Last November, the UK government announced a bold plan to phase out animal testing in some areas of research. Animal tests for skin irritation are scheduled for elimination this year, and some studies ...

Researchers at the University of Tuebingen, working with an international team, have developed an artificial intelligence that designs entirely new, sometimes unusual, experiments in quantum physics ...

Colorado State University will host its annual Little Shop of Physics Open House on March 1. The event features over 300 hands-on science experiments for all ages at the Lory Student Center. More than ...

Gabriel Gomes believes the future of chemistry is as much about flasks and fume hoods as it is about code. A chemical engineer at Carnegie Mellon University, Gomes works at the intersection of ...

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- Everyone knows it's cold it is outside. The entire Philadelphia region has remained below freezing for the seventh day in a row, with little relief in sight. But we are tapping ...

A group of volunteers spent days locked in a small hotel room with people actively infected with flu. They played games, shared objects and exercised together in conditions designed to help the virus ...

A competition calling for research projects involving so-called AI scientists shows just how fast this technology is moving. A number of startups and university teams that are building “AI scientists” ...

Mendel’s monastery garden experiments went largely unnoticed during his life, but their implications would ripple through science decades later. Gregor Mendel, Austrian botanist and founder of ...

In 1927, Albert Einstein and Neils Bohr debated the nature of what’s known as complementarity—the idea that a photon’s dual wave-like and particle natures can’t be measured at the same time. Now, two ...

WASHINGTON — The defense bill that President Donald Trump signed into law puts an end to many military experiments on cats and dogs and declares a ceasefire to shooting animals in “trauma” exercises.

A physics experiment published this year that claimed to measure a single photon in two places at once – and, in the process, discredit the idea of a multiverse – drew pushback from many sceptical ...
