Building the complex 3D molecules needed for new medicines has always been a bit like assembling a puzzle with pieces that ...

University of California, Berkeley, chemists have created a new type of material from millions of identical, interlocking molecules, that for the first time allows the synthesis of extensive 2D or 3D ...

Researchers around the world are working to develop efficient materials to convert CO 2 into usable chemical substances—work that is particularly pressing in view of global warming. A team from the ...

Florida State University chemists have synthesized new molecules derived from bacteria found in a Pacific Ocean sea sponge, a breakthrough for the future of drug development, particularly for rare ...

Researchers at Linköping University have used computer simulations to show that stable aromatic molecules can become reactive after absorbing light. The results, published in the Journal of Organic ...

A molecule is a group of atoms bonded together. Molecules make up nearly everything around you – your skin, your chair, even your food. They vary in size, but are extremely small. You can’t see an ...
