Scientists have created a silicon chip that can write dozens of DNA sequences simultaneously using electricity and water-based enzymes, offering a cleaner alternative to conventional DNA manufacturing. The breakthrough could eventually support portable DNA-writing devices and even massive DNA data…
Spanish small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the manufacturing sector that use robots are more productive, especially those that have fewer workers and are less innovative. However, automation alone does not translate into an increase in exports. Companies’ presence in…
A new quantum theory bridges two rival models of how impurities behave inside many-particle systems, resolving a problem that has challenged physicists for decades. The findings could reshape experiments on ultracold atoms, semiconductors, and other exotic forms of quantum matter.
The University of Barcelona participated in a study that uses an unexpected change of government in Spain—the Spanish Socialist Workers’ Party (PSOE) defeated the PP, against the odds, in the March 2004 general election—to examine whether changes in economic expectations…
For the first time, researchers have filmed the elusive goblin shark alive in the deep ocean where it naturally lives. The remarkable sightings greatly expand the shark’s known range and depth, showing that this 125-million-year-old “living fossil” still has plenty…
A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket will launch for a record-breaking 36th time early Thursday morning (July 9), and you can watch the action live. The Falcon 9 is scheduled to lift off from Florida’s Cape Canaveral Space Force Station on…
