This rainforest tree solved one of evolution’s hardest problems. Here’s how it evolved to use tension and geometry to fire ...

Mitochondrial dysfunction is associated with various chronic diseases and cancers, including neurodegenerative diseases and ...

A large genetic screen has revealed how stem cells transform into brain cells, exposing hundreds of genes that make this ...

Despite the immense amount of genetic material present in each cell, around 3 billion base pairs in humans, this material ...

A new study reveals how biological branching networks use surface geometry to shape blood vessels, brains, and plants.

Scientists at Nagoya University in Japan have identified the genes that allow an organism to switch between living as single ...

Evolutionary algorithms have emerged as a robust alternative to traditional greedy approaches for decision tree induction. By mimicking the natural selection process, these algorithms iterate over a ...

Natural physical networks are continuous, three-dimensional objects, like the small mathematical model displayed here.
