Live Webinar: Cryogenic Electron Microscopy and Tomography VisualizE Molecules, Viruses, and Cells
Cryogenic electron microscopy and tomography have exceeded expectations in resolving structural features from biological molecules, including protein machines, RNAs, and viruses. Tomography is also evolving to yield subnanometer-resolution structures of macromolecules undergoing biological processes in situ. Register now.

Energy Crises and Climate Change in the 1970s
In the third episode of a 12-week podcast on untold physics history, we discuss efforts undertaken by the Department of Energy in the late-1970s to study the environmental, economic, and social consequences of anthropogenic climate change. A handful of scientists began organizing a research program within the new Department of Energy to try to understand the consequences of relying on more fossil fuels. Listen now.
Rheologically speaking, avalanches are like earthquakes
With the help of a professional snowboarder, researchers captured crack-propagation data from an avalanche in the Swiss Alps.
