Scientific breakthroughs will enable exploration of Earth’s biochemical past, with hopes of discovering new therapeutic molecules.

Science author Harold McGee explores all things olfactory in “Nose Dive: A Field Guide to the World’s Smells.”

Harvard scientists have developed a revolutionary new mechanism that could unlock environmentally friendly air conditioning.

Chemical biology professor works to crack secrets of new states of matter.

A team of researchers has developed a new drug delivery system that was able to edit genes associated with high cholesterol and to partially restore vision in mice.

In a new paper, Harvard chemists describe a data-storage method that uses mixtures of seven fluorescent dyes to save files.

Professor Kang-Kuen Ni and her team have collected real experimental data from an unexplored quantum frontier, providing strong evidence of what the theoretical model got right (and wrong) and a roadmap for further exploration into the shadowy next layers of quantum space.

Researchers at Harvard have designed new, highly selective tools that can add or remove sugars from a protein with no off-target effects, to examine exactly what the sugars are doing and engineer them into new treatments for “undruggable” proteins.

Researchers prove they can engineer proteins to find new targets with high selectivity, a critical advance toward potential new treatments to help neuroregeneration, cytokine storm.
