Using a trick inspired by noise-cancellation headphones, we have been able to control the motion of a millimeter-sized drum at the “quantum level”, even though...
Though most spiders crawl from one location to another, some families of spiders travel through the air. This is known as ballooning. To better understand...
With low-cost protein expression technology, we developed cheap and easy-to-use kits to teach molecular biology lessons, allowing access to hands-on biology...
Known as the ‘molecule of life’, DNA is found in every cell in our body, providing a set of instructions for the function and organization throughout our...
Genome editors are simple tools that allow scientists to make very precise changes to the genome of any organism. Here we present the use of these "gene...
Our Earth did not always look like the yellow-blue planet surrounded by clouds that we know today. Changes in the relative abundance of markers present in...
Genes encode proteins that perform functions in our bodies, so when we lose genes, we lose the ability to perform their associated tasks. For marine mammals,...
Technology has enabled the productions of small-scale fluid jets with precision nozzles and pumps, and pressurized tanks. These can be cumbersome, but nature...
Leaders and bullies! When do we start to distinguish between a power based on fear and coercion and a power based on mutual respect? It seems that infants...
The claustrum is a mysterious brain structure with vast connections, whose anatomy has limited investigation. We found a new approach for studying claustral...
Coral reefs are in a steady decline worldwide due to a range of anthropogenic (man-made) stressors. For this study, we focused on the effect of the two main...
Would you puke to save your group? The dramatic group defence of the common pine sawfly (Diprion pini) larvae can help us understand why individuals do not...
