Researchers have developed a way to make a quantum material that can rapidly switch between an electrically conductive and insulating state. The discovery could help to create electronics up to 1,000 times faster and more efficient.

To reveal the science behind the protein–nanoparticle interaction and its implications for human health, a team of researchers conducted a series of spectroscopy-based experiments.

Researchers have uncovered a novel mechanism that dictates how cells respond to exercise, which could change the way we think about exercise and its benefits.

Serious quality defects have been found in a significant number of cancer medications from sub-Saharan Africa, according to new analysis. The researchers also pose several suggestions for improvement.

Biological drugs have improved the lives of many people with severe asthma. However, a new study from Karolinska Institutet in Sweden shows that some immune cells with high inflammatory potential are not completely eradicated after treatment.

Researchers have discovered a previously unknown cellular structure, the hemifusome, which has roles in cellular recycling.

Scientists have demonstrated the first case of low-noise, room temperature hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) made through scalable growth techniques. This material synthesis could be used as a possible qubit platform for quantum tech.

Scientists have created a new material – inspired by the natural impact-resistance of the mantis shrimp exoskeleton – that could be used to improve bullet-proof glass, blast-resistant building materials, aerospace materials and more.

Wild-growing tomatoes on the Galápagos archipelago are "de-evolving", according to new research. The plants appear to be shedding millions of years of evolution, reviving ancient chemical defense systems that are more primitive in nature.

Researchers demonstrate a pen-like tool that can quickly and non-invasively collect molecules from the skin’s surface to be screened for opioids with mass spectrometry.
