Heatmaps show trematodes congregate in certain parts of amphibians' bodies, often to dire physical consequences

Heatmaps show trematodes congregate in certain parts of amphibians' bodies, often to dire physical consequences

Trematodes, also known as flukes, are a class of parasitic flatworms with intricate lifecycles. This makes them interesting to scientists, but they are also significant to both human health and wildlife conservation.

Researchers describe spin-boson systems to configure quantum devices

Researchers describe spin-boson systems to configure quantum devices

Many of today's quantum devices rely on collections of qubits, also called spins. These quantum bits have only two energy levels, the "0" and the "1." However, spins in real devices also interact with light and vibrations known as bosons, greatly complicating calculations.

Desert locusts' jaws sharpen themselves, materials scientist discovers

Desert locusts' jaws sharpen themselves, materials scientist discovers

Sharks lose teeth all their lives, replacing them in a kind of endless rotating Rolodex, while humans, of course, get only our two sets. Beavers' teeth, notoriously, grow all their lives and have to be worn down to prevent injury.

Researchers reconstruct genome of extinct species of flightless bird that once roamed the islands of New Zealand

A team of evolutionary biologists at Harvard University, working with colleagues from the Max Planck Institute for Biological Intelligence, East Carolina University, Osaka University and the University of Toronto, has reconstructed the genome of an extinct species of flightless bird that has come to be known as the little bush moa.

Researchers reveal evolutionary origins of appetite by studying simple nervous system of Hydra

Researchers reveal evolutionary origins of appetite by studying simple nervous system of Hydra

Over the course of evolution, living organisms have gradually developed more complex nervous systems in order to coordinate increasingly complex sensory, motor and cognitive functions and to control the associated behavior.

Deciphering how crystals form in non-classical ways

Deciphering how crystals form in non-classical ways

Soft and organic crystals are a diverse group of materials with connections to biological, environmental, and industrial processes with a wide range of applications, from pharmaceuticals to flexible electronics. Understanding the details of their crystallization pathways is essential to developing the ability to controllably synthesize new materials and structures with targeted properties.

Unveiling a novel AAK1 inhibitor: How chemical proteomics unlock therapeutic potential

Unveiling a novel AAK1 inhibitor: How chemical proteomics unlock therapeutic potential

Enhancing drug development for life-threatening diseases like cancer hinges on a deep understanding of protein kinases, making it a focal point for researchers. These enzymes, encoded by more than 500 human genes, serve as critical players in cellular signaling pathways.

Heavy water: How melting ice sheets and pumped groundwater can lower local sea levels—and boost them elsewhere

Heavy water: How melting ice sheets and pumped groundwater can lower local sea levels—and boost them elsewhere

Imagine you're standing near the edge of the Antarctic Ice Sheet, gazing out over the ocean, when the ice near you starts to melt very rapidly. A surge of meltwater flows into the ocean. Surprisingly, you watch the sea level fall—not rise.

New study offers a cleaner path for controlling water, transforming greenhouse gases

New study offers a cleaner path for controlling water, transforming greenhouse gases

Scientists looking to convert carbon dioxide into clean fuels and useful chemicals often make hydrogen gas and carbonates as unwanted byproducts. A new paper from the UChicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering has found a cleaner path.
