Theory, computation, and simulation are foundational to modern energy research. Theoretical understanding reveals why materials and systems behave as they do, predicting performance before experiments ...

The way bugs and birds flap their wings may look effortless, but the dynamics that keep them aloft are dizzyingly complex and ...

For years, the idea of building a working replica of the human brain has lived comfortably in the realm of science fiction. A ...

The transition between wakefulness and states of reduced consciousness, whether pharmacologically induced via anesthesia or pathologically necessitated by ...

This work reviews CM-cfDNA methods applied to clinical oncology, emphasizing both machine learning (ML) techniques and mechanistic approaches. The latter integrate biological principles, enabling a ...

The National Academies will convene a committee to organize a workshop on navigating the benefits and biosecurity risks of communicating studies involving the use of computational modeling and ...

Disturbances to the gut microbiome contribute to health conditions like inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). To better understand how those microbes interact with each other and their environment, ...

How the brain loses consciousness under general anesthesia has long been a puzzle in neuroscience. Three of the most commonly used drugs—propofol, ketamine, and dexmedetomidine—act on entirely ...
