This image shows a comparison between the synthetic biology–engineered plant (right) and the wild-type plant. Dr. Liao’s team has developed a novel “McG plant” with a mechanism that recycles the ...

CALGARY, Canada — Mars once breathed carbon in and out just like Earth does today. NASA’s Curiosity rover has uncovered evidence that the Red Planet had its own version of Earth’s carbon cycle, a ...

An antidote for carbon monoxide poisoning could come from bacteria. Mice treated with a tweaked version of a bacterial protein rapidly cleared carbon monoxide from their blood, safely eliminating it ...

Courts and regulators are signaling that a company’s duty to explain automated decisions is rapidly becoming a standard expectation, not just a discretionary best practice. Failure to meet these ...

Battery innovation doesn’t always get the spotlight, but maybe it should. After all, it’s one of the few things that truly defines the day-to-day user experience. Over the years, smartphone processors ...
