A toothy grinned monster was lurking in the basement collection of a museum in Canada: The fossilized jaw of a beast that once roamed the bluffs along the South Saskatchewan River, competing with saber-toothed cats (Smilodon) ...
Our genes are encoded in the DNA sequence of the genome, which is highly similar across the diverse cell types of our body. Yet, each cell can only access those genes that are in an epigenetically permissive state. The epigenome ...
Our planet's worst mass extinction event happened 252 million years ago when massive volcanic eruptions caused catastrophic climate change. The vast majority of animal species went extinct, and when the dust settled, the ...
Mongolia's semi-arid plateau may soon become as barren as parts of the American Southwest due to a "vicious cycle" of heatwaves—that exacerbates soil drying, and ultimately produces more heatwaves—according to an international ...
Humans may have reached the Americas over 30,000 years ago, new research from international teams of scientists shows—a period 15,000 years earlier than previously thought.
Electrode-polymer interfaces can dictate properties of thin films including their capacitance, electric field, and charge transport, but scientists remain to fully comprehend their interfacial dynamics. In a new report on ...
A novel system to amplify gene expression signals could be a game-changer for scientists who study the regulatory processes in cells that are central to all life.
Before the Taqba Dam impounded the Euphrates River in northern Syria in the 1970s, an archaeological site named Abu Hureyra bore witness to the moment ancient nomadic people first settled down and started cultivating crops. ...
