From brighter TV screens to better medical diagnostics and more efficient solar panels, new Curtin-led research has discovered how to make more molecules stick to the surface of tiny nanocrystals,…
Researchers at LMU University Hospital have discovered a new molecular switch that protects against cell death. Programmed cell death protects the body against cancer and other diseases. A team of…
The protein GBP1 is a vital component of our body’s natural defence against pathogens. This substance fights against bacteria and parasites by enveloping them in a protein coat, but how…
DOE tasks a Jefferson Lab team to evaluate whether proton therapy cancer treatments may serve as a safer alternative to treatments using radioactive isotopes. Radiation therapy techniques have been used…
Perovskite Tandem Solar Cells, a new type of solar cell technology, promise highest efficiencies at a low price tag and could revolutionize energy production in space. Together with his collaborators…
Messenger RNA, or mRNA for short, serves as a blueprint for proteins. When mRNA is no longer needed, it has to be degraded. Director Elena Conti and her team at…
The mystery of why life uses molecules with specific orientations has deepened with a NASA-funded discovery that RNA — a key molecule thought to have potentially held the instructions for…
Dr. Ksenia Fedosova from the Cluster of Excellence Mathematics Münster, along with an international research team, has proven a conjecture in string theory that physicists had proposed regarding certain equations….
A new theory, that explains how light and matter interact at the quantum level has enabled researchers to define for the first time the precise shape of a single photon….
Borrowing principles from pest management, ASU researchers aim to extend survival rate, quality of life for cancer patients. Just as crop-devouring insects evolve to resist pesticides, cancer cells can increase…
A research team from the University of Freiburg and the Medical Center- University of Freiburg has developed a novel biomimetic speaking valve technology that could significantly increase the safety of…
ISTA scientists take a deep look into memory processing inside the hippocampus. Resembling a seahorse, as its name implies from the Greek words “hippos” (horse) and “kampus” (sea monster), the…
A large number of 2D materials like graphene can have nanopores – small holes formed by missing atoms through which foreign substances can pass. The properties of these nanopores dictate many…
KIT researchers produce metamaterial with different extension and compression properties than conventional materials. With this material, the working group headed by Professor Martin Wegener at KIT’s Institute of Applied Physics…
Most people think of coffee cups, bathroom tiles or flower pots when they hear the word “ceramic”. Not so Frank Clemens. For the research group leader in Empa’s Laboratory for…
New deep learning architecture enables higher efficiency. It is the computational processing of images that reveals the finest details of a sample placed under all kinds of different light microscopes….
Humans and animals move with remarkable economy without consciously thinking about it by utilizing the natural oscillation patterns of their bodies. A new tool developed by researchers at the Technical…
AI-enhanced metalenses achieve high-resolution, full-color imaging for compact optical systems. Modern imaging systems, such as those used in smartphones, virtual reality (VR), and augmented reality (AR) devices, are constantly evolving…
