The research team created a point-of-care assay that can detect bacterial STIs, including chlamydia and gonorrhea.

Herpes simplex virus partially liquefies the tightly packed, gel-like interior of human cell nuclei to copy itself faster, a new study shows. The research centers on how the nucleus of each human cell ...

Discover how CRISPR genome editing is revolutionizing medicine. Learn the science of Cas9, current clinical trials, and the future of gene editing.

Some years ago, my linguistic research team and I started to develop a computational tool aimed at reconstructing the text of ...

A new study published in Nature has found that X's algorithm—the hidden system or "recipe" that governs which posts appear in your feed and in which order—shifts users' political opinions in a more ...

Three leaves had been missing for more than a century. Researchers found one of them when they decided on a whim to check the ...

In this simulation, 66 of the 100 needles crossed a line (you can count ’em). Using this number, we get a value of pi at 3.0303—which is not 3.14—but it's not terrible for just 100 needles. With ...

Peter Badge. Mathematics often feels like a collection of isolated islands. Each one operates with its own rules, and building bridges between them is notoriously difficult. Today, the Norwegian ...

Innate immune sensors – known as pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) – detect specific molecular components of bacterial or viral intruders. The PRRs forward the signals which results in the ...
