Designing new reaction sequences to build complex materials can be a slow process, especially when each step involves multiple variables. A new machine learning–guided microfluidics platform could ...

A new form of agricultural pest control could one day take root—one that treats crop infestations deep under the ground in a targeted manner with less pesticide. Engineers at the University of ...

Biomedical engineers at Duke University have developed a platform that combines automated wet lab techniques with artificial ...

Glow-in-the-dark plants bright enough to light up streets at night may sound like the stuff of science fiction or fantasy.

One of the biggest advantages of the new polymer-based nanoparticles over current lipid-based models is the potential for low ...

Engineers have devised a new solution to control a major agricultural menace, root-damaging nematodes. Using plant viruses, the researchers created nanoparticles that can deliver pesticide molecules ...
