A gentler chemistry from Chuan He’s lab improves accuracy and recovery of methylated DNA, advancing epigenetic research and diagnostics.

Summit draws attendees from at least 15 countries, 32 universities and 168 companies.

Harnessing atomic-level precision and computational intelligence to build materials of the future.

Partnership with IonQ enables faculty and students to conduct cutting-edge research and translate to real-world applications benefiting society.

A new study from the University of Chicago, MIT and Harvard is shedding light on how to improve the way artificial intelligence learns and reasons. A video Interview with Assoc. Prof. Chenhao Tan and PhD Student Xiaoyan Bai.

Nick Feamster and Francesco Bronzino lead international collaboration to develop generative AI techniques that create high-fidelity network data, addressing critical challenges in machine learning, privacy, and network security.

Research led by UChicago’s Eliza Kempton finds some ‘mini-Neptunes’ likely have solid surfaces rather than molten interiors.

UChicago-affiliated laboratories each receive $125 million to advance next-generation quantum science and technology.

Two scientists, including David Keith, argue that the growing commercial efforts to counter climate change by reflecting away sunlight will thwart responsible research in the field.

Scientists report the discovery of surprisingly water-rich exoplanets, despite forming in places once believed to be far too hot for water to exist. Now, a new study published in the journal Nature suggests these mysterious water worlds may be manufacturing their own oceans through chemical reactions deep within their interiors.

Current quantum computers are noisy, which places limitations on the type of quantum machine needed to outpace classical computers. An op-ed by Bill Fefferman.

Why the challenge of truly representative democracy is so complex.

Research internships at national laboratories provide hands-on experiences and mentorship.

An exoplanet is what we call planets that exist outside of our own solar system. The first one was discovered in 1992, but as we get more powerful and precise telescopes and instruments, scientists have been discovering more and more of these faraway planets—about 6,000 of them so far. But scientists think there are trillions more out there in the universe.

Collaboration will expand nation’s AI infrastructure and accelerate scientific discovery.
