A new platform combines rational protein design with continuous evolution to discover functional molecules more efficiently. In medicine and biotechnology, the ability to evolve proteins with new or ...

In a suspected case of reverse evolution, wild tomatoes in the Galápagos have developed a defense mechanism that hasn’t been seen in millions of years.

"Our results emphasize the role of manipulative abilities in brain evolution and reveal how neural and bodily adaptations are interconnected in primate evolution," the researchers conclude in the ...

3D cell models like spheroids and organoids are transforming the way we study complex biological processes—but they come with challenges. To meet this need, Sartorius has introduced the Incucyte ® CX3 ...

Plant a seed and, if the conditions are right, the seed grows. The process seems simple enough at first glance and is something many of us may feel like we learned in elementary school.

Scientists have recently shed some light on exactly why elephants, one of the biggest animals on the planet, paradoxically experience unusually low rates of cancer. The research found these remarkable ...

An international team of researchers led by scientists from the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig ...

Interestingly, the closest living algal relatives of land plants—the Zygnematophyceae—are much simpler in structure, ...
