Neither wind, nor rain — nor massive sheets of ice — have kept Earth’s birds from their appointed rounds of migrating to better climes, according to a new study.
That’s the conclusion of a new study from the Max Planck-Yale Center for Biodiversity...
Yale chemists are pushing forward with innovative work to develop tomorrow’s liquid fuels from sunlight.
A quintet of Yale researchers — Sharon Hammes-Schiffer, Nilay Hazari, Patrick Holland, James Mayer, and Hailiang Wang — are among the principal...
A $100 million gift from FedEx will help fund a new center at Yale University focused on developing natural solutions for reducing atmospheric carbon. The Center for Natural Carbon Capture will support and accelerate research across academic disciplines,...
It’s just possible that artificial photosynthesis is right around the corner.
Photosynthesis is the natural process by which sunlight splits water molecules into oxygen, protons, and electrons and reduces carbon dioxide down to carbohydrates. Artificial...
It’s not often that a breakthrough in sustainable chemistry is influenced by a fan letter.
Yet that’s what happened for Yale chemist Hailiang Wang, whose lab creates small-molecule and nanomaterial catalysts that remove unwanted material from the...
Less than a decade after unveiling the “Map of Life,” a global database that marks the distribution of known species across the planet, Yale researchers have launched an ambitious and perhaps even more important project — creating a map of where life has...
