Scripps Research scientists have discovered how some tumors endure DNA damage, revealing a potential new way to target them. The DNA inside our cells is constantly exposed to damage, and one of the most severe forms occurs when both strands of the double helix are cut at the same time. Under normal conditions, cells use […]

A new alloy could turn tomorrow’s vehicle scrap into America’s next manufacturing advantage. A large influx of aluminum auto body scrap is expected to move through recycling systems over the next ten years. Much of this material contains too many impurities to be reused safely in high-performance automotive components, which significantly reduces its value. Researchers […]

A decade-long investigation into puzzling neutrino behavior has now ruled out one of the most widely discussed explanations: the sterile neutrino. After a decade of gathering and studying data, scientists, including researchers from Rutgers, have overturned a long-standing theory about a mysterious type of particle. The results, reported in Nature, were produced by the MicroBooNE […]

A new article examines the history of computing to help outline the direction of quantum research. It reports that quantum technology is advancing quickly, and that the major obstacles now involve expanding the systems to larger scales. Quantum technology is quickly moving beyond experimental setups and beginning to take shape in practical settings, and a […]

Researchers have developed a universal, base-edited CAR T-cell treatment that delivers high remission rates for patients with resistant T-cell leukemia. Early outcomes—and remarkable recoveries—suggest a powerful new path forward against this aggressive cancer. Breakthrough gene-edited treatment for T-cell leukemia Scientists at UCL (University College London) and Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) have developed a new […]
