Acenes emitting rainbow of colors
A rendering of stylized molecules known as acenes, emitting red, orange, yellow, green, and blue light. Acenes are chains of fused carbon-containing rings that have unique optoelectronic properties, which make them useful as semiconductors.

Tiny microscopic copepod belonging to genus Euchirella
A tiny microscopic copepod belonging to the genus Euchirella. Researchers found that particles transported to the deep ocean by currents and zooplankton contribute 30 to 40% of the carbon sequestered there.

Laser setup for cooling, controlling, entangling individual molecules
Physicists have linked individual molecules together into special states that are quantum mechanically "entangled" – where molecules remain correlated with each other and can interact simultaneously, even if they are miles apart. Shown here is a laser setup for cooling, controlling and entangling ...This is an NSF Multimedia Gallery item. (Source: NSF Multimedia Gallery)

NLM Science, Technology, and Society Lecture - Confronting Race, Gender, & Ability Bias in Tech with Meredith Broussard
On Wednesday, March 6, 2024 at 2:00 pm ET, the National Library of Medicine (NLM) is hosting its fourth annual Lecture on Science, Technology, and Society with a talk from Meredith Broussard. What if racism, sexism, and ableism aren't just glitches in mostly functional machinery — what if they're coded into our technological systems? In this talk, data scientist and journalist Meredith Broussard explores why neutrality in tech is a myth and how algorithms can be held accountable. Broussard, one of the few Black female researchers in artificial intelligence, explores a range of examples: from facial recognition technology...

Computation model predicts transition states of reactions
During a chemical reaction, molecules gain energy until they reach what’s known as the transition state — a point of no return from which the reaction must proceed. Using generative AI, researchers created a computation model that can rapidly calculate and predict the transition state of a reaction ...This is an NSF Multimedia Gallery item.
