A ground-breaking twist to the CRISPR tool—aka "genetic scissors"—is being put to use to edit plant genomes by scientists from the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Plant Physiology, signaling a methodology change. The discovery, ...
The damage caused by climate change over this past year was at times so immense it was hard to comprehend. In Pakistan alone, extreme summer flooding killed thousands, displaced millions and caused over $40 billion in losses. ...
The breakthrough came in an impossibly small slice of time, less than it takes a beam of light to move an inch. In that tiny moment, nuclear fusion as an energy source went from far-away dream to reality. The world is now ...
Nuclear fusion holds huge promise as a source of clean, abundant energy that could power the world.
Researchers in the US have finally fulfilled an objective that was set decades ago: the achievement of "ignition"—getting more energy out than you put in—using nuclear fusion.
A team led by Prof. Jiang Bin from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) made a series of breakthroughs in chemical dynamics simulations of molecular, condensed phase and interfacial systems by applying ...
Researchers in the Salinas Lab in The University of New Mexico's Department of Biology have discovered an immune structure in the nasal cavities of rainbow trout that scientists previously didn't know existed. The new knowledge ...
The U.S. Department of Energy on Tuesday announced that a national lab in California made a "major scientific breakthrough"—namely, that it produced a nuclear fusion reaction that resulted in a net energy gain, a condition ...
Scientists announced Tuesday that they have for the first time produced more energy in a fusion reaction than was used to ignite it—a major breakthrough in the decades-long quest to harness the process that powers the sun.
The Department of Energy is planning an announcement Tuesday about a "major scientific breakthrough" at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, one of several sites worldwide where researchers have been trying to develop ...
