A competition calling for research projects involving so-called AI scientists shows just how fast this technology is moving. A number of startups and university teams that are building “AI scientists” ...

Mendel’s monastery garden experiments went largely unnoticed during his life, but their implications would ripple through science decades later. Gregor Mendel, Austrian botanist and founder of ...

Through new experiments, researchers in Japan and Germany have recreated the chemical conditions found in the subsurface ocean of Saturn's moon, Enceladus. Published in Icarus, the results show that ...

In 1927, Albert Einstein and Neils Bohr debated the nature of what’s known as complementarity—the idea that a photon’s dual wave-like and particle natures can’t be measured at the same time. Now, two ...

A near-100-year-old debate between the theoretical physicists Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr has finally been settled—and not in the former’s favor. A team of physicists in China have realized a ...

WASHINGTON — The defense bill that President Donald Trump signed into law puts an end to many military experiments on cats and dogs and declares a ceasefire to shooting animals in “trauma” exercises.
