University of Adelaide physics researchers have produced the world's most sensitive thermometer - three times more precise than the best thermometers in existence.

Biochemist from Washington and a physicist from California receive top honors.

Sperm-inspired robots controlled by magnetic fields may be useful for drug delivery, IVF, cell sorting and other applications at the microscopic level.

A grandfather clock is, on its surface, a simple yet elegant machine. Tall and stately, its job is to steadily tick away the time. But a look inside reveals a much more intricate dance of parts, from precisely-fitted gears to cable-embraced pulleys and bobbing levers.

Researchers aim to disarm a 'cereal killer.'

On June 4, join Dr. S. James Gates Jr. on a journey down the path that links one of the most challenging concepts in theoretical physics to the works of Austrian composer Arnold Schoenberg.

CSHL ramps up licensing of its short-hairpin RNA technology already used widely in cancer research and drug development.

The gap between stem cell research and regenerative medicine just became a lot narrower, thanks to a new technique that coaxes stem cells, with potential to become any tissue type, to take the first step to specialization. It is the first time this critical step has been demonstrated in a laboratory.

Two breakthrough studies track the nanoscale structural changes that degrade battery performance during cycles of charge and discharge.

Sandia National Laboratories launches push to innovate next-generation machines.
