Scientists have identified the mistake-rate of DNA editing tools, based on CRISPR and known as adenine base editors. Assessing the genome-wide target specificity of these innovative techniques is esse..

Researchers have developed a technique that uses bacteria to produce 'biocement' in coal ash ponds, making the coal ash easier to store and limiting the risk of coal ash spills into surface ..

Influenza viruses from bats use an entirely different portal to enter the cell than all previously known types of influenza.

Scientists have found a way to build the 'opposite' of a laser — a device that absorbs a specific light wave perfectly. This can be done even in complicated systems, in which waves are scat..

A new quantum sensor has proven it can outperform existing technologies and promises significant advancements in long-range 3D imaging and monitoring the success of cancer treatments.

Physicists now know why quarks, the building blocks of the universe, move more slowly inside atomic nuclei, solving a 35-year-old-mystery.

People exposed to trauma are less able to suppress unwanted emotional memories due to neural and behavioral disruptions in their brain that may contribute to the development of post-traumatic stress d..

Optical clocks have evaluated the latest 'one second' tick of the International Atomic Time (TAI) and provided these data for adjusting the tick rate of TAI.

Resistance to antimalarial drugs is thought to result mainly from changes in the parasite's genome. However, P. falciparum can also develop resistance to some antimalarial compounds by epigenetic..

Young adults at risk of developing problems with addiction show key differences in an important region of the brain, according to a new study.
