Yale researchers have discovered a novel way to evade the brain’s natural defenses by slipping immune system “rescuers” through its drainage system.

Researchers have uncovered a new class of “cool” blue colorants that are inexpensive, durable and could be more environmentally friendly.

Scientists have repurposed living cells into millimeter-wide "xenobots" that can move toward a target, potentially pick up a payload and heal themselves after being cut.

Researchers have engineered and tested a new therapeutic nanoparticle platform to deliver the drug paclitaxel to treat triple-negative breast cancer.

Researchers have developed a ball-milling method to break down the potentially harmful compounds found in modern electronics that prevent them from catching fire, enabling safer disposal.

Although experts say that small amounts of BPA in foods are unlikely to cause problems, some people worry that constant low-level exposures could have health effects. Now researchers have shown that, in mice, BPA activates an immune response that persists for at least three generations.

Researchers report in the journal Nature that they have for the first time demonstrated at the molecular level what happens when two antimalarial drugs were combined.

A third embryo has been generated from Fatu, one of only two remaining northern white rhinos, as part of efforts to save the sub-species from extinction.

Researchers from University of Minnesota Medical School have discovered a novel potential target for treating drug addiction through astrocytes which they refer to as “the hidden stars of the brain.”

Using state-of-the-art cryo-electron microscopy, a research team has visualized how microtubules are formed and how their formation is controlled.
