Drug discovery has traditionally followed the “rule of 5,” which identifies chemical properties generally associated with good absorption of orally administered drugs, including a molecular weight…
University of Missouri researchers have discovered a new way to harness one of the body’s natural defenses: copper. While copper is essential for life and helps power important biological processes,…
What if the key to making stronger, more sustainable plastics isn’t changing their ingredients, but rearranging their molecules? Virginia Tech researchers have put that idea to the test, creating…

Copper has been knocked off the top of a stability ranking it had dominated for decades. Without altering the atoms directly bonded to the metal, a KAIST research team reversed the longstanding trend…
A common blue pigment could help turn carbon dioxide (CO₂) from an industrial waste product into a useful fuel. A joint research team led by Tohoku University’s Advanced Institute for Materials…
Polymeric materials, such as plastics and rubbers, are essential in everyday life. However, detecting where mechanical stress is concentrated inside them remains a challenge.
