The new Metals Lab involves a multiscale, three-dimensional correlative imaging workflow to better understand and develop metallic alloys for the automotive, aerospace, nuclear, and oil & gas industries.

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.

Less than a year after patenting a process that could improve stripping greenhouse gasses from industrial emissions, a University of Alabama engineering professor was recently granted another patent that uses a different solvent to accomplish the same goal.

Not when it comes to control of gene expression during dropsophila development.

It is a summer afternoon and dark clouds are rolling in. You notice that outside your laboratory windows the lightning strikes are getting closer. Your first thought is to back up your data. Your second thought is to shut down your $50,000 spectrometer so electrical surges from lightning strikes don’t kill the sensitive electronics.

With news reports of toxic cadmium-tainted rice in China, a new study describes a protein that transports metals in Arabidopsis plants and holds promise for developing iron-rich but cadmium-free crops.

Researchers at the Georgia Tech Research Institute are developing a micro gas chromatograph for early detection of diseases in crops. 

Harvard Stem Cell Institute, initially just an idea, quickly became a generator of scientific discoveries.

Equipment unique to the University of Calgary gives researchers insight into industry and academic challenges.
