Knowing how a tumor will spread could potentially lead to more efficient and targeted therapy, so Yankeelov and his lab have applied this same mathematical modeling approach to breast cancer tumors.

In Japan, the new year began with disaster as a 7.5 magnitude earthquake struck the Noto peninsula on the country’s western edge on Monday. Dozens more aftershocks, many measuring between four and six in magnitude, shook near the coastal epicenter in the hours since, and scientists warn that more are expected in the coming days.

In the specialized world of welding, where sparks fly and metal literally melts, the marriage of artificial intelligence and human craftsmanship is revolutionizing the landscape. "Making Smart Tools Work for Everyone" — one of the Good Systems grand challenge’s six core research projects — is…

In and out of the workplace, people often keep adverse information about themselves secret because they worry that others will judge them harshly. But those fears are overblown, according to new research from the McCombs School of Business.

While technologies have advanced rapidly, archaeological digs remain as laborious today as they were a century ago. New tools have accelerated the pace at which one might be able to find what lies beneath the ground, but they haven’t eliminated the need for getting down on your hands and knees and delicately assessing what might be there.

How to improve the process of pharmaceutical patent approvals is the focus of a new study by a researcher at The University of Texas at Austin’s School of Law. The result could potentially save consumers billions of dollars from lower prices and increased access to medications.

Particle accelerators hold great potential for semiconductor applications, medical imaging and therapy, and research in materials, energy and medicine. But conventional accelerators require plenty of elbow room — kilometers — making them expensive and limiting their presence to a handful of national labs and universities.

Scientists have discovered that bacteria can create something like memories about when to form strategies that can cause dangerous infections in people, such as resistance to antibiotics and bacterial swarms when millions of bacteria come together on a single surface.

The Pharr Memorial Library is proud to announce the opening of a thought-provoking new exhibition, "Looking to the Future: Youth Perspectives on the Environment," presented by the Coalition for Youth, Health, and the Environment, in collaboration with Texas Children in Nature (TCiNN) and The…

A new scientific technique could significantly improve the reference frames that millions of people rely upon each day when using GPS navigation services, according to a recently published article in Radio Science.
