A hybrid microscope allows scientists to simultaneously image the full 3D orientation and position of an ensemble of molecules, such as labeled proteins inside cells. The microscope combines polarized ...

Researchers have pioneered a new catalytic transformation that converts epoxides into fluorinated oxetanes, a coveted but difficult-to-make class of drug molecules that escaped synthetic preparation ...

Organolithium compounds, molecules containing a carbon–lithium bond, are excellent precursors for building new carbon–carbon ...

Researchers at the University of Tsukuba have reported on the structure and light energy transfer efficiency of a protein ...

Our interdisciplinary school is leading scientific exploration and engineering expertise in sustainability solutions, biomedical innovation and advanced materials. We address crucial issues like ...

Collagen, the body’s most abundant protein, has long been viewed as a predictable structural component of tissues. However, a new study led by Rice University’s Jeffrey Hartgerink and Tracy Yu, in ...

Product safety, measuring the health effects of exposure to chemicals and chemical contaminants in food.

Sustainability and climate change should be included in the way chemistry is taught - so we brought key stakeholders to discuss what the best way to do that looks like. Dr Siân Fussell, Dr Layla ...

Chemical engineers are problem solvers - they bring new medicines to market, develop alternative fuels, keep food manufacturing safe, and create new manufacturing materials. They move small-scale ...

Melanoma brain metastasis is linked to dismal prognosis and low overall survival and is detected in up to 80% of patients at autopsy. Circulating tumor cells (CTC) are the smallest functional units of ...

An artificial intelligence model has created a new protein that researchers say would have taken 500 million years to evolve in nature — if nature were capable of producing such a thing.
