A team at IBM Research has assembled a strange new ring-shaped molecule that bends around like a more complicated Möbius strip ...

A ring of 13 carbon atoms and two chlorine atoms has a remarkable molecular structure that means you would have to go around the loop four times to return to your starting position ...

An international team of scientists from IBM, The University of Manchester, Oxford University, ETH Zurich, EPFL and the University of Regensburg have created and characterized a molecule unlike any ...

Most bacteria, including many bacterial pathogens, are surrounded by an outer protective layer of sugar molecules, known as a capsule. This primarily protects the bacteria from environmental ...

Nascimur uno modo, multis morimu ('in one way we are born, in many ways we die'), and there is probably no single way to age. Indeed, so far there is no single accepted explanation or mechanism of ...

The brain relies on real-time delivery of oxygen and nutrients through its microvasculature, which threads through neural ...

Abstract: We present methods to improve the localization accuracy in wide-field 3D single-molecule double-helix microscopy. We analyze the optical efficiency of the system, the fundamental limit for ...
