Scientists used molecular simulations to reveal how polymer chains adhere to alumina surfaces. Adhesion depends on both polymer chemistry and surface termination, with different responses before and ...

Yale chemists have synthesized a complex, potentially cancer-fighting molecule found in sea sponges discovered off the coast of South Korea.

Cell division is a process of remarkable precision: during each cycle, the genetic material must be evenly distributed between the two daughter cells. To achieve this, duplicated chromosomes, known as ...

Over the past few years, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) has been revolutionized, not only by the introduction of new hardware such as field-emission electron guns, aberration correctors and ...

Over a feverish 10-day period, scientists synthesized and described a new class of carbon molecules, called buckminster ...

Research reveals that many more people lose their lives because of the effects of rainfall and flooding than are routinely accounted for.
