Advanced Science News takes a look at some of the prettiest pictures researchers published in March 2020.
Seeking connection through art in a pandemic
In facing a pandemic of this magnitude, coming together and seeking connection is more important than ever before.
Computer modeling reveals details of how cells fix damage to our DNA
Computer modeling decodes the chemistry carried out by complex DNA repair enzymes to remove DNA damage caused by environmental exposure.
Device could “hear” disease through structures housing cells
A device uses sound waves to detect the stiffness of an extracellular matrix, a structural network that contains cells, which researchers find can indicate the spread of disease.
Biological codes transmitted in small packages
Exploring advances in extracellular vesicles research made in the last ten-years and how its leading to better clinical applications.
Delivering climate change action with results
There has been a growing interest in delivering action with results on the ground, which is shaping how cities and urban areas are responding to climate change.
How can bioinspired nanofibers regenerate skin and aid wound healing?
Electrospinning is an emerging fabrication technology that holds great promise in advancing skin tissue engineering and in developing an array of novel therapies.
Moving messengers making their way to the limelight
Every gene found in our DNA exerts its action via the activity of its encoded protein product. However, the synthesis of the protein cannot take place directly from the gene. An intermediate messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule is first produced from the gene via a process...
Prof-Bot: The autonomous chemistry professor
Will artificial intelligence expand and enhance its teaching prowess to the point where it can replace the professor in his or her traditional role?
Insights into cataract-causing mutations
Researchers studied two important protein mutations that are known to cause cataracts, and hope that their improved understanding will help in future treatment plans.
