Large protein machines in the body carry out many of the cell's most essential tasks, from energy production to the ...

NanoImaging Services (NIS), a leading provider of integrated gene-to-structure and cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) services for structure-based drug discovery, is pleased to announce the ...

Every second, hundreds to thousands of molecules move through thousands of nuclear pores in each of your cells. A new high-definition view reveals the machine in action.

More than a century before quantum mechanics was born, Irish mathematician William Rowan Hamilton stumbled onto an idea that would quietly foreshadow one of the deepest truths in physics. While ...

Most space missions rely on chemical rockets for propulsion. Rockets must carry fuel, which increases spacecraft mass and limits their speed and travel distance. For decades, researchers have explored ...

Scientists have found a way to significantly boost “blue energy,” which generates electricity from the mixing of saltwater and freshwater. By coating nanopores with lipid molecules that create a ...

But another aspect of the Institute’s goals in this second phase is an educational component that will further enhance not ...

Scientists from VIB, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Saarland University, and  RPTU University Kaiserslautern-Landau have discovered that an important family of antioxidant enzymes can assemble in far ...

Scientists have captured the first detailed images of the body’s microscopic “cold sensor”, a protein called TRPM8. The discovery explains how our nerves detect chilly temperatures — and why compounds ...

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have developed a computational method capable of simulating the movements of some of the ...

The researchers at Tuskegee University, Alabama, reported their work in the Journal of Nanophotonics, confirming that they developed a photonic crystal light sail designed to address these limitations ...
