You can build a telescope, a microscope and a UFO with the Lego Creator 3-in-1 Space Exploration Telescope review, but I'd only bother with the former.

Neurons have a "hibernation mode." Scientists discover how brain cells use RNA tentacles to lock their protein factories together to survive when energy is low.

A new study reveals that the twin enzymes MNK1 and MNK2 play distinct roles in the brain, with one governing memory and the other social behavior.

A biomimetic synapse built from water droplets and biological ion channels achieves synaptic plasticity and performs machine learning tasks.

“Customisation means that sensors can be arranged in denser arrays, for example up to 16 × 16 elements on a surface, which ...

Researchers at NYU have developed a way to use light to precisely direct how microscopic particles assemble into crystals. The findings, published today (February 24) in the Cell Press journal Chem, ...

Ribosomes, the cell's protein-making factories, consume large amounts of energy as they build the proteins that keep cells alive and functioning. When cells experience stress—such as lack of nutrients ...

A stretchy, conductive type of plastic could help power the next generation of implantable biomedical devices, like longer-lasting pacemakers or glucose monitors, according to Enrique Gomez, professor ...

Amazon said a December outage affecting an AWS cost-management service was linked to an AI tool error in one region.

Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) electrothermal actuators are widely used in applications ranging from micro-optics and microfluidics to nanomaterial testing, thanks to their compact size and ...

A 125-million-year-old dinosaur just rewrote what we thought we knew about prehistoric life. Scientists in China have ...
