A study involving the University of Granada (UGR) and published in the journal Cardiovascular Diabetology has shown that sclerostin plays a protective role against the development of atherosclerosis in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Our understanding of the world relies greatly on our knowledge of its constituent materials and their interactions. Recent advances in materials science technologies have ratcheted up our ability to identify chemical substances.

Cells can quickly detect and respond to minor changes in their environment, and their response is more complex than expected, reports new research.

Researchers have "hacked" DNA to develop self-assembling metallic and semiconductor 3D nanostructures, the building blocks for next-generation materials.

Researchers have successfully created a microfluidic device that can spin artificial spider silk. The device mimics the conditions in a real spider's silk gland, producing artificial silk with the same complex structure.

In a new study, researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign investigated how the type and amount of these VOCs change based on different features of tomato plants.

Researchers combine traditional mathematical approaches and cutting-edge machine learning methods for improved analysis of building structures.

A new battery cathode material could provide a more sustainable option for powering the next generation of electric cars.

New 3D-printable material could enable cheaper, less toxic manufacturing processes for next-gen OLED televisions, smartphones, light fixtures, and wearable devices

Cleft lip and palate are the most common craniofacial birth defects in humans. Yet despite decades of research, it’s still not known what causes most cases or what can be done to prevent them.
