Active children are more resilient

The school year has hardly begun and the first exams are already approaching. According to findings by researchers from the University of Basel, school children cope better with the stress if they get plenty of daily exercise.

Deciphering the 'highway code' of our cells

Cancers, degenerative diseases: deregulation of our cells' internal communication pathways is at the root of many conditions. Microtubules -- microscopic protein filaments -- play a crucial role in controlling these exchanges. However, their mechanisms remain poorly understood. A team has identified a new mechanism, involving two proteins, that governs their growth. The discovery opens up unprecedented prospects for the development of new treatments that can act at the very heart of cells.

Linking two solar technologies is a win-win for efficiency and stability

Researchers have connected silicon and perovskite solar cells in a tandem device to protect the frail perovskite solar cell from voltage-induced breakdown while unlocking greater efficiencies than either cell can achieve on their own.
