Findings reveal the early events that take place during tuberculosis infection, and provide a model for future research into respiratory and other infections.
New findings suggest sex-specific differences in mice vary by physical and physiological features – a fact that must be considered when designing biological and medical studies.
Scientists have used high-resolution GPS tracking methods to provide new insights into how differently sized animal groups move and interact with their environment.
Scientists have overturned an accepted theory in plant science by showing that plants can photosynthesise in the absence of the pigment beta-carotene, paving the way for redesigning photosynthesis to improve crop productivity.
Transparent soil substitutes can be used to study the interactions of bacteria and fungi in the soil, which may enable scientists to learn more about how soil microbes contribute to a healthy ecosystem.
Physicists and biologists challenge a prevailing evolutionary theory that single-celled organisms can only evolve to become multicellular life forms if doing so increases their overall productivity.
New deep learning software for analysing the choreography of protein movement removes the need for expert human intervention and opens up the field to more labs worldwide.
