Researchers from IIT Kanpur and IISc have created a framework for pricing and trading data.

A recent study by UPES, Uttarakhand, and the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kanpur explores the potential of using computer vision for gait analysis as an early detection tool for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

A new microfluidic chip holder from IIT Kanpur is flexible and reliable and allows microscopy imaging.

A new study by researchers at IIT Kanpur offers insights into air pollution in two cities across the Indo-Gangetic plains.

Researchers have shown that two receptors previously known as ‘silent receptors’ are not truly silent and that they signal via a different mechanism than was expected.

Study identifies the role of DLX1 gene in prostate cancer demonstrating how its elimination leads to reduced carcinogenesis in mice models

In a recent study published in Nature Communications, researchers have described a new statistical method, ‘LinTIMaT’, for reconstructing cellular lineages, giving scientists the ability to deduce the evolution of cells in a biologically growing system.

This article is a tribute to Phillip Anderson, who passed away on March 29, 2020.  Besides his pioneering works in condensed-matter physics, he also wrote extensively on the theme of reductionism and multiscale physics.

Modern science reveals that matter is made of atoms and molecules. Molecules in liquids and gases move randomly; there is an average distance between two nearest molecules. This distance is used to model the properties of the gas. However, there are certain problems, like  turbulence, that cannot be solved using just the distance, which is a single scale. We need to consider all scales from large to small. Such systems are called multiscale systems.
