A massive rotating disk galaxy that was well-formed when the universe was 10% of its current age was discovered by the National Science Foundation.
MIT chemists have developed a protocol to reduce the time it takes to generate synthetic proteins.
After noticing unusual blood clotting in many patients diagnosed with COVID-19, doctors at Emory University believe there may be a connection to the thickness of their blood, known as hyperviscosity, with inflammation and clotting.
Disrupted nightly sleep and clogged arteries tend to sneak up on us as we age. And while both disorders may seem unrelated, a new UC Berkeley study helps explain why they are, in fact, pathologically intertwined.
Scientists at MIT used machine learning to find distinct points enabled them to split the world’s oceans into different “provinces” based on ecological makeup.
Genetic research shows the mix of ideas and material culture, with people intermingling, came before cities began to rise, which is the opposite of previous assumptions.
Two of Berkeley's fellows are investigating a certain type of aquatic bacteria that seems to use iron to travel on a magnetic field.
Astronomers have started to look towards light from other galaxies, believing that the light quality being emitted may hold answers about the galaxies themselves.
Researchers have discovered a new set of signals that cells send and receive to prompt one type of fat cell to convert fat into heat.
OHSU algorithm could be useful in maintaining safe levels of glucose
A study looked at prolonged sleep deprivation and the gut's role in fruit flies, according to the Havard Gazette.
Engineers have put thousands of artificial brain synapses on a chip that is smaller than a piece of confetti, MIT News reported.
Quanta Magazine has published on the question of how time works, highlighting Swiss physicist Nikolas Gisin’s papers which have been said to clear up the “fog around physics,” according to an April 7 report.
Ion-based technology may enable energy-efficient simulations of the brain’s learning process, for neural network AI systems.
UCLA engineers have designed a thin adhesive film that could upgrade a consumer smartwatch into a powerful health monitoring system.
Stanford University researchers have demonstrated the ability of their engineered, artificial synapsis to communicate with living cells, a potential step in creating computers that can interface directly with the human brain.
Neuroscientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) may have made a breakthrough in understanding Alzheimer’s, involving a molecular pathway for which there are already medicines approved by the Food and Drug Administration that can suppress it.
A University of Colorado Denver team of researchers have discovered a new way to form liquid crystal elastomers into material that has the potential to match the properties of tissues such as cartilage.
