The seemingly unpredictable, and thereby uncontrollable, dynamics of living organisms have perplexed and fascinated ...

Theoretical chemists have developed a theory that can predict the threshold at which quantum dynamics switches from 'orderly' to 'random,' as shown through research using large-scale computations on ...

Using patient data from several banks of genomics data, researchers at UC San Diego were able to make similar predictions of aging using either mutations or epigenetic modifications. Their results ...

In the continuing quest to find the cause of aging and a pathway to slow or even reverse it, a recent study out of the UC San Diego School of Medicine in La Jolla has linked two leading theories. In ...

During his Ph.D. at UMass, Nikhil Malvankar was laser-focused on quantum mechanics and the movement of electrons in superconductors. Now a professor at Yale, the native of Mumbai, India, has pivoted ...

When Queen Elizabeth II died, the media were full of photos and film clips covering the stages of her life—as a child, as a teenager, as the young Queen, as an old lady. We saw her children grow up, ...
