3D woven baskets are geometrically sophisticated, with some incredible properties that engineers can use to design materials and technology.
A clay layer one-hundredth of an inch thick preserves the fleshy details of dinosaurs buried suddenly in east-central Wyoming.
The researchers found that mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines could potentially help patients whose tumors don’t respond well to traditional immunotherapy.
Conversations around misinformation that assume everyone cares about literal truth may be missing the point.
Super short X-ray pulses help scientists study materials at the atomic level. Researchers found that certain lasing effects can make these pulses even shorter.
Unprecedented simulations show the formation of space tornadoes capable of causing strong geomagnetic storms around Earth, calling for earlier and more accurate warnings.
Your DNA contains millions of genetic variants that interact with each other in ways that affect whether diseases such as schizophrenia and heart disease develop, and with what severity.
By cranking up the difficulty on the test task, researchers found that children are capable of finding systematic solutions to complex problems far earlier than psychologists had believed.
An environmental engineer explains how his research team is developing a system containing bacteria, biochar and gel to break down pollutants in waterways.
New research on the size relationship between brains and wisdom teeth suggests that bigger brains aren’t necessarily the driving force in human evolution.
A protein historian and evolutionary biochemist found that a protein sequence present across all known life didn’t form as researchers previously thought it did.
A decade after the first discovery, scientists have used these waves to find a unique merger, a massive binary system and a crystal-clear gravitational wave signal.
Despite good hydration and nutrition, many athletes across sports still suffer from unexpected cramps. The courts and fields they’re playing on may be the missing link.
Two new studies challenge scientists’ previous theories on how the very first stars in the universe formed.
Researchers have used lab models to study how rogue waves form, but these don’t always transfer over to the natural world.
Too big to come from a dying star and too small to inhabit the center of a galaxy, these black holes are a puzzle that scientists are using LIGO to investigate.
It takes a supercomputer weeks to output the properties of one stellar binary. A new study shows AI can do it in a fraction of the time.
Imagination is a fundamental tool for everyday life. Unsurprisingly, many kids harness it during athletic play, conjuring a fun teammate, a supportive coach or a worthy opponent.
Some mushrooms are sturdier than others, but it isn’t necessarily because of their chemistry – it’s how the filaments that make them up are arranged.
