Vapor-phase synthesis, a technique used to create very pure and scalable nanomaterials and coatings, has great promise for the electronic, optical, aerospace, energy and environment, and semiconductor industries.

Researchers at the University of Waterloo have developed two innovative artificial intelligence (AI) systems that significantly improve how hockey games can be analyzed using video footage without the need for expensive equipment.

Researchers are one step closer to understanding how some plants survive without nitrogen. Their work could eventually reduce the need for artificial fertilizer in crops such as wheat, maize, or rice.

Each year, about 100,000 Americans experience psychosis, a serious condition that disrupts thoughts and perceptions so profoundly that it can distort a person's sense of reality.

Researchers at the Nano Life Science Institute (WPI-NanoLSI), Kanazawa University, report in ACS Applied Nano Materials a new method to precisely measure nuclear elasticity—the stiffness or softness of the cell nucleus—in ...

Blindness profoundly affects people's lives. Around the world, several laboratories, including the Biomedical Neuroengineering Lab at Miguel Hernández University of Elche (UMH), are developing visual prostheses based on ...

Researchers at Göttingen Campus, Germany, have succeeded for the first time in examining the tiny synapses in the inner ear—the points of contact between the hair cells and the auditory nerve cells—at the molecular level. ...

Lithium-ion batteries (LiBs) are currently the most widely used rechargeable batteries worldwide, powering countless portable electronics, as well as hybrid and electric vehicles. While they are known to have notable advantages ...

An epigenetic factor that is essential for producing mature egg cells in mice has been identified by RIKEN researchers for the first time. This discovery could aid research into cases of infertility caused by immature eggs.

Artificial intelligence (AI) and "protein language" models can speed the design of monoclonal antibodies that prevent or reduce the severity of potentially life-threatening viral infections, according to a multi-institutional ...

For digestive system cancers (DSCs), higher physical activity levels are associated with lower risk and mortality, according to a study published online Oct. 30 in JAMA Oncology.

Around the globe, heart disease remains one of the top causes of death. Once patients begin to suffer from serious heart problems, like heart attacks and heart failure, the heart muscles become damaged and are difficult to ...
