Scientists from the University of Ottawa have invented a unique method to create better molecule-based magnets, known as single-molecule magnets (SMMs). This synthetic tour de force has resulted in a two-coordinate lanthanide complex which has magnet-like properties that are intrinsic to the molecule itself. This discovery opens the door to high-density hard disks, quantum computing applications, ...

When patients are suspected of having a primary brain tumour, also known as a glioma, they typically undergo a biopsy or a resection — procedures that involve surgically removing a sample of the tumour to further analyze it. Biopsies help oncologists confirm the existence of a tumour and determine whether it’s malignant or benign. This data also guides oncologists in choosing the proper course of ...

Humans are visual beings; what we see can affect the way we think, feel, and act. Images have great power as they leave long-lasting impressions on the way we perceive our environment and greatly influence our behaviour. When used correctly, images can foster a sense of inclusion.

Imagine if there was a way to remove pollutants from water and soil, neutralize chemical weapons and treat various diseases with low environmental and health risks? Although this might sound like fantasy, this could one day become reality with the help of novel engineered enzymes.
