Scientists have developed a new paper-based device that can improve the diagnosis of malaria in asymptomatic people. In field tests in Ghana, the device outperformed the current gold standard methods being used in the country's hospitals.

Scientists have designed a new way to selectively convert CO2 into the useful industrial chemical formate, using a light-activated metal catalyst.

Scientists have developed a new 2D superlattice that boosts the structural stability of zinc-ion battery cathodes, allowing the battery to operate reliably for over 5,000 charge-discharge cycles.

The next generation of batteries may get a lifespan boost, thanks to a new imaging technique that can provide high-resolution images of lithium-metal batteries as they charge.

The first quantum mechanical simulations of quasicrystals have been made possible using a new technique, which also revealed why these disordered crystals are stable enough to exist in the first place.

Two key protein structures in the body are being visualized for the first time, thanks in part to the latest technology — potentially opening the door for better-designed therapeutics.

In modern immunotherapy, modified immune cells are introduced into the body to attack tumors and other targets. Researchers have now developed a method for tracking these cells in the body.

A hyperspectral imaging tool on the International Space Station has been used to identify untreated wastewater plumes being ejected into the Tijuana river estuary, demonstrating the potential of satellite instruments for water quality monitoring.

Multidisciplinary AI- and physics-driven modeling of the viral fusion process has enabled the discovery of an orally available drug inhibiting infection with multiple coronaviruses.

Researchers have uncovered a connection between phase transitions and emission properties in Ruddlesden-Popper perovskites – a type of layered material commonly used in LEDs and solar panels. The discovery could have implications for energy tech.
