A new approach to measuring how internal forces affect biomolecules has increased understanding of, and perhaps even the ability to influence, the behaviour of therapeutic antibodies.

Researchers here have developed a single-step method to synthesise a molecular structure important in drug discovery, which will dramatically speed the search for new drug therapies for pain, neurological disorders and opioid addiction.

A new strategy to enable molecular simulations of complex systems has opened the door to a better understanding of complex materials.

Professors Shankar Balasubramanian and David Klenerman have been awarded the 2022 Breakthrough Prize in Life Sciences - the world's largest science prize.

Dr Anja Schmidt has been recognised by the American Geophysical Union (AGU) for significant contributions to the geophysical sciences by an outstanding early career scientist.

Researchers here have made a tiny camera, held together with ‘molecular glue’ that allows them to observe chemical reactions in real time.

Researchers here have found a way to make a sustainable, edible cellulose gel that changes colour when you press it.

Dr Stephen Cox has been awarded a prestigious Royal Society University Research Fellowship, which will give him the freedom to pursue “interesting, fundamental scientific questions.”

Researchers have shown that human-caused climate change will have important consequences for how volcanic gases interact with the atmosphere.

Congratulations to Dr Robert Phipps, who has been appointed to the position of University Lecturer.

After last year’s Covid-imposed hiatus, a number of enthusiastic researchers joined together to play cricket in the University Inter-departmental Cricket League in June and July.

Members of Professor Angelos Michaelides’ ICE research group have been raising funds for WaterAid at a triathlon event at Castle Howard in York.

Startling inequities in research funding distribution create a huge, unacknowledged barrier to women in the STEMM subjects, said Professor Rachel Oliver in a departmental webinar in June.

PhD student Tim Welsh represented Cambridge University Cycling Club in the National 24-hour Time Trial Championships in July, placing 4th out of a total of 63 competitors on a blisteringly sunny weekend in July.

A massive volcanic eruption in Indonesia about 74,000 years ago likely caused severe climate disruption in many areas of the globe, but early human populations were sheltered from the worst effects.
