The capacity of all living systems to develop, organize and sustain themselves is based upon a cyclical process in which genes and metabolism interact in parallel. While genes encode the components of metabolism, metabolism provides the energy and building blocks to maintain and process genetic information. The capacity of all living systems to develop, organize and…
RIKEN chemists have developed a molecule that enhances the performance of organic electronic devices and is also more stable than previous alternatives, raising the chances that it could be used in industrial manufacturing processes. The study is published in Advanced Materials. RIKEN chemists have developed a molecule that enhances the performance of organic electronic devices and…

The relentless march of a highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAIV) strain, known as H5N1, to become an unprecedented panzootic continues unchecked. The leap of H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b from Eurasia and Africa to North America in 2021 and its further … The relentless march of a highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAIV) strain, known as H5N1,…

Chirality is a phenomenon with widespread relevance in fundamental physics, material science, chemistry, optics, and spectroscopy. In this work, we show that a free electron can be converted by the field cycles of laser light into a right-handed or left-… Chirality is a phenomenon with widespread relevance in fundamental physics, material science, chemistry, optics, and spectroscopy….
