The ability to map both the magnitude and orientation of forces on a cell provides a powerful tool for investigating not just blood clotting but a range of biomechanical processes, from immune cell activation and embryo development to the replication and spread of cancer cells.
In the first study to predict whether different populations of the same plant species can adapt to climate change, scientists find that central European ones die first.
Researchers have chemically imprinted polymer particles with DNA strands — a technique that could lead to new materials for applications ranging from biomedicine to the promising field of ‘soft robotics.’
Natural killer cells are among the most abundant immune cells in the uterus during the first trimester of pregnancy, but their numbers decline substantially after the placenta forms. A new study shows that this cell population helps to optimize maternal nourishment of the fetus at early stages of development. The […]
North Korea has been blamed for WannaCry, the cyber attack that forced hospitals, banks and other companies into meltdown in May. White House homeland security adviser Tom Bossert said on Tuesday that North Korea has acted “badly” and “unchecked” for more than a decade. Mr Bossert called WannaCry a “reckless” […]
Researchers show how nuclear magnetic resonance probes can be optimized for studying the properties of nanomaterials and strange states of matter.
Despite being almost 100 years old, the 1921 Alfa Romeo G1 is capable of an impressive 86mph. It was designed to compete with luxury models from the US and UK but due to high fuel costs and road taxes, just 50 production models and two prototypes were built. This model, […]
