Inspired by biological systems, materials scientists have long sought to harness self-assembly to build nanomaterials. The challenge: the process seemed random and notoriously difficult to predict.

The immune system’s first encounter with a virus or vaccine establishes a “starting template” that shapes its response to new ...

Researchers have created tiny, microorganism-inspired particles that can change their shape and self-propel, much like living ...

Dogs began diversifying thousands of years earlier than previously believed, with clear differences in size and shape ...

Harvey Fineberg describes the present moment for science as both promising and unsettling. Yet, the paradox at the heart of ...
