Using ALMA, scientists have discovered one of the largest molecules ever seen in space in the space-birthing Cat's Paw nebula. The discovery hints at how chemical complexity emerges as stars form.

The new diagram-based language, having been posted online, has already attracted great attention and interest from software developers.

Chemists found a way to identify a complex sugar molecule in the cell walls of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the world's deadliest pathogen. This labeling could lead to simpler, faster TB tests.

New research shows how a simple molecule called ortho-benzene helps form larger, more complex organic molecules at the core of frigid gas clouds in deep space.

Scientists are looking at ways to tackle Alzheimer's and dementia from all kinds of angles, and a new study has identified the molecule hevin (or SPARCL-1) as a potential way of preventing ...

Astronomers have discovered a complex molecule in a star-forming region known as the Cat’s Paw Nebula. The molecule in question is 2-methoxyethanol which on Earth is a pretty toxic chemical ...

Astronomers detected the largest molecule ever found in a planet forming disc, which could lead to organic molecules.

A team of researchers led by Professor Sebastian Deindl at Uppsala University has developed a pioneering method that vastly improves the ability to observe and analyse complex biological processes ...

If we want to understand complex constructions, such as ourselves, assembly theory says we must account for the entire history of how such entities came to be.

A man was killed Sunday morning in a shooting at a Fayetteville apartment complex. Around 10:30 a.m., officers with the Fayetteville Police Department responded to an apartment complex in the 600 ...

Resurrection biology — attempting to bring strings of molecules and more complex organisms back to life — is gaining traction in labs around the world. The work is a far cry from the ...
