workers tirelessly…

Shaping the future of polymer nanocarriers

Recent findings reveal how secondary structure in helical polymers influences their aggregation and size control. Light-triggered release offers tailored solutions for controlled substance delivery. Scientists have taken a significant step…

Novel synthesis of fluorinated molecules

… with potential in drug research developed. A research team from Kiel has described a method for directly converting carbon-hydrogen bonds in carboxylic acids into carbon-fluorine bonds. Carboxylic acids are…

How cells boost gene expression

Research team at Göttingen University discovers important function of antisense non-coding RNA. The function of non-coding RNA in the cell has long been a mystery to researchers. Unlike coding RNA,…

Mapping the heart to prevent damage caused by a heart attack

Scientists at the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute in Australia have produced a first of its kind integrated map of heart cells which unlocks the process of cardiac fibrosis – a…
