Bright ideas, hidden pathways: Florida State University researchers discover mechanism for inefficient photoreactions in molecules
Florida State University researchers have discovered a pathway within a certain type of molecule that limits chemical reactions by redirecting light energy. The study could help develop more efficient reactions for pharmaceuticals and other products.
FSU chemist named Rising Star for contributions to clean energy discovery, storage
A Florida State University researcher has been honored for her work developing new materials that enable more efficient energy storage and produce cleaner energy for daily use, ranging from phones and laptops to electric cars and renewable energy systems.
FSU researchers discover new protein-RNA interaction with potential to treat fibrosis
A research team at Florida State University’s Institute of Molecular Biophysics and Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry has discovered how a protein found in the human body interacts with RNA in a way that could lead to new treatments for tissue scarring also known as fibrosis.
