The silicon carbide transistor is designed to avoid low controllability and current leakage, which typically become problems at high temperatures.

MIT engineers have developed injectable mini livers designed to help support people whose failing livers can no longer perform essential jobs. Instead of replacing the damaged organ, the approach injects liver cells toge...

Scientists have devised a new way to switch magnetic computer memory while using far less energy than today's leading technologies. By mathematically optimizing the pulses used to flip digital bits, the method could ...

A large study involving more than 270,000 people has linked higher blood levels of the amino acid tyrosine to a shorter lifespan in men. Using both observational data and genetic analysis, researchers found that elevated...

Researchers have mapped breast tumors in striking detail and uncovered hidden pockets of dormant cancer cells that may help explain why cancer can return after treatment. Unlike rapidly dividing cells, these quiet cells ...

The tomb of a pyramid-age official has been found at Saqqara in Egypt.

It depends. Though water consumption by data centers pales in comparison to that of some other industries, it's a problem in water-stressed regions. Water-saving cooling technologies could help.

A cat named Emerald and a dog named Ocean were memorialized in a Roman mosaic over 1,800 years ago.

Older adults at risk of dementia improved their memory and thinking after following lifestyle programs combining exercise, healthy eating, cognitive training, and social engagement. Those who received regular coaching an...

A new silicon carbide transistor is designed to avoid low controllability and current leakage, which typically become problematic at high temperatures.

A dazzling new James Webb Space Telescope image reveals about 70 newborn stars buried inside a strangely shaped cloud in the Carina Nebula.

How small can a transistor actually get? And is smaller even still the goal?

Indonesias dangerous peat fires are surging early in the 2026 fire season as a strengthening El Niño and severe drought dry out wetlands that can burn underground for months. These slow smoldering fires are especially d...

Researchers may have found a new way to weaken glioblastomas defenses against treatment. Blocking a protein called SET prevented tumors from forming in preclinical models, while targeting related proteins made cancer cel...
