Machine-learning models can speed up the discovery of new materials by making predictions and suggesting experiments. But most models today only consider a few specific types of data or variables.

Nearly every object we interact with in our lives has a mass, but where does this mass come from? Modern physics says matter ...

Materials databases lie at the heart of future data-driven discovery in energy-related fields, say researchers from Tohoku ...

For decades, ever since biologists recognized the potential environmental harms from climate change, they have worried that ...

A new book covering the history of scientific inquiry invites us to marvel at the elegance of experimentation. Some philosophers have argued that “beauty” in science stands as a proxy for truth. Many ...

Scientists at ETH Zurich have broken new ground by generating over 400 types of nerve cells from stem cells in the lab, far surpassing previous efforts that produced only a few dozen. By ...

Science has always been a field of exploration and discovery, often necessitating bold and perilous experiments. These experiments, while dangerous, have revolutionized our understanding of the world ...
