The average energy project costs 40% more than expected for construction and takes almost two years longer than planned, finds a new global study. One key insight: The investment risk is highest for nuclear power plant construction and lowest for solar. The researchers analyzed data from 662 energy projects built between 1936 and 2024 in […]

Imagine drawing on something as delicate as a living cell — without damaging it. Researchers have made this groundbreaking discovery using an unexpected combination of tools: frozen ethanol, electron beams and purple-tinted microbes. By advancing a method called ice lithography, the team was able to etch incredibly small, detailed patterns directly onto fragile biological surfaces.

Photovoltaic systems are increasingly being installed not only on roofs but also on open land. This does not always meet with citizens’ approval. What is known as agrivoltaics (Agri-PV), however, is viewed more favorably, as researchers have now been able to show. In this case, the solar cells are installed in spaces used for agriculture

A team of chemists has made significant strides in the field of mechanically interlocked molecules (MIMs). Their work showcases the development of a compact catenane with tuneable mechanical chirality, offering promising applications in areas such as material science, nanotechnology, and pharmaceuticals.

We need to learn our letters before we can learn to read and our numbers before we can learn how to add and subtract. The same principles are true with AI, a team of scientists has shown through laboratory experiments and computational modeling. In their work, researchers found that when recurrent neural networks (RNNs) are

A new discovery could mean more donor hearts are available for heart transplant, giving more people a second chance at life.

An unprecedented international effort to decode how cells manage the transport of chemical substances has culminated in four groundbreaking studies This decade-long project provides the first comprehensive functional blueprint of chemical transport pathways in human cells.

Researchers have developed a novel framework named WildFusion that fuses vision, vibration and touch to enable robots to ‘sense’ and navigate complex outdoor environments much like humans do.

A research team has developed a novel haptic device designed to enhance both safety and efficiency for workers in industrial settings.

Astronomers searching for massive black holes shredding stars found one in an unusual place — 2,600 light years from the core of a galaxy. The roque black hole may be from an earlier merger with another galaxy, or have been tossed out of the core after interacting with two other black holes. This is the
