To find out, an ESA-led project developed floating transmitters whose passage can be tracked over time, which in turn helps drive a …
Researchers have discovered two semantic memory-searching processes that are important for creativity. How can we use the exploration of knowledge to stimulate creativity? We have to use all our prior knowledge while trying to come up with a creative idea. But how does this happen in our thoughts and brains? Two semantic memory-searching mechanisms involved …

Stem cell scientists say they have created “synthetic embryos” for the first time without using sperm, eggs or fertilization, but the prospect of using such a technique to grow human organs for transplantation remains remote. The breakthrough has been hailed as a major step forward, although some experts said the result could not be considered …

In a world first, biologists have grown mouse embryo models in the laboratory without the need for fertilized eggs, embryos, or even a mouse—just using stem cells and a special incubator. This achievement, published in the journal Cell by a team led by researchers from the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel, is a very …

Newswise – Scientists from Birmingham have unveiled a new method to increase efficiency in biocatalysis in a paper published today materials horizons. Biocatalysis uses enzymes, cells, or microbes to catalyze chemical reactions and is used in settings such as the food and chemical industries to produce products that are inaccessible through chemical synthesis. It can …
