Next generation lab space boosts energy exploration at Yale’s West Campus
Science on display: A major renovation at Yale’s West Campus concluded this fall with the expansion of the Energy Sciences Institute into a single consolidated space. The planned ‘adjacency’ of scientists and resources is stimulating new ideas for renewable energy and carbon management solutions
Diana Qiu wins Packard fellowship for study of excitons
For her work in studying how matter absorbs light, Diana Qiu, assistant professor at Yale’s Energy Science Institute has won the prestigious Packard Fellowship in Science and Engineering
‘Choosy’ enzymes hit pause to find genes that fit
Researchers at Yale’s Institute of Biomolecular Design and Discovery have devised a new way to measure one of the early ‘pause points’ in gene expression, when enzymes ‘choose’ which genes are turned on and off. Their findings were published today in Molecular Cell
“The ground beneath our feet, the entire globe, is electrically wired”
A new study from the Malvankar Lab at the Microbial Sciences Institute has revealed the previously hidden structure of hair-like proteins inside bacterial nanowires – effectively the molecular on-off switch for nature’s “electric grid”
Analysis unlocks secret of the Vinland Map — it’s a fake
Pairing Yale Library conservators with a team of scientists at the Institute for the Preservation of Cultural Heritage, the most thorough analysis yet performed on the infamous Vinland Map has unlocked its greatest secret
Yale scientists reveal molecular pathway for smarter breast cancer drugs
A discovery by the lab of Jesse Rinehart has cast new light on the behavior of aggressive breast cancer, revealing the molecular pathway of a single key protein and identifying a means of targeting it for therapy
