Researchers from Osaka Metropolitan University have discovered the ideal genetic “recipe” to turn yeast into a tiny yet powerful eco-friendly factory that converts methanol into D-lactic acid.

A new study of garnet-type solid electrolytes for lithium batteries suggests that their expected energy densities may be overstated. Given the high production cost of these batteries, composite of quasi-solid-state may be more viable alternatives.

The analysis revealed that, taking into account gains and losses on a global scale, only around 6% of the total sequestered carbon is stored in live biomass, such as trees.

Researchers have discovered for the first time that Daphne pseudomezereum (commonly known as Onishibari) contains a substance inhibiting replication of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

Southern elephant seals may be the “canary in the coal mine” for the Southern Ocean.

Scientists at the University of Leicester have captured the first detailed “molecular movie” showing DNA being unzipped at the atomic level – revealing how cells begin the crucial process of copying their genetic material.

Researchers have developed an approach for recycling cement waste into a sustainable, low-carbon alternative that is comparable in performance to the industry standard.

Sharks near the Bahamas have now discovered that, although some sharks travel to the east coast of the US, others prefer to stick closer to home.

A recent study investigates whether early childhood memories are still accessible in the brain. Researchers explore the mechanisms behind memory retention and the lasting impact of our earliest experiences.

A study from UNSW found no significant difference in muscle gain between participants who took creatine and those who didn’t during a 12-week resistance training program.
