Mammoth Biosciences researchers have developed NanoCas, an ultracompact CRISPR nuclease, demonstrating its ability to perform gene editing in non-liver tissues, including skeletal muscle, using a single adeno-associated virus ...
The extinction of the largest dinosaurs to walk the Earth may have played a critical role in creating an environment that helped fruits evolve, thereby indirectly shaping the evolution of our own fruit-eating ancestors, according ...
Global warming is producing a rapid loss of plant species—according to estimates, roughly 600 plant species have died out since 1750—twice the number of animal species lost. But which species are hit hardest? And how does ...
Monash researchers have developed a novel AI program to assist scientists in the global fight against the scourge of environmental microplastics. The research is published in the Journal of Hazardous Materials.
About 19,000 years ago, a woman from a group of hunter-gatherers died and was buried in a cave in northern Spain. In 1996, archaeologists started exploring the cave, finding abundant evidence of prehistoric people and their ...
In a paper published in Nature Communications, researchers at the Industrial Sustainable Chemistry group of the University of Amsterdam (UvA) present a solution to the challenging problem of recycling polycotton textile waste.
Even by the standards of Io, the most volcanic celestial body in the solar system, recent events observed on the Jovian moon are extreme.
Dr. Alba Rey-Iglesia and her colleagues conducted a biomolecular analysis of the mammoth bone remains at Kostenki 11-Ia, providing fascinating insights into the enigmatic mammoth bone complexes built during the Ice Age. The ...
Treating hair loss may be as simple as developing therapies to flip a molecular "switch," according to a new study by researchers from Penn State; the University of California, Irvine; and National Taiwan University.
Russian scientists on Monday showed off the remarkably well preserved remains of a baby mammoth found in the permafrost-covered region of Yakutia.
