Make way for some new memsistors.
For years, the computer industry has sought memory technologies with higher endurance, lower cost, and better energy efficiency than commercial flash memories. Now, an international collaboration of scientists may have...
A Yale-led research team has discovered a cache of embryo-like microfossils in northern Mongolia that may shed light on questions about the long-ago shift from microbes to animals on Earth.
Called the Khesen Formation, the site is one of the most...
An algorithm that helps engineers design better helicopters may help astronomers more precisely envision the formation of planets and galaxies.
Yale researchers Darryl Seligman and Greg Laughlin have created a new model for understanding how black holes,...
Two postdoctoral researchers have been named finalists of the 2017 Blavatnik Regional Awards for Young Scientists. Established in 2007, the awards are given annually by the Blavatnik Family Foundation, and administered by the New York Academy of Sciences...
Yale scientists have created a simple-to-produce device that uses sound waves to store quantum information and convert it from one form to another, all inside a single, integrated chip.
The device allows a superconducting artificial atom — a qubit — to...
The most-studied galaxy in the universe — the Milky Way — might not be as “typical” as previously thought, according to a new study.
The Milky Way, which is home to Earth and its solar system, is host to several dozen smaller galaxy satellites. These...
Researchers are learning more about the evolution of echinoderms, the group that includes sand dollars, sea urchins, and starfish, thanks to new evidence of the tentacle-like, tube feet of an extinct group of sea creatures.
Tube feet enable starfish and...
Yale scientists have developed a new class of small molecules that attack fungal infections by clinging to the cell wall of harmful fungi and recruiting a swarm of antibodies to join the fight.
The discovery offers a potential new therapeutic approach to...
After three years of study, discussion, and experimentation, Yale University has implemented a carbon charge that affects more than 250 buildings and nearly 70% of campus carbon dioxide emissions.
The carbon charge began July 1. Yale is the first...
