For decades, lab-made antibodies have been used to support patients fighting specific diseases. These treatments have become a cornerstone of cancer therapy and were among the first medical solutions developed to combat COVID-19. However, producing […]

Before arriving at Janelia three years ago, Postdoctoral Scientist Antonio Fiore was designing and building optical instruments like microscopes and spectrometers. Fiore, a physicist by training, came to the Pedram Lab to try something new.This […]

In 2019, Caltech researchers demonstrated a new method to use light to control active matter—a kind of material made up of individual energy-consuming pieces that act as a whole to create mechanical motion. The process […]

According to leading experts, the following topics must now feature at the very top of the political agenda: the transition to a circular economy, the promotion of research and innovation, the dismantling of legal hurdles, […]

A sustainable food system for a growing global population requires a more diversified and climate-neutral protein production. After five years of research in the recently completed CirkAlg project, led by Chalmers University of Technology, circular […]

Researchers at the National University of Singapore have reported crossing the blood–brain barrier with help from a modified Lactobacillus plantarum. By delivering an appetite-regulating hormone directly to the olfactory epithelium, the hormone was able to […]

As global efforts to combat climate change intensify, microalgae stand out as an underutilized yet promising resource. New research has highlighted microalgae’s capacity as a solution in the fight against climate change, but researchers warn […]

A smoke sensor developed by La Trobe University academics that has the potential to save hundreds of millions of dollars in lost wine production is in the process of being rolled out across the wine […]

The microarchitecture of fossil pterosaur bones could hold the key to lighter, stronger materials for the next generation of aircraft, new research has found.This article was originally published here

Researchers at Rutgers University-New Brunswick have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) tool that will help predict endangered whale habitat, guiding ships along the Atlantic coast to avoid them. The tool is designed to prevent deadly […]
