Though it might seem like science fiction, scientists are working to build nanoscale molecular machines that can be designed ...

Biomanufacturing depends on microbial platforms. For efficiency’s sake, these single-celled production engines must maximize output while minimizing inputs, including energy inputs, which ultimately ...

The discovery of a defensive mechanism could help stop cancer before it spreads. Cancer cells rapidly increase their energy output when physically squeezed, according to a study in Nature ...

DNA computers can use biological material to perform mathematical functions and store information, but their power sources have been fragile. Researchers now say they’ve developed a reliable source: ...

High-density lipoproteins (HDL), also known as "good cholesterol," remove excess cholesterol from the body's tissues and ...

Scientists from the Trinity Biomedical Sciences Institute (TBSI) have discovered how nanoplastics—even smaller than microplastics—disrupt energy metabolism in brain cells. Their findings may have ...
