A newly discovered tiny mammal is sending shockwaves through the evolutionary science world its traits and fossil record are ...

Why do cats generally live longer than dogs? New research suggests that longer lifespans of mammals like cats could be linked ...

Our brain is a complex organ. Billions of nerve cells are wired in an intricate network, constantly processing signals, ...

A recent study published in Papers in Palaeontology describes the discovery and identification of a new species of ...

A pioneering study demonstrates the first successful use of generative AI to design synthetic molecules for gene expression ...

Amniotes split into the sauropsids (leading to birds and reptiles) and synapsids (leading to mammal-like reptiles). These small early mammals developed hair, homeothermy, and lactation (red lines).

A recent study marks the first reported instance of generative AI designing synthetic molecules that can successfully control gene expression in healthy mammalian cells. As a proof-of-concept ...

The (a) intestine, (b) esophagus and (c) stomach are shown. Quiescent stem cells (d) through asymmetric division probably give rise to more rapidly dividing active stem cells, which then produce ...

There are about 5,000 known mammalian species alive at present. Given the average species lifespan for mammals, the background extinction rate for this group would be approximately one species ...

Researchers at Bar-Ilan University reveal protein changes linked to longevity throughout mammalian evolution. Over the past ...

AI-generated enhancers can help engineer ultra-selective switches that nature has not yet invented. They can be designed to have exactly the on/off patterns required in specific types of cells, a ...
