Deep soils vital for life host an active new microbial phylum, CSP1-3. These microbes may be key to innovative water ...

Tiny magnetic bacteria that live in tightly bound groups are showing scientists how life might have evolved complex, multicellular forms. These rare bacteria can’t survive alone – they depend on one ...

"Most people would think that these organisms are just like spores or dormant," James Tiedje said. "These microbes are active ...

Scientists are on the verge of achieving what's eluded them for 25 years: creating a working computer simulation of the simplest brain we know - that of a tiny worm with just 300 neurons. As reported ...

The mystery of how multicellular life evolved has long baffled scientists, who’ve spent years trying to understand how ...

Humans like to think that being multicellular (and bigger) is a definite advantage, even though 80% of life on Earth consists ...

This technique, called volumetric DNA microscopy, creates a 3D image of an entire organism from the inside out, giving scientists an unprecedented view of genetic sequences and where they are ...

For the first time in 25 years, Donkervoort will move away from Audi-sourced turbocharged engines in favor of something new. The P24 RS name has deep connections to Donkervoort’s family and history.

Putting aside for a second the image you might have of superheroes or monsters, in the real world, mutations are simply changes in the genes of an organism. These can happen as an organism ...
