The research began by asking whether a minimal structural pattern could be meaningfully applied across very different domains. To explore this, the researchers introduced a four-phase structure — ...

A bizarre "Rule of Four" has been identified in the basic structure of the majority of inorganic materials—and scientists are stumped as to why. The pattern is found in the so-called "unit cell" of ...

Structural patterns can be created due to the chasing interactions between two bacterial species. In a new model, scientists describe how interactions on the individual level can result in a global ...

Healthy aging induces parallel changes in brain functional activity and structural morphology, yet the interplay between these changes remains unclear. Prof. Yuhui Du's team at the College of Computer ...

Age-related cognitive decline is closely tied to changes in brain structure and functional interactions. Most prior neuroimaging studies have investigated aging using a single modality, either ...
