Alzheimer’s disease has long been described through the lens of neurons: the loss of synapses, the accumulation of amyloid-β plaques, and the formation of tau...

A new multinational study has found that sustained extreme heat is associated with a measurable rise in hospitalizations for mental and behavioural disorders, adding to...

Regulatory T cells, commonly known as Treg cells, are the immune system’s essential peacekeepers. They suppress excessive immune reactions, limit tissue damage and help preserve...

A new study reports a way to control the spin and motion of topological defects in a polariton condensate by using the geometry of a...

Spatial biology has promised a more complete view of how cells behave inside tissues, but that promise has often come with a steep technical price....

A new DNA-based nanoscale device could give scientists an unprecedented way to control how engineered objects cross cell membranes. In a study published in Nature...

Cold atoms have long been among the most precise tools in modern physics, enabling clocks that measure time to extraordinary accuracy, sensors that detect minute...

Living systems can perform astonishingly coordinated tasks without a central controller. A flock of birds can turn as one, a school of fish can reorganize...

Spectrometers have traditionally treated light as a two-stage problem. First, an optical system encodes the incoming light by separating or modulating its wavelengths. Then a...

The nucleus is often portrayed as a fortress, sealed off from the rest of the cell by a protective membrane. Yet every working cell must...

Flood risk in the United States may be moving in an unexpected direction: away from the nation’s biggest rivers and toward the smaller waterways that...

Insulin receptor prediction has entered a new computational phase with the proposed DC-BiGAN-IR framework, a deep-learning system designed to identify and characterize insulin receptors from...
