Let’s start with a quick biology refresher: Mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cell. They convert the food we eat into adenosine triphosphate, or ATP, which is the primary form of cellular energy.

A novel method to manipulate the inner structure of cells connects several scientific fields and could represent a ...

Light can hit a lead halide perovskite crystal that is anything but pristine and still end up as useful electric current.

Inside our bones, a busy and vital process is happening every single second. Deep in the bone marrow, the body is constantly making millions of new blood cells and immune cells that keep us alive and ...

In a new study 'Flexoelectric domain walls enable charge separation and transport in cubic perovskites' published in Nature Communications, physicists at the Institute of Science and Technology ...

Despite being riddled with impurities and defects, solution-processed lead-halide perovskites are surprisingly efficient at ...

Age-related changes in protein tagging and degradation may help explain how the brain declines over time and why diet can still influence these processes.

Brain cells are constantly swallowing material from the fluid that surrounds them - signaling molecules, nutrients, even pieces of their own surfaces - in a process known as endocytosis that is ...

Scientists have discovered that DNA behaves in a surprising way when squeezed through tiny nanopores, overturning a long-held ...

This paper explores the use of novel lightweight concrete as an alternative material, focusing on Cellular Lightweight Foam Concrete (CLFC), renowned for its strength, low weight, thermal insulation, ...

Here's some science trivia for you: unlike the inner retina in most animals (including us), birds' inner retinas function without oxygen. And now, researchers led by a team from Aarhus University in ...
