Scientists from the Max Planck Institute for Marine Microbiology have discovered deep-sea animals living in symbiosis with bacteria that use oil as an energy source…
Researchers have developed reconstruction software that allows them to fly through the brain tissue at unprecedented speed, gaining an about 10-fold speedup for data analysis…
Researchers have successfully recovered and analyzed ancient DNA from Egyptian mummies dating from approximately 1400 BCE to 400 CE, including the first genome-wide nuclear data…
A team of astronomers has discovered a new kind of galaxy in the early universe, less than a billion years after the Big Bang. These…
First radio observations of the planetary-mass object OTS44 reveal a dusty protoplanetary disk that is very similar to disks around young stars. Astronomers are surprised…
A newly published study from the Max Planck Institute shows that quantum systems can synchronize through self-organization, without any external control. As if by magic,…
A team of researchers has succeeded in producing large quantities of Zika viruses in the laboratory – a crucial prerequisite for the production of vaccines….
An international group of astrophysicists try to find out how strong the “gravitational noise” from the Milky Way is. It is widely known that our…
Using the separate universe simulations technique, researchers reveal some of the most precise measurements of the local bias – confirming the known trend that more…
Using the light of double quasars, a team led by researchers has made the first measurements of small-scale fluctuations in the cosmic web just 2…
Researchers at the Max Planck Institute have developed a method that can detect the disease at an early stage. New research on healthy volunteers and…
New research reveals that the RNA molecule miR-22 controls the oestrogen receptor in male mice. Muscles consume a large part of the body’s energy. Hence…
New research from scientists at the Max Planck Institute of Neurobiology shows how the brain extracts this essential motion information, revealing the cells that enable…
Using the Event Horizon Telescope project, observatories around the world are ready to begin measurements of the black hole at the center of the Milky…
A new set of observations of very young galaxies show that they are completely dominated by ‘normal’ matter, suggesting that dark matter plays a much…
Researchers at the Max Planck Institute show that a molecule consisting of three adjoined sugars induces an immune response against Streptococcus pneumoniae. It may not…
Scientists from the Max Planck Institute have determined the age of the bright material on Ceres, revealing that it is roughly four million years old….
A team of researchers from the Max Planck Institute has developed a metal-organic framework compound that can be used to separate deuterium and tritium from…
