When most people think of shapes, they imagine a triangle, a rectangle, or maybe even a fancier- sounding rhombus or trapezoid. But to mathematicians, shapes encompass a vast universe of surprising ...
DeepMind has expanded its database of microscopic biological mechanisms, hoping to accelerate research into all living things. By Cade Metz In 2020, an artificial intelligence lab called DeepMind ...
DNA can mimic protein functions by folding into elaborate, three-dimensional structures, according to a study from researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine and the National Heart, Lung, and Blood ...
It can be tempting to assume that your intuitions about three-dimensional space carry over to higher-dimensional realms. After all, adding another dimension simply creates a new direction to move ...
Scientists have discovered a three-dimensional shape, dubbed a scutoid, that is entirely new to geometry, according to a study published in the journal Nature Communications. An international team of ...
Mathematicians are “reinventing the wheel” by giving it a new shape. Their newly imagined wheel looks like a many-dimensional guitar pick, and it could theoretically roll in ways beyond our ...
Researchers have created a polymer “Chinese lantern” that can snap into more than a dozen curved, three-dimensional shapes by ...
Today, DeepMind announced that it has seemingly solved one of biology's outstanding problems: how the string of amino acids in a protein folds up into a three-dimensional shape that enables their ...
