The researchers then used cryo-EM to visualize the 3D structure of the RNA polymerase in this active, RNA-bound state at molecular resolution.

Scientists have found a way to more than double the uptake ability of a chemical structure that can be used for scrubbing carbon dioxide from factory flues.

The FDA could approve or reject MDMA, or postpone a decision if it needs more time to review data and investigate claims of irregularities in Lykos Therapeutics' trials.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration held a meeting to discuss a therapy based on the psychedelic drug MDMA for patients with post-traumatic stress disorder for the first time.

There's excitement and controversy swirling around the potential use of MDMA for treating post-traumatic stress disorder. On Tuesday, a panel of advisers to the FDA will evaluate the data.

The chemical structure of the drug, invented and patented by the pharmaceutical giant Merck in 1912, had long been in the public domain.

MDMA — the chemical found in the drug ecstasy — has appeared effective for treating PTSD in clinical trials. But there are concerns about the quality of the research.
