Self-reproduction is one of the most fundamental features of natural life. This study introduces a biochemistry-free method for creating self-reproducing polymeric vesicles. In this process, ...

Recent experiments have challenged the belief that glial cells, which compose at least half of brain cells, are just passive support structures. Despite this, a clear understanding of how neurons and ...

Room-temperature superconductors could revolutionize modern technology by enabling lossless power transmission, powerful magnets, advanced medical imaging (MRI), and quantum computing.

As a snorkeler in Long Island, Todd Gardner draws strange glances. He doesn’t mind. Fins tucked under his arm, he trots past prim New England saltbox houses to the water’s edge. He knows that summer ...
