Rapid pathogen detection is crucial for effective disease management, particularly in bloodstream infections. Current molecular diagnostics often require nucleic acid preamplification, adding time and ...

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

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 ...

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 ...

In many complex systems, predictability can be substantially state-dependent. We propose here a purely data-driven approach for estimating the local predictability at different time scales. The ...

Myosin resting states play a critical role in regulating muscle contractility and basal metabolism. The mantATP chasing technique has been widely used to assess the nucleotide turnover of resting ...

As AI tools become increasingly prevalent in workplaces, understanding the social dynamics of AI adoption is crucial. Through four experiments with over 4,400 participants, we reveal a social penalty ...

Despite the strong link between animal development and adult lifespan, how developmental programs influence longevity remains poorly understood. Here, we show that mutants of the insect neuropeptide ...

Heterotrimeric G proteins act as molecular switches that control cellular responses to external signals. Small molecules that selectively inhibit these proteins are essential for studying their ...

Biomolecular condensates play important roles in cellular organization and function, but their internal structures remain poorly understood due to limitations in imaging techniques. This is true for ...

For decades, neutrophils were viewed as short-lived, transcriptionally inactive cells, mainly engaged in antimicrobial host defense. This notion is changing as recent evidence reveals neutrophil ...
