Complex systems in nature, like their synthetic counterparts in technology, comprise a large number of small components that assemble of their own accord through molecular interactions. Gaining a ...

We tend to view ourselves and the complex cells that build us as a distinct branch of the tree of life from the compact, ...

Chemists have developed an efficient skeletal editing method for frequently used heteroaromatic structures. The technique could serve as a means to chemically modify biologically active compounds.

A new technique incorporates many different building blocks of cellular metamaterials into one unified graph-based representation. This can be used to make a user-friendly interface that can quickly ...

Ph.D. candidate Petr Steindl creates complex structures of light using single photons. As a teenager, he wanted to study Czech poetry but decided on quantum physics. "Looking back, I am glad I ...

While the Milky Way has more stars than the brain has neurons, the manifold connections and interactions in the brain make it arguably more complex. Source: theartofsounds2001 | Pixabay The human ...
