Our brains use basic 'building blocks' of information to keep track of how people interact, enabling us to navigate complex social interactions, finds a new study. Our brains use basic 'building ...

Nanoscience can arrange minute molecular entities into nanometric patterns in an orderly manner using self-assembly protocols. Scientists have functionalized a simple rod-like building block with ...

The human brain not only remembers who other people are, it also uses basic mathematical functions called basis functions to store information about how people interact — for example, how they work ...

Uracil, a building block of life, has been found on the asteroid Ryugu. Yasuhiro Oba and colleagues discovered the precursor to life in samples collected from the asteroid and returned to Earth by ...

A team of scientists has created low-carbon building blocks that not only reduce greenhouse gas emissions but also minimize ...
