Study of malaria parasite genomes paves the way for new, more effective treatments. Researchers at University of California San Diego analyzed the genomes of hundreds of malaria parasites to determine…
Within a cell, DNA carries the genetic code for building proteins. To build proteins, the cell makes a copy of DNA, called mRNA. Then, another molecule called a ribosome reads…
Old DSMZ treasures with new potential. Researchers name newly described bacteria exclusively after female scientists. Researchers led by Dr Imen Nouioui and Prof. Dr Yvonne Mast from the Department Bioresources…
Improvements in super-resolution microscopy have wide-ranging implications for biological and biomedical research. A team of researchers led by Anna-Karin Gustavsson at Rice University has developed an innovative imaging platform that…
Nerve cells in the retina were analysed at TU Wien (Vienna) using microelectrodes. They show astonishingly stable behavior – good news for retina implants. The retina is often referred to…
…shows promise as antimicrobial agent. Rice scientists develop nanocrystals that kill bacteria under visible light. Newly developed halide perovskite nanocrystals (HPNCs) show potential as antimicrobial agents that are stable, effective…
