Theory, computation, and simulation are foundational to modern energy research. Theoretical understanding reveals why materials and systems behave as they do, predicting performance before experiments ...

The new model developed by Flatiron Institute researchers proposes that biological neurons have more control over their surroundings than previously thought, something that could be replicated in the ...

Researchers have discovered a new way to drive chemical reactions that could generate a wide variety of azetidines -- four-membered nitrogen heterocycles that have desirable pharmaceutical properties.

Genetic diseases that result from truncated proteins can be targeted by so-called nonsense suppression therapies—drugs that prevent protein translation from terminating prematurely. A new ...

People's decisions are known to be influenced by past experiences, including the outcomes of earlier choices. For over a century, psychologists have been trying to shed light on the processes ...

Nearly 50 years ago, neuroscientists discovered cells within the brain's hippocampus that store memories of specific locations. These cells also play an important role in storing memories of events, ...

Over the past decades, computer scientists have developed numerous artificial intelligence (AI) systems that can process human speech in different languages. The extent to which these models replicate ...
