For years, researchers have suspected that a hormone called relaxin could be an effective treatment for certain ...

Scientists want to redesign psychedelics so that they don’t induce a trip—but they still improve mental health.

A new LMU study shows how proteins function reliably even without a stable 3D structure—and the crucial importance not only of short sequence motifs, but also of chemical characteristics. Many ...

Chemists have developed a light-driven method for producing a rare and highly strained molecular structure known as “housane.” Designing a new drug often starts with a basic but difficult task: making ...

The global psychedelic drugs market is poised for significant growth due to increasing clinical research into psychedelics for mental health treatment, particularly for conditions like depression and ...

For people antidepressants can’t help, ketamine changes the brain in ways we can now see In A Nutshell For the first time, researchers used a specialized brain scan to watch how ketamine alters a key ...

Whether a smartphone battery lasts longer or a new drug can be developed to treat incurable diseases depends on how stably the atoms constituting the material are bonded. The core of molecular design ...

Chemists at UCLA are showing that some of organic chemistry’s most famous “rules” aren’t as unbreakable as once thought. By creating bizarre, cage-shaped molecules with warped double bonds—structures ...

Abstract: Accurate extraction of molecular representations is a critical step in the drug discovery process. In recent years, significant progress has been made in molecular representation learning ...

Nestlé announced a recall of some batches of baby formula during the week of Jan. 5, and on Jan. 13 the firm’s CEO, Philipp Navratil, posted a video apology on Nestlé’s website. The recall is due to ...
