Tiny fiber networks, long overlooked and largely invisible to existing imaging tools, are now at the center of a breakthrough ...

The X-Ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission (XRISM), a joint mission between the Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) ...

Cells do more than carry out chemical reactions. New theoretical work suggests they may also generate usable electrical energy through constant motion in their membranes, offering a fresh way to think ...

Protein helps you build muscle and even powers the immune system. But it’s not always easy to get enough, especially if you follow a plant-based diet. Protein is an essential building block for life ...

The key to understanding the drivers of physical and neurological disease lies in part with understanding the microscopic ...

Despite their size, the robots can navigate liquids, respond to their environment and operate without external control.

Scientists are learning to engineer light in rich, multidimensional ways that dramatically increase how much information a ...

A new kind of microscope is giving scientists a way to watch life inside cells with a clarity that feels almost unfair.

Researchers have created microscopic robots so small they’re barely visible, yet smart enough to sense, decide, and move completely on their own. Powered by light and equipped with tiny computers, the ...
