A new graphene filter grabs bacteria from the air and kills them with a bit of heat from electricity. The advance could help fight drug resistance.

A common protein in nano-bio labs is prone to pushing gold nanorods into right-handed chiral assemblies—while producing chiral plasmonic signals to match.

Is a dose of chemotherapy too much or too little? Is it going to the tumor or a vital organ? A new invention promises better monitoring.

A new way to direct electrons and their quantum waves with a "traffic light" could pave the way for quantum computers, applications in medicine, and more.

Solar cells that can be used on a curved surface like the body of a car may be one step closer to reality thanks to a new discovery about conductivity.

"With the graphene, the mosquitoes weren't even landing on the skin patch—they just didn't seem to care."

A new catalytic reactor can take carbon dioxide, one of the most common greenhouse gases, and turn it into a pure form of liquid fuel.

A new test detects tuberculosis in 10 to 20 minutes with 95% to 99% accuracy and only costs a dime, a lot less money than today's most accurate test.

Angiopoeitin-1, a type of protein, may help close the gaps in the blood vessels that cancer-fighting nanoparticles can cause.

Using a regular thermometer on a cell would like be taking "the temperature of a person with a thermometer the size of the Empire State Building."
