Laser-stimulated fluorescence (LSF) imaging of early pterosaurs uncovers new soft tissue data of tail vane that reveals sophisticated, dynamic tensioning usage and expands its evolutionary origins.

Iron-chelating pyoverdines from environmental Pseudomonas spp. show promising antibacterial activity against key human pathogens through the induction of iron starvation, while associated toxicity for host systems remains low.

Analyses of discovered cancer-driving nucleotides (CDNs) reveal their evolutionary, biochemical, and therapeutic characteristics that are often shared among multiple cancer types.

A mathematical model shows that mutations that recur even modestly among cancer patients are cancer driving nucleotides that can be exhaustively identified to serve as targets of cancer therapy.

The evolutionary trajectory of phytophagous weevils reveals how ancient host plant shifts and continental drift influenced the development of diverse insect-plant interactions through time.

The efficacy of eyespots in deterring avian predators is more due to their conspicuousness rather than their resemblance to eyes.

Studying the fecal microbiota of wild baboons helps provide new insight into the factors that influence biological aging.

Spatial genomics reveals the mode of evolution of a tumour based on the positions of mutations in high-resolution samples.
