Molecular-scale circuits that link together tiny transistors, wires, and switches to carry out basic computing operations were named this year’s top scientific achievement by the journal Science and ...

When high-voltage electricity breaks out in open air, it rips through the atmosphere, forming chaotic, branching fingers of electric plasma. These electrical arcs are difficult to control. They branch ...

A research team has developed a groundbreaking technology poised to revolutionize next-generation displays and electronic devices. A research team led by Professor Yong-Young Noh and Dr. Youjin Reo ...

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden have identified a brain circuit that can drive repetitive and compulsive behaviors in mice, even when natural rewards such as food or social contact are ...

Weizmann Institute of Science researchers have observed the birth of a protein made by a single DNA molecule, an event never previously seen outside a cell. The insights from the observation enabled ...

How your brain gets wired up matters. Consider the neurons involved in your sense of smell. Hook them up wrong, and suddenly turpentine might smell like a lovely chianti. At best, following your nose ...
