Scientists Establish the Best Algorithm for Traversing a Map
Dijkstra’s algorithm was long thought to be the most efficient way to find a graph’s best routes. Researchers have now proven that it’s “universally optimal.”.....»»
Scientists create portable, miniature high-speed "electronic nose" that outperforms mice
A group of scientists led by University of Hertfordshire researchers have collaborated to create a particularly fast and small "electronic nose.".....»»
The Milky Way represents an outlier among similar galaxies, universe survey data shows
For decades, scientists have used the Milky Way as a model for understanding how galaxies form. But three new studies raise questions about whether the Milky Way is truly representative of other galaxies in the universe......»»
Scientists discover the molecular composition of potentially deadly venomous fish
New research in FEBS Open Bio reveals insights into the venom of two of the most venomous fish species on Earth: the estuarine stonefish (Synanceia horrida) and the reef stonefish (Synanceia verrucosa), which are typically found in the warm and shall.....»»
Algorithm predicts DNA methylation in ancient specimens, providing insight into human evolution
Research published in Nature Ecology & Evolution introduces a novel method for inferring DNA methylation patterns in non-skeletal tissues from ancient specimens, providing new insights into human evolution. As DNA methylation is a key marker of gene.....»»

Novel AI algorithm captures photons in motion
Close your eyes and picture the iconic "bullet time" scene from "The Matrix"—the one where Neo, played by Keanu Reeves, dodges bullets in slow motion. Now imagine being able to witness the same effect, but instead of speeding bullets, you're watchi.....»»
Advancements in genomic research reveal alternative transcription initiation sites in thousands of soybean genes
Rosalind Franklin, James Watson and Francis Crick discovered the structure of DNA—that molecular blueprint for life—over 70 years ago. Today, scientists are still uncovering new ways to read it......»»

By exerting "crowd control" over mouse cells, scientists make progress towards engineering tissues
Genes aren't the sole driver instructing cells to build multicellular structures, tissues, and organs. In a paper published in Nature Communications, USC Stem Cell scientist Leonardo Morsut and Caltech computational biologist Matt Thomson characteriz.....»»
With new imaging approach, scientists closely analyze microbial adhesive interactions
Scientists have identified many types of bacteria in the mouth, but many problems remain in understanding how they work with one another. One of the problems is that microbes assemble themselves into densely packed multi-species biofilms. Their densi.....»»
Trust in scientists hasn’t recovered from COVID. Some humility could help.
Intellectual humility could win back much-needed trust in science, study finds Scientists could win back trust lost during the COVID-19 pandemic if they just showed a little intel.....»»
Redefining net zero will not stop global warming, scientists say
In a study, led by the University of Oxford's Department of Physics and published 18 November in Nature, an international group of authors who developed the science behind net zero demonstrate that relying on 'natural carbon sinks' like forests and o.....»»
Tiny worm makes for big evolutionary discovery: Scientists describe "Uncus," the oldest ecdysozoan
Everyone has a past. That includes the millions of species of insects, arachnids, and nematode worms that make up a major animal group called the Ecdysozoa......»»
Researchers characterize regulating mechanism of orderly zygotic genome activation in early embryos
Early development of an embryo is solely supported by maternally deposited RNAs and proteins until its own genome is activated through a process called zygotic genome activation (ZGA). Recent work by Chinese scientists has revealed a novel molecular.....»»
Citizen scientists help explain magenta aurora over Japan
Citizen scientists in Japan enabled researchers to learn why May 2024's aurora appeared a magenta color over the country. This effort in extending research beyond academies and laboratories has greater consequences for humanity than explaining pretty.....»»
Nature-inspired solar lasers could sustainably power space missions
