A remarkably small bacterium containing fewer than 500 genes serves as the basis for one of the most detailed digital life ...

Computational modeling and simulation of nanomaterials strongly complement physical experiments. They enable the prediction of characteristics and processes under conditions difficult to replicate or ...

Creating a virtual brain may sound like a science-fiction nightmare, but for neuroscientists in Japan and at Seattle’s Allen Institute, it’s a big step toward a long-held dream. They say their ...

If a tree falls in the forest, it can create an opening for more incoming light, and that makes a significant impact on the surrounding environment, according to new research. An international science ...

One of the most influential science studies of all time started with a modest minicomputer, some simulated boxes of water molecules, and a grand vision for computer-aided chemistry. The year was 1982.

How in-house-developed and third-party general-purpose simulation tools are limited to a few expert users and aren’t easily shareable. How multiphysics simulation of subsystems can result in an ...

A new open-source model of brain metabolism, developed by scientists at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), has shown how altering key chemicals could restore aged cells to their youthful ...
