Researchers have revealed the molecular architecture of fungal cell walls and the structural responses to stresses, aiding the development of antifungal drugs targeting cell wall components.

Researchers have discovered a new type of cell in the heart that may help regulate heart rate and could be important in understanding certain types of congenital heart defects and other diseases that involve the heart.

The melting of the Antarctic Ice Sheet may have already passed a point of no return, a new study has found, and scientists say it could contribute to sea level rise over coming centuries and possibly millennia.

Now that the Human Genome Project has officially wrapped, an international team of researchers will map the entire collection of proteins in the human body.

Scientists recently gained insights into how vitamin D functions to reduce inflammation caused by immune cells that might be relevant to the responses during severe COVID-19.

Scientists have created the first ever prototype of a soft, biodegradable and soluble Velcro inspired by the micro-hook structure of leaves on the “catchweed” plant.

Researchers have developed computational tools to accurately assess the footprint of certain organic atmospheric pollutants. Their simulation could help government agencies keep a closer check on human-made sources of pollutants.

Researchers have developed and tested a process to identify potential false-positive COVID-19 results, this could help other laboratories prevent unnecessary quarantining and repeated testing of uninfected people.

P. aeruginosa causes the most common secondary infection in hospital patients and it is resistant to antibiotics. Researchers have discovered how the structure of the toxin becomes more ordered when interacting with one of the main components of the cytoskeleton.

Researchers have improved the selectivity of a process that turns carbon dioxide into fuel feedstock by developing a new approach to modify the surface of the copper catalysts used to assist the reaction.
