Modifications made to perovskite solar cells, or PSCs, render them more stable and scalable than ever before.

Chemists have developed a new, simple synthetic method for producing fluorinated piperidines — which had previously been very difficult. These compounds play a major role in the development of new ac..

A research team presents a noninvasive light-sensitive photoactivatable recombinase suitable for genetic manipulation in vivo. The highly light-sensitive property of photoactivatable Flp recombinase w..

New research suggests that our brains are like modern washing machines — evolved to have the latest sophisticated programming, but more vulnerable to breakdown and prone to develop costly disorders. ..

Plants have control mechanisms that resemble those in human senses. According to a new study, plants adjust photosynthesis to rapid light changes using a sophisticated sensing system, much in the way ..

Diseases such as multiple sclerosis are characterized by damage to the 'myelin sheath', a protective covering wrapped around nerve cells akin to insulation around an electrical wire. Researc..

New research could result in a simple and inexpensive screening for cancer of the esophagus — a disease that claims more than 400,000 lives around the world each year.

Researchers reviewed the current research into the safety of graphene and related materials looking at both human health and environmental impact.
