A sugar mixture similar to hard candy studded with tiny metal discs or rings has been used to deposit patterns onto microscopic objects. This method of creating texture on small objects could be ...

The patterns of interest are leucine-aspartic acid motifs. These are short amino acid sequences found within some proteins designed to connect them to the cellular molecules which control cell ...

Columbia Engineering scientists have developed a machine learning system that can use the pattern produced by nanocrystals to estimate the material’s atomic structure, according to a recent study ...
