Chemical engineers have devised a simpler process for incorporating hydrophobic drugs into tablets or other drug formulations,...
A new experiment offers the cleanest proof yet for magnetism-driven transitions of metals to insulators.
A team developed a new method for synthesizing a novel crystalline form of silicon with a hexagonal structure that could potentially be used to create next-generation...
Scientists have succeeded in reversibly slowing down cellular processes. A team of biophysicists were able to show in experiments that cells can be transferred...
Increasing a protein concentrated in brown fat appears to lower blood sugar, promote insulin sensitivity, and protect against fatty liver disease by remodeling...
A highly-detailed VLA image indicates that the jets of material propelled outward by young stars much more massive than the Sun may be very different from...
Researchers found that the sleep quality of the surprisingly high number of children who share a bed with their pets is indistinguishable from those who sleep...
Dark 'eyeliner' feathers of peregrine falcons act as sun shields to improve the birds' hunting ability, a new scientific study suggests. Scientists have long speculated...
A new miniature 3D model of human bone marrow has just been described. The model may help clinicians predict which patients will benefit from a new...
Engineers have developed a technology that turns a conventional light microscope into what's called a super-resolution microscope. It improves the microscope's...
