A trick from tardigrades could help human blood withstand freezing

Tardigrades survive conditions that would destroy most other living things: freezing, dehydration and the vacuum of space. Researchers even put tiny tattoos on them, and the animals don't seem to mind. By learning how these critters carry on, researchers hope to find ways to prot

Nickel catalyst unlocks hard-to-make β-amino alcohols

Many molecules in living organisms and pharmaceuticals share a structure called a β-amino alcohol, in which an amino group and a hydroxyl group sit on neighboring carbon atoms. These groups, important building blocks in biology and medicine, are found in compounds such as sphingo
