The top-tier instrumentation at Carnegie’s Earth and Planets Laboratory (EPL) makes it one of the best places in the world to study materials under pressure. Jill Yang is the high-pressure research ...

Metabolism is one of the strongest drivers of interkingdom interactions-including those between microorganisms and their multicellular hosts. Traditionally thought to fuel energy requirements and ...

Recent computational studies have predicted that rare-earth superhydrides are promising high-temperature superconductors. Of these phases having very high hydrogen content (XHn, n > 6, where X is the ...

The Visible Integral-field Replicable Unit Spectrograph (VIRUS) consists of 156 identical spectrographs (arrayed as 78 pairs) fed by 35,000 fibers, each 1.5 arcsec diameter, at the focus of the ...

Crystal structures of minerals are defined by a specific atomic arrangement within the unit-cell, which follows the laws of symmetry specific to each crystal system. The causes for a mineral to ...

We report the discovery of two ultra-faint satellites in the vicinity of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) in data from the Magellanic Satellites Survey (MagLiteS). Situated 18 deg (similar to 20 kpc) ...

The adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene product is mutated in the vast majority of human colorectal cancers. APC negatively regulates the WNT pathway by aiding in the degradation of beta-catenin, ...

Difficulty in imaging the vertebrate intestine in vivo has hindered our ability to model nutrient and protein trafficking from both the lumenal and basolateral aspects of enterocytes. Our goal was to ...

The Drosophila Gateway™ Vector collection is a set of 68 Gateway-based vectors designed to express epitope-tagged proteins in Drosophila culture cells or flies. At its core is Invitrogen's Gateway™ ...

Join us for a journey to the closest planet to our Sun! Despite major discoveries made by NASA space mission MESSENGER, many questions remain unanswered about the interior and history of Mercury.

Maintaining a venue for promising but risky ventures has become especially important as the mainstream research system increasingly selects for projects that extend accepted wisdom, rather than ...

5241 Broad Branch Road, N.W. The Earth & Planets Laboratory (EPL) is located on the Carnegie Institution for Science's Broad Branch Road Campus (BBR). BBR is also home to the Carnegie headquarters and ...
