Scientists found the first natural proof that underwater volcanoes make ammonia without biology, a reaction that may have ...

Scientists are digging into one of evolution’s strangest puzzles — why only certain creatures developed minds that know they ...

The race to understand the brain has just crossed a threshold that once belonged to science fiction. Using one of the world’s fastest supercomputers, researchers have assembled a digital mouse cortex ...

Quantum physics is usually associated with particle colliders and vacuum chambers, not with the proteins quietly shuttling ...

Background and aim Juvenile idiopathic arthritis-associated uveitis (JIAU) is a potentially blinding condition beginning in ...

Biological communities are rarely stable. Their composition is constantly changing, depending on the environmental conditions in the respective ecosystems—and sometimes this change is so vast that ...

Scientists uncover a basic principle that shows how higher nutrient levels change the pace of cell growth, revealing a ...

How animals may modify their behavior depending on their context has been modeled mathematically by two RIKEN neuroscientists. Their simple but biologically plausible model could shed light on mental ...

The performance of skilled behaviors requires a balance between consistency and adaptability. Although the neural mechanisms that regulate this balance have been extensively studied at systems and ...
