An artificially designed, amyloid-silk hybrid protein developed in Zhang lab at Washington University in St. Louis even outperforms some spider silks.

The researchers used cryogenic scanning transmission electron microscopy and integrated sensitive elemental tomography for 3D imaging.

Nuh Gedik studies the behavior of topological insulators - materials that behave as insulators within but let electrons flow on the surface.

Geoffroy Hautier’s team intends to build a database of viable qbits, which can store information in their spin, by analyzing defects in solids.

His team plans to develop methods and explore ideas in the field of quantum information and quantum computing for complex chemical systems.

A new, $1.5 million Department of Energy grant brings together experts from three institutions to parse the metabolism of a blue-green algae.

The award will develop advanced numerical methods for simulating electrons in heavy-element-containing molecules.

A new study by researchers at the University of Pennsylvania on thin films of glass shows how they can be fabricated to be denser and more stable.

Grant will fund continuing research at Montana State U into microorganisms that display the ability to extract important & useful metals from pyrite.

Department of Energy grant recognizes the University’s long history of quantum research.
