Exploring the self-organizing origins of life

Catalytic molecules can form metabolically active clusters by creating and following concentration gradients—this is the result of a new study by scientists from the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization ...

Interactive networks for capturing gas with high selectivity

The selective extraction of specific gas molecules from gaseous mixtures is a complex chemical challenge, with success offering significant commercial and environmental rewards. Capturing carbon dioxide (CO2) from industrial ...

Simultaneous synthesis and fixing of covalent organic frameworks

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are versatile materials composed of interconnected organic molecules held together by covalent bonds. These frameworks can be constructed in two-dimensional or three-dimensional (3D) forms ...

Rushing to save coral reefs from global warming

Dr. Núria Viladrich of Spain was forced by the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 to cancel a planned visit to the US Virgin Islands where she wanted access to the multi-colored corals populating the reefs around the islands.
