The key idea behind our framework is that life produces molecules with purpose, while nonliving chemistry does not. Cells ...

The potential for sending payloads and people to Mars is therefore becoming plausible in a way that it never has before. Mars ...

This study presents SynaptoGen, a differentiable extension of connectome models that links gene expression, protein-protein interaction probabilities, synaptic multiplicity, and synaptic weights, and ...

Quantum effects are no longer confined to ultra-cold chips and vacuum chambers. For the first time, researchers have deliberately engineered a controllable quantum bit inside living cells and tied it ...

As the immune system weakens with age, scientists have found a way to restore some of its lost strength. By delivering mRNA ...

They achieved this by embedding an elastomer inside the exoskeleton to control each of its segments and then mounting it on a ...

In a breakthrough that defies nature, Northwestern University and Stanford University synthetic biologists have created a new ...

Natural biological systems cannot efficiently convert waste CO₂ or its derivatives into useful building-block chemicals at a scale that can keep pace with rising atmospheric carbon. Engineer a fully ...

A research team at Duke University has developed a new AI framework that can uncover simple, understandable rules that govern ...

The physics of thermodynamics, which involves quantities like heat and entropy, offers well-established tools for determining how far from equilibrium an idealised system of particles is. But when it ...

It’s full speed ahead for the U.S. Navy’s state-of-the-art capability for detecting biological warfare agents onboard and at sea. Since its initial fielding in 2023, nearly one hundred of the Enhanced ...

Sandun Fernando, Ph.D., was recently named a Fellow of the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers, ASABE, during the organization’s international meeting in Toronto. Sandun Fernando ...
