Sea urchin skeletons may owe some of their strength to a common geometric design. Urchin skeletons display “an incredible diversity of structures at the microscale, varying from fully ordered to ...

In our newly published research in Science Advances, my student Ben Alessio and I propose a potential mechanism explaining how these distinctive patterns form—that could potentially be applied to ...

Researchers have, for the first time, directly visualized how electronic patterns known as charge density waves evolve across ...

A new study proposes detecting life in space by spotting patterns across many planets instead of focusing on one at a time. If life spreads and changes planetary environments, it could leave behind ...
