For more than 50 years, scientists have sought alternatives to silicon for building molecular electronics. The vision was elegant; the reality proved far more complex. Within a device, molecules ...

The room we are in is locked. It is windowless and lit from above by a fluorescent bulb. In the hallway outside—two stories beneath the city of London—attendants in dark suits patrol silently, giving ...

Recap: Support for the AV1 codec has grown considerably since its launch in 2018. Large and small platforms quickly adopted the format to minimize bandwidth consumption while preserving image quality.

We can't protect what we don't understand. From decoding wolf howls to making sense of millions of citizen-science sightings, we explore the tools helping researchers understand the wild in new ways.

For centuries, humans have drawn a line between themselves and other species, initially claiming that other animals couldn't feel pain. Science proved they could. Then the argument shifted: Animals ...

Before a car crash in 2008 left her paralysed from the neck down, Nancy Smith enjoyed playing the piano. Years later, Smith started making music again, thanks to an implant that recorded and analysed ...

Some Dell and HP laptop owners have been befuddled by their machines’ inability to play HEVC/H.265 content in web browsers, despite their machines’ processors having integrated decoding support.

From ASTM codes to slip resistance and electrical ratings, this guide breaks down the alphabet soup of safety footwear standards and shows how to apply them in real-world workplace decisions. Safety ...

Sepsis is a complex clinical syndrome characterized by dysregulated immune responses, systemic inflammation, and multi-organ dysfunction. It involves intricate interactions among multiple signaling ...
