By simulating the life cycle of a minimal bacterial cell, from DNA replication to protein translation to metabolism and cell division, scientists have opened a new frontier of computer vision into the ...

If a tree falls in the forest, it can create an opening for more incoming light, and that makes a significant impact on the surrounding environment, according to new research. An international science ...

It’s rare that an interesting story starts with sitting in a Biology 1B class, but on some occasions, I suppose it happens. While I liked to complain about the lab assignments and midterms, Biology 1B ...

Computational modeling and simulation of nanomaterials strongly complement physical experiments. They enable the prediction of characteristics and processes under conditions difficult to replicate or ...

Creating a virtual brain may sound like a science-fiction nightmare, but for neuroscientists in Japan and at Seattle’s Allen Institute, it’s a big step toward a long-held dream. They say their ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. The images show the dark matter halo of the largest galaxy cluster formed in the simulation at different magnifications. We see ...

REDSTONE ARSENAL, Ala. — When could a computer simulation substitute for a wind tunnel or flight test? It is the hot topic today in research and development circles. And there are many spirited ...
