Researchers have made a breakthrough in the development of a camera so sensitive it can detect a single photon.
Cellular identity is defined by gene activity that drives intercellular communication and is pivotal to understand mechanisms underlying multicellular organisms. In a new report Abbas Ghaddar and a research team in biology, ...
Electron tunneling associated with ferritin was proposed as early as 1988, but it is still viewed skeptically despite substantial evidence that it occurs. In our recent paper published in IEEE Transactions on Molecular, Biological ...
Using a complex cast of metal-studded pigments, proteins, enzymes, and co-enzymes, photosynthetic organisms can convert the energy in light into the chemical energy for life. And now, thanks to a study published June 14 in ...
