...Cells cleverly separate the most active genes into their own special neighborhood, to make it easier for proteins and other regulators to reach them,” said Job Dekker, a senior author of the paper and associate professor at UMass Medical School...
According to Lars E. Hernquist, professor of astrophysics and another co-researcher, D’Onghia’s findings are important because they uncover specific properties about the formation of galaxies. With her findings, astronomers have another clue as to how galaxies interacted in the younger universe. He explained that this information can help eventually explain how lighter galaxies, such as the Milky Way, were formed...

When scientists were running currents through the device’s magnets in 2008, soon after its completion, a breakdown known as a “quench” occurred that caused overheating, said Joao Guimaraes da Costa, an assistant professor of physics and a member of the Harvard ATLAS team...
Harnessing more powerful computers gives researchers “a sharper knife to a familiar problem,” said study leader Christopher A. Walsh, a Medical School pediatrics professor...
