Advanced 3D reconstructions of the comb jelly’s aboral organ reveal a sensory system far more complex than scientists expected. The organ contains a wide variety of specialized cells and is closely ...

We all have a concept of reality. We know what is “fact” and what isn’t. However, the truth of the matter is that the definition of “real” is a mere construct of the brain. If that didn’t blow your ...

She’ll ruin us,” hissed one of the scientists as his hand clenched a shot glass. I came upon the poster session of the conference, where newbie scientists, mostly Ph.D. students, present findings that ...

Defect-filled lead-halide perovskites rival silicon solar cells because domain walls inside the material separate and guide charges. Researchers visualized these charge-transport networks using a ...

Biomolecular condensates were long believed to be simple liquid blobs inside cells. Researchers have now uncovered that some are actually supported by fine protein filaments forming an internal ...

Cornell researchers have uncovered a built-in molecular "gate" that controls the production of the molecule nitric oxide, a crucial signaling molecule throughout biology that in humans helps regulate ...

Experiments reveal that unsaturated lipid membranes promote vesicle fusion and DNA retention during freeze–thaw cycles, highlighting icy environments as potential drivers of protocell evolution. Today ...

Living cells are highly organized, yet they are not assembled using rigid blueprints or by following a predetermined plan.

Discover how to build a simple solar cell at home using everyday materials! This step-by-step tutorial demonstrates how to repurpose an aluminum can, a CD, copper wire, toothpaste, lemon juice, and a ...

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is worried about cell phones. Under the department, the Food and Drug Administration has removed webpages that asserted the devices are safe, according ...
