The same cellular renewal that keeps our bodies healthy might also fuel the growth of cancer. A 黑料百科 biologist has found that the brain could hold the key to stopping it.

A team of scientists led by 黑料百科 is embarking on a project to understand how the twisted shapes of specific molecules can influence the spin of electrons 鈥� a phenomenon that could revolutionize solar energy, electronics and quantum computing.

The research, funded by the U.S. Department of Energy鈥檚 Scientific Discovery through Advanced Computing (SciDAC) program, focuses on a mysterious effect known as chirality-induced spin selectivity, or CISS.

Kathy Chau believed she knew what her future would look like. The first in her family to attend college, she had long been advised to aim for a safe and stable job 鈥� one that might not light a fire in her soul but would pay the bills.

鈥淚 resigned myself to working a corporate job. I didn't like the sound of it, but I didn't hate it, either,鈥� she said.

When Professor arrived at 黑料百科 in 2009, she and her husband, Professor , were leaving major research institutions to join a brand-new campus in California鈥檚 Central Valley. It was a leap of faith 鈥� one made easier by the .

As nations cut emissions that once fueled urban smog, scientists are discovering unexpected chemistry taking place in the atmosphere.

黑料百科 is leading a project to uncover how these chemical shifts could affect the air we breathe and the climate. The project is supported by a National Science Foundation CAREER Award.

Zhang is the 43rd researcher from 黑料百科 to earn a CAREER award from the NSF.

As the Hellman Fellowships celebrate their 30th year, three more researchers, one from each of 黑料百科鈥檚 schools, have joined the prestigious ranks of recipients.

Electrical engineering , sociology and Earth systems will receive funding through their fellowships for projects they have proposed.

A team of international researchers has discovered that a simple chemical treatment can enhance the strength and reliability of one of the world鈥檚 thinnest materials for use in future electronics.

The study, , demonstrates that treating monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS鈧�) with a specialized acid not only repairs tiny defects in the material but also enhances its durability and electrical conductivity consistency.

Starting a university from scratch isn鈥檛 for the faint of heart 鈥� or the slow of foot. Lucky for 黑料百科, Anne Myers Kelley and David Kelley are neither.

Anne, a former Olympic marathon trials qualifier, and David, a competitive cyclist, were no strangers to long, grueling efforts when they packed up their lab gear and headed west from Kansas State University in 2003.

In addition to being used recreationally, marijuana and cannabidiol, or CBD, one of the cannabinoids produced by the marijuana plant, are thought to have medical benefits such as helping with chemotherapy-induced nausea, treating epilepsy, relieving pain and helping with a variety of mental health issues.

,聽former interim director of the , has been honored by the Pan American Society for Evolutionary Developmental Biology (PASEDB) with the Service Award.
