UC Davis researchers have developed a new method that uses light to transform amino acids—the building blocks of ...

A common mineral, α-alumina, found abundantly in Earth's crust, may have played a critical role in initiating the chemical reactions necessary for life to begin. This exciting discovery, detailed in a ...

Researchers have devised a new technique -- using a sheet of carbon just one atom thick -- to visualize the structure of molecules. The technique, which was used to obtain the first direct images of ...

"This new chemistry gives us control over molecular structure in a way that's both simple and broadly useful," added Dr. Grocott. "It opens the door to designing smarter, better-targeted compounds ...

For the origin of life on Earth, ancient puddles or coastlines may have had a major ripple effect. A new study shows that a simple class of molecules called alpha hydroxy acids forms microdroplets ...

Google DeepMind, Google LLC’s artificial intelligence research unit, today detailed a new version of its AlphaFold neural network for biologists. One of the factors that influence the behavior of a ...

Researchers have developed nanoscale display cases that enables new atomic-scale views of hard-to-study chemical and biological samples. Researchers at the Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley ...

SPaDe-CSP first predicts most probable space groups and crystal densities using machine learning and then employs an efficient neural network potential for structure refinement. Prediction of crystal ...

Biomolecules are of vital importance to the medical industry and to biologists. They underpin the various medication we take, the treatments we receive in hospitals, and allow doctors and biologists ...
