The mechanics of the onset of cancer or neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer's disease or ALS remain a mystery.

Recent inroads made in chemistry seemingly have little to do with historical techniques that advanced the central science. The discovery of a new organic reaction or mechanism, invention of click ...

Researchers have used machine learning to create a model that simulates reactive processes in organic materials and conditions. Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University and Los Alamos National ...

To support chemical reaction discovery, a research team from WPI-ICReDD, led by Professor Masaharu Yoshioka and Assistant Professor Pinku Nath, have developed ChemOntology—a new artificial ...

Penn State researchers have uncovered a surprising twist in a foundational chemical reaction known as oxidative addition. Typically believed to involve transition metals donating electrons to organic ...

Scientists and researchers have long extolled the extraordinary potential capabilities of universal quantum computers, like simulating physical and natural processes or breaking cryptographic codes in ...

Scientists have been naming ideas, theorems, discoveries, and so on after other scientists for a very long time (Newton’s laws of motion, anyone?). Chemists are no different. They’ve been naming ...
