Creating a virtual brain may sound like a science-fiction nightmare, but for neuroscientists in Japan and at Seattle’s Allen Institute, it’s a big step toward a long-held dream. They say their ...

A remarkably small bacterium containing fewer than 500 genes serves as the basis for one of the most detailed digital life ...

Computational modeling and simulation of nanomaterials strongly complement physical experiments. They enable the prediction of characteristics and processes under conditions difficult to replicate or ...

If a tree falls in the forest, it can create an opening for more incoming light, and that makes a significant impact on the surrounding environment, according to new research. An international science ...

By simulating the life cycle of a minimal bacterial cell, from DNA replication to protein translation to metabolism and cell division, scientists have opened a new frontier of computer vision into the ...

One of the most influential science studies of all time started with a modest minicomputer, some simulated boxes of water molecules, and a grand vision for computer-aided chemistry. The year was 1982.

DETROIT ARSENAL—The Center for Army Analysis has given two of its prestigious Modeling & Simulation awards to the U.S. Army DEVCOM Ground Vehicle Systems Center. Both awards, in the team category—one ...
