In the world of chemistry, good things can happen if you just add sugar.
A wide range of drugs and biochemical probes — everything from antibiotics to Alzheimer’s disease biomarkers — rely on natural or synthetic compounds that aid a reaction by adding...
Yale physicists have uncovered hints of a time crystal — a form of matter that “ticks” when exposed to an electromagnetic pulse — in the last place they expected: a crystal you might find in a child’s toy.
The discovery means there are now new puzzles to...
Researchers have pieced together the three-dimensional skull of an iconic, toothed bird that represents a pivotal moment in the transition from dinosaurs to modern-day birds.
Ichthyornis dispar holds a key position in the evolutionary trail that leads...
In a world of changing climate and shifting habitat, species of all sorts are on the move — and so is Yale’s biodiversity research.
On May 2, Yale launched the Max Planck–Yale Center for Biodiversity Movement and Global Change with a daylong symposium....
Researchers at Yale and Donghua University in China have developed a new process for creating lithium metal that may boost the energy and capacity of rechargeable batteries.
Lithium metal is considered the best option as a material for anodes in high-...
A Yale-led research group has created the most detailed maps yet of a vast seedbed of stars similar to Earth’s Sun.
The maps provide unprecedented detail of the structure of the Orion A molecular cloud, the closest star-forming region of high-mass stars....
Yale’s next wave of quantum computing research will get a boost from a $16 million grant from the U.S. Army Research Office.
The four-year grant will help fund the work of dozens of faculty members, graduate students, and postdoctoral researchers...
To fully understand biodiversity and how it is changing, you need to look near, far, and in-between, according to a new study.
Researchers at Yale University studied 50 years of data about nesting birds in North America and tracked biodiversity changes on...
