The Amazon rainforest responded to the most severe drought ever recorded in the basin with an unexpected defense mechanism.

When doctors and scientists want to see inside a body, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a powerful tool. MRI can ...

Small molecules have critical roles at all levels of biological complexity and yet remain orphans of the central dogma. Chemical biologists, working with small molecules, expand our understanding of ...

The shape of life’s building blocks is the result of biology, chemistry, and quantum physics colliding.

Researchers have developed a light-driven method for creating tiny, high-energy “housane” molecules that are valuable for ...

A molecule is a group of atoms bonded together. Molecules make up nearly everything around you – your skin, your chair, even your food. They vary in size, but are extremely small. You can’t see an ...

Physicists are increasingly using ultracold molecules to study quantum states of matter. Many researchers contend that molecules have advantages over other alternatives, such as trapped ions, atoms or ...
