Researchers at The University of Texas at Austin have uncovered key principles that govern how DNA "origami" structures fold, findings that could make nanoscale materials faster and easier to manufacture. DNA origami is a ...
A new research paper from the University of Kent School of Psychology has found that sexual objectification increases when men are sexually aroused, challenging common Western beliefs that this behavior is purely driven by ...
For more than half a century, materials scientists have struggled with how to simulate the complexity of polymer materials. An individual chain can comprise tens of thousands of atoms, a melt or composite contains billions, ...
Scientists may soon stop hunting for new materials—and start designing them to order. For the first time, Northwestern University scientists have demonstrated that megalibraries—tools that dramatically accelerate materials ...
You're on the fourth human mission to Mars, and you've been tasked with establishing the first self-sustaining food crop on a Martian settlement. You're nervous because you're using a new type of fungi called beneficial fungi, ...
Many of the most exciting discoveries in science involve highly specialized knowledge and making connections between far-flung facts. Scientists must combine deep analysis with broad reasoning strategies.
If you're trying to stand out on LinkedIn, it might seem like posting about your own achievements is a smart approach. But new research from The University of Texas at Arlington suggests a different strategy: highlight others.
An interdisciplinary student research team at the University of Waterloo has achieved an advance in materials science with the creation of a tissue-like hydrogel for artificial muscles to make soft robots move.
The frequency of natural disasters is increasing, and hence disaster responders are called on more than ever before. During disaster response, the focus of health and well-being is typically on the residents of the disaster-impacted ...
NASA scientists have developed an artificial intelligence tool to take on a longstanding challenge in ocean waters. In a study recently published in the Earth and Space Science journal, researchers reported the tool was able ...
