As climate change outpaces the ability of ecosystems to adapt, scientists are turning to conservation genomics to guide ...

Phage display is a key method for directed evolution and protein engineering. By connecting phenotype and genotype via bacteriophage display systems, it is possible to select peptides, proteins, and ...

Fresh off the heels of the frenzy that has taken over Chanel retailers as Matthieu Blazy’s first collection arrives in stores, the Spring 2025 campaign hit social media this morning. It caused a ...

Researchers have created a method called optovolution that uses light to guide the evolution of proteins with dynamic behaviors. By engineering yeast cells so their survival depended on proteins ...

Scientists used light to evolve proteins that can switch, sense, and even “compute” inside living cells. Evolution is one of biology’s most powerful design tools. It works by producing many variations ...

Scientists have developed a novel protein evolution approach dubbed optovolution that uses light to guide the evolution of proteins with dynamic, multi-state, and computational functions based on ...

Evolution is biology's powerful method of engineering. It works by generating many variants of DNA, RNA, and proteins inside cells and letting nature "select" the organism that performs best. Early ...

EPFL researchers have developed a light-based method that can produce proteins that switch states, respond to signals, and even compute, using light and the cell cycle. Evolution is biology's powerful ...

In nature, enzymes are the catalysts that make much of biology work. They jumpstart chemical reactions that either wouldn’t happen, or would happen super slowly. They break down food, build other ...

Irvine, Calif., Feb. 9, 2026 — From vaccines and diagnostics to emerging gene-based therapies, RNA molecules are now central to modern medicine. But as their use continues to grow, so does a ...

Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis have a unique resource in the form of the Center for Biomolecular Condensates at the McKelvey School of Engineering, which draws scientists from ...

Jeremy has more than 2300 published articles on Collider to his name, and has been writing for the site since February 2022. He's an omnivore when it comes to his movie-watching diet, so will gladly ...
