Researchers have created sheets of gold metal measuring only a single atom layer thick. The new material, dubbed “goldene”, has unique properties that could see it become useful for catalysis, carbon dioxide conversion and much more.

In research that may lead to next-generation airplanes and spacecraft, MIT engineers used carbon nanotubes to prevent cracking in multilayered composites.

Scientists have found a way to transform metal waste into a highly efficient catalyst to make hydrogen from water, a discovery that could make hydrogen production more sustainable.

A new sensor detects the molecular fingerprints of viruses, enabling the rapid detection of infectious disease viruses.

"Bacterial vampirism" is a newly-discovered phenomenon where deadly bacteria seek out and feed on human blood.

In a new study, researchers have identified a novel mechanism potentially connected to the early stages of Alzheimer's disease. They found a fragment of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) disrupts communication between cellular compartments.

Researchers have uncovered how bacteriophages disarm antibiotic-resistant bacteria, opening doors to the possibility of new treatment methods.

Researchers have developed a new design concept for creating next-generation carbon-based quantum materials, in the form of a tiny magnetic nanographene with a unique butterfly-shape hosting highly correlated spins.

Recent findings that leaky blood vessels in the brain and heightened immune activity are key drivers of long COVID brain fog provide insights into possible targets for treatment.

A University of Michigan study has shown that traumatic experiences during childhood may get “under the skin” later in life, impairing the muscle function of people as they age.
