A postdoctoral researcher in the department of physics and biology at Princeton University gave a guest lecture about a ...

Jovine, the cofounder and chief scientist of Brilliant Planet, is trying to engineer high-growth microalgae strains to ...

Harmful algal blooms, sometimes called HABs, occur when algae grow out of control. Algae are photosynthetic organisms that mostly live in water and ...

Under the sea ice during the Arctic’s pitch-black polar night, cells power photosynthesis on the lowest light levels ever ...

What would happen if a 500-meter asteroid hit Earth? Scientists at the IBS Center for Climate Physics modeled the aftermath, ...

This allows the plant to capture and store carbon dioxide until the Sun rises again, offering the light necessary to complete photosynthesis. Algae are widely thought to conduct half of the world ...

Giant clams grow huge by relying on algae for energy. Scientists found genes that help them live with algae and grow big.

New research reveals the hidden role quantum mechanics plays in photosynthesis, opening the door for breakthroughs in clean ...

The team isolated the chloroplasts from algal cells using a centrifuge and gentle stirring. Instead of then piercing the host cells’ membranes, as in earlier work, the researchers adjusted the culture ...
