New research from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis adds to growing evidence that helping brain cells ...

Researchers who manipulate lignin, a molecular fiber that allows plants to grow tall and transport water, unexpectedly discovered its synthesis has more far-reaching effects on plant development than ...

Using a custom AI system, researchers identified chemical compounds that show early promise against two conditions that lack effective treatments: hepatocellular carcinoma, the most aggressive form of ...

When chemists design drug candidates, shape matters enormously. Many active pharmaceutical ingredients contain branched carbon structures—points where the molecular chain forks in a specific direction ...

Recent research has identified a new compound that can stimulate nerve regeneration after injury, as well as protect cardiac tissue from the sort of damage seen in heart attack. Research led by UCL, ...
