Chemical analyses find hidden elements from renaissance astronomer Tycho Brahe"s alchemy laboratory
In the Middle Ages, alchemists were notoriously secretive and didn't share their knowledge with others. Danish Tycho Brahe was no exception. Consequently, we don't know precisely what he did in the alchemical laboratory located beneath his combined r.....»»
New model explains precise timing of viral cell bursting
New research from Rice University scientists is shedding light on how viruses ensure their survival by precisely timing the release of new viruses. The discovery offers a new theoretical framework for understanding these dynamic biological phenomena......»»
Interdisciplinary approach provides new insights into molecular mechanisms of cholera infection
Cholera infections caused by Vibrio cholerae bacteria can be life-threatening and the trigger is the cholera toxin produced by the bacteria. It binds to the surface of intestinal cells—more precisely, to certain "sugar lipids" (GM1 gangliosides, GM.....»»
Researchers develop library for RNA-based therapeutic approaches with polymer nanoparticles
RNA therapy with polymer nanoparticles is considered a promising approach for the treatment of various illnesses. It involves the use of polymers as "nanocarriers" to transport RNA drugs precisely to the correct target cells. Manufacturing such polym.....»»
Apple releases new midnight color for HomePod mini, replacing space gray
In a bizarre mid-July announcement, Apple has today updated the HomePod mini. Not with any new features or upgrades, however, but with a new (or more precisely, different) choice of color. You can now order the HomePod mini in a new Midnight color.....»»
New method for simultaneous high-resolution measurement of chiral molecules
Researchers have developed a new method for precisely analyzing molecules' chirality. This method, known as cavity-enhanced chiral eigenmode (CECEM) spectroscopy, offers several advantages over existing techniques, including the ability to simultaneo.....»»
Belle II experiment reports the first direct measurement of tau-to-light-lepton ratio
