A new study maps how specific lactic acid bacteria can enhance both the flavour and nutritional quality of plant-based dairy alternatives. The findings may have wide-reaching perspectives for the further development of sustainable foods.

In an exclusive Genomic Press Interview, Dr. Romina Mizrahi discusses how PET imaging allows scientists to explore the molecular underpinnings of psychiatric illness. Her work on dopamine, inflammation, and cannabis use disorder paves the way for personalized interventions in schizophrenia, addiction, and suicide risk.

NIST researchers have found special atomic patterns called quasicrystals in 3D-printed aluminum alloys.

Quasicrystals increase the strength of 3D-printed aluminum, the researchers discovered, making it possible to use in lightweight, high-strength objects such as airplane parts.

Once thought impossible, quasicrystals were originally discovered at NIST, leading to a 2011 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

A web platform developed at Emory University uses a chatbot to enable any chemist — including undergraduate chemistry majors — to configure and execute complex quantum mechanical simulations through chatting.

What if humanity's search for life on other planets returns no hits? An international team of researchers, led by ETH Zurich's Institute for Particle Physics and Astrophysics studied what insights can be gained from a 'no life detected' scenario in future exoplanet surveys.
