A team led by CU Boulder has uncovered a distinctive microbial community residing on the former island Hunga Tonga Hunga Ha’apai. In 2015, an underwater…
The University of Bristol researchers have uncovered the reason behind zebra fur being thinly striped and clearly defined. Their findings, published in the Journal of…
Comb jellies—known to scientists as ctenophores (pronounced “teen-oh-fours”)—mesmerize with their beauty, but these captivating creatures remain poorly studied due to their delicate nature. MBARI researchers…
Extremely long tail provides a window into how bacteria-infecting viruses assemble. A recent study in the Journal of Biological Chemistry has revealed the secret behind…
Research study of simulated microbial communities shows analyses are flawed by incomplete DNA databases. Common approaches to analyzing DNA from a community of microbes, called…
Researchers create virus-resistant, safely restrained E. coli for medical, industrial applications. In a step forward for genetic engineering and synthetic biology, researchers have modified a…
Powerful electric fields have the ability to generate pores in biological membranes through a process called electroporation. Deliberately inducing these imperfections in membranes is a…
The novel strains of cyanobacteria exhibit a fast and efficient “biosorption” of rare earth elements, making recycling possible. Rare earth elements (REEs) are a set…
For nearly 190 years, scientists have searched for the origins of ancient sea-going reptiles from the Age of Dinosaurs. Now a team of Swedish and…
Minke whales are as small as a lunge-feeding baleen whale can be. Research on the feeding behavior of Antarctic minke whales found that a smaller…
The human brain, with its intricacies ranging from neural networks to fundamental biological functions and structures, remains elusive in revealing its secrets. However, recent advancements…
Scientists have constructed the first-ever map showing every single neuron and how they’re wired together in the brain of the fruit fly larva. Researchers have…
A new study describes how selfishness can lead to fairness. Physicists have verified a fifty-year-old hypothesis that explains the formation of herds as a result of…
Researchers at EMBL-EBI delve into the UK Biobank data to uncover new information about rare diseases of the eye. Researchers have conducted a thorough examination…
The researchers made a breakthrough discovery of specific airway neurons in mice that alert the brain about the flu virus. A recent study in mice…
A new study sheds light on the organization of proteins within mitochondria. Mitochondria, the “powerhouses” of cells, play a crucial role in the energy production…
A comprehensive understanding of metabolism enables the prediction of the growth of a crucial environmental microbe. A group led by Professor Ralf Rabus, a microbiologist…
