Metastatic spread and chemotherapy resistance are primary reasons for treatment failure and death in cancer patients. The process of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) enables cancer cells…
In a paper recently published in Nature Photonics, scientists from the Center for Quantum Information and Communication – Brussels Polytechnic School of the Free University…
The discovery of quantum Hall effects during the 1980s unveiled new forms of matter termed “Laughlin states”, named after the American Nobel laureate who successfully…
A new type of gravitational wave detector to find tennis ball-sized black holes straight out of the Big Bang. “Detecting primordial black holes opens up…
Causal reasoning is ubiquitous — from physics to medicine, economics and social sciences, as well as in everyday life. Whenever we press the button, the…
Since the very beginning of quantum physics, a hundred years ago, it has been known that all particles in the universe fall into two categories:…
The origin of matter remains a complex and open question. A novel experimental approach — described in Nature Physics — could be exploited to better…
