The team used the help of a tiny, 3D-printed harness to keep the spiders in place while conducting their experiments.

Ultrafast electron diffraction experiments open a new window on the microscopic world.

The technique involves making high-resolution digital photos of slices of plant tissues and using commercial software to create a 3-dimensional perspective

A forthcoming neutrino detector will require temperatures approaching absolute zero.

The custom technologies arm of Molecular Devices, a leader in bioanalytical systems for drug discovery, life science research, and bioassay development, has partnered with the Discovery Technologies team at the Roche Innovation Center Basel of Pharma Research and Early Development (pRED) to develop a high-throughput detection system for drug discovery screens employing Roche’s proprietary Ruthenium-based nanosecond time resolved fluorescence (Nano-TRF®) assays. The pRED screening teams in Basel and Shanghai are now installing the custom-developed Nano-TRF® cartridge in their existing Molecular Devices SpectraMax® Paradigm® multimode microplate readers and will receive on-demand delivery of new cartridges and continuing global technical support.

Niche Diagnostics Center of Excellence develops and manufactures products used worldwide in healthcare and other markets.

These two infrared images of C/2013 (Comet Siding Spring) were taken by the Compact Reconnaissance Imaging Spectrometer for Mars (CRISM) aboard NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) on Oct. 19, 2014. Comet Siding Spring — an Oort Cloud comet that may contain material from the formation of the solar system some 4.6 billion years ago — was making its first voyage through the inner solar system. CRISM and many other instruments and spacecraft combined to provide an unprecedented data set for an Oort Cloud comet.

Findings strengthen link between specific brain region and normal memory decline.

The joint effort will accelerate the implementation of clinical trials and delivery of stem cell therapies.

Method expands options for making pure batches of ‘one-handed’ molecules.

The National Synchrotron Light Source II detects its first photons, beginning a new phase of the facility's operations. Scientific experiments at NSLS-II are expected to begin before the end of the year.

South Dakota State University food science professor Padmanaban Krishnan received a four-year grant geared toward getting corn co-products to the food market.
