Can mirror proteins cure Alzheimer's? Scientists used "right-handed" amino acids to trap amyloid-beta proteins. This breakthrough in molecular recognition offers a new way to target "undruggable" ...

After more than a decade of work, researchers now say they have uncovered the root cause of water’s unusual behavior. Their ...

ORNL has pioneered molten salt research since the 1960s, when its Molten Salt Reactor Experiment showed that molten salt ...

Crystals, bacterial colonies, flame fronts: the growth of surfaces was first described in the 1980s by the ...

Deep underground in a Canadian mine, a refrigerator nearly 1,000 times colder than outer space has just reached its target ...

The textile industry's reliance on petrochemicals is incompatible with sustainability, but bio-based alternatives and circularity can help minimise its environmental footprint and create long-term ...

Chemistry is a branch of science that involves the study of the composition, structure and properties of matter. Often known as the central science, it is a creative discipline chiefly concerned with ...

Although the potential applications of quantum computing are widespread, a new feasibility study suggests quantum computers still face major hurdles in solving quantum chemistry problems. The study, ...

Environmental chemistry is the study of chemical processes that occur in water, air, terrestrial and living environments, and the effects of human activity on them. It includes topics such as ...

OK, so something has gone wrong or is not working how you want it to – and you want to fix it! But before you begin, do restart your computer and see if the problem goes away. The first thing to do is ...
