A simple yet powerful method to characterize how lithium deposits in lithium metal batteries could lead to the development of safer, longer-lasting and more energy dense batteries for electric vehicles and grid-scale energy storage.
A new AI tool could make it much easier — and cheaper — for doctors and researchers to train medical imaging software, even when only a small number of patient scans are available. It could lead to faster, more affordable diagnostic tools, especially in hospitals and clinics with limited resources.
A team of University of California San Diego researchers has deployed a groundbreaking new platform to advance science and technology that addresses wildland fire challenges in an era of more frequent and devastating megafires.
A virus that typically infects black-eyed peas is showing great promise as a low-cost, potent cancer immunotherapy—and researchers are uncovering why.
UC San Diego bioengineering professor David Gough devoted nearly half a century to a singular big-picture goal: improving the day-to-day experiences and the outlook on life of people with diabetes.
Researchers have developed a system that blocks malaria transmission in mosquitoes, which continue to be the deadliest animals on Earth. The CRISPR-based gene-editing system changes a single molecule within mosquitoes, a tiny but effective change that stops the malaria-parasite transmission process.
