Scientists have finally recreated the initial steps of HIV infection in a test tube, offering an incredibly zoomed-in view of the virus in action. The amazing images show a cone-shaped shell of ...

We are at a critical time and supporting climate journalism is more important than ever. Science News and our parent organization, the Society for Science, need your help to strengthen environmental ...

40 years ago, on July 25, 1978, Louise Brown became the world's first "test-tube baby." Newsweek featured the remarkable infant on its cover the following week and published a long piece about the ...

Confined nanoscale geometry greatly influences physical transformations in materials. The electron microscope enables direct visualization of these changes. We examined the evolution of a germanium ...

Physical changes in a nanoscale system can be accurately measured by restricting the reaction in a carbon 'nano test tube'. It can be difficult to observe physical changes in a nanostructure, because ...

Hate to burst your bubble, glass lab gear. But plastic bubble wrap also works pretty well at running science experiments. Scientists at Harvard University have figured out a way to use these petite ...
