Physical forces from gravity, muscle contraction, and more have strong impacts on how the cells in our bodies behave. For ...

Since the dawn of the computer age, researchers have wrestled with two persistent challenges: how to store ever-increasing ...

DNA nanopyramids slip through the brain's protective barrier and release cancer drugs only when they detect the acidic ...

DNA Moiré Superlattices are the focus of a study now published in Nature Nanotechnology. “Unlike conventional methods that rely on mechanical stacking and twisting of two-dimensional materials, our ...

The Martin A. Fisher School of Physics at Brandeis University has long held an international reputation for excellence in research, offering its graduate students opportunities to work with top ...

Scientists have used DNA's self-assembling properties to engineer intricate moiré superlattices at the nanometer scale—structures that twist and layer like never before. With clever molecular ...

Tiny machines built from individual molecules are moving from science fiction into working hardware, promising to reshape medicine, manufacturing, and even computing. Instead of gears and pistons, ...

Researchers study how DNA nanopores (DNPs) interact with low-curvature supported lipid bilayers over time. Using QCM-D, the study tracks diffusion, aggregation, and incorporation of DNPs, highlighting ...

Since the computer age began, storing and securing escalating data volumes has been a headache. But that problem could ...

In recent years, DNA damage has become a major focus of scientific research. Oxidative stress, caused by free radicals attacking cells and genetic material, is considered a key factor in ageing and is ...
