In the 2,000 years since the Roman Empire employed a naturally occurring form of cement to build a vast system of concrete aqueducts, researchers have analyzed the molecular structure of natural ...

Sure, the world is complicated, but not as complicated as you might think. It turns out that most organic molecules—the kind of chemicals that make food tasty, perfumes fragrant, and life alive—derive ...

Vaccine-induced immune responses can be enhanced by mimicking the properties of pathogens. Most vaccine delivery systems are particulate (including nanoparticles, microparticles or adjuvant-formulated ...

Classically 'semi-permeable' pores are generally considered to mediate osmotic flow at a rate dependent upon the hydraulic conductance of the pore and the difference in water potential. The shape or ...
