Early diagnosis is crucial in disease prevention and treatment. Many diseases can be identified not just through physical signs and symptoms but also through changes at the cellular and molecular levels.

An international team of paleontologists and Earth scientists has identified fossilized remains as a two-clawed therizinosaur. The fossils were unearthed more than a decade ago in Mongolia. Their paper is published in the journal iScience.

Next-generation imaging technology is rapidly expanding beyond smartphones into intelligent devices, robotics, extended reality (XR) devices, health care, CCTV, and various other industries. At the core of these technological advances are highly efficient

Scientists don't call it the "Great Dying" for nothing. About 252 million years ago, upward of 80% of all marine species vanished during the end-Permian mass extinction—the most extreme event of its kind in Earth's history.

A new way to measure male fertility has been discovered by researchers at the University of Waterloo, opening the door to the development of simple, inexpensive tests for clinical and at-home use.

Researchers from the J. Craig Venter Institute (JCVI), the Friedrich-Loeffler-Institut (FLI), and the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) have developed a reverse genetics system for African swine fever virus (ASFV). This new system will aid

MXene is a lightweight two-dimensional (2D) material capable of protecting everything—including spacecraft, mechanical components, and maybe even people—from harmful radiation. Because traditional synthesis requires multi-step processes that can take up t

The last time a new class of antibiotics reached the market was nearly three decades ago—but that could soon change, thanks to a discovery by researchers at McMaster University.

Researchers from the Department of Physics have managed to experimentally develop a new magnetic state: a magneto-ionic vortex or "vortion." The research, published in Nature Communications, allows for an unprecedented level of control of magnet

The Field Museum in Chicago and the Foundation for Scientific Advancement reported that sediment-encased maturation of pine resin produces a hardened, translucent substance that closely mimics natural copal and amber in appearance, texture, and chemical s

Newly achieved precise control over light emitted from incredibly tiny sources, a few nanometers in size, embedded in two-dimensional (2D) materials could lead to remarkably high-resolution monitors and advances in ultra-fast quantum computing, according

Sometimes, the most significant scientific discoveries happen by accident. Scientists have long known that whole-genome duplication (WGD)—the process by which organisms copy all their genetic material—plays an important role in evolution. But understandin
