March 19, 2013 — Researchers have performed record simulations using all 1,572,864 cores of Sequoia, the largest supercomputer in the world. Sequoia, based on IBM BlueGene/Q architecture, is the first machine to ... > full story -
Molecule's Structure Reveals New Therapeutic Opportunities for Rare Diabetes
March 13, 2013 — Researchers have determined the 3-D structure of a protein called HNF-4±. People with mature onset diabetes of the young (MODY1) have inherited mutations in the HNF-4± protein. This ... > full story -
Long Predicted Atomic Collapse State Observed in Graphene
March 7, 2013 — Seventy years ago theorists predicted superlarge nuclei would exhibit a quantum-mechanical phenomenon known as "atomic collapse." Recently materials scientists calculated that highly-charged ... > full story -
Pushing the Boundaries: Study Provides Key Insight Into How Cells Fuse
March 7, 2013 — Researchers have established a high-efficiency cell-cell fusion system, providing a new model to study how fusion works. The scientists showed that fusion between two cells is not equal and mutual as ... > full story -
Probing Extreme Matter Through Observations of Neutron Stars
March 6, 2013 — Neutron stars, the ultra-dense cores left behind after massive stars collapse, contain the densest matter known in the Universe outside of a black hole. New results have provided one of the most ... > full story -
Viruses: More Survival Tricks Than Previously Thought
March 5, 2013 — Among eukaryotes with modified nuclear genetic codes, viruses are unknown. Until now it had been believed that the modifications to the genetic code effectively prevented new viral infections. ... > full story -
