Australia's lizards and snakes are facing a far more precarious future than previously understood, with a new review led by Monash University researchers revealing that around 127 species, or just over 13% of Australia's terrestrial lizards and snakes, are now likely to be threat

An international study led by researchers at the George Washington University indicates clear global evidence that permafrost is thawing across much of the planet. Using more than two decades of field observations from 156 monitoring sites across the Arctic, Antarctic and high-mo

Researchers have discovered a thermal asymmetry deep beneath the surface across Mars' southern hemisphere. Based on gravitational measurements that provide clues to the Red Planet's interior structure, Mars' southern interior is around 200 to 400 degrees Celsius warmer than the p

Spreading finely crushed basalt across farmland has been promoted as a relatively simple way to remove large quantities of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. But a new study led by Cornell researchers suggests the real-world potential of this method, known as enhanced weathering

Scientists have identified an unexpected source of genetic variation in human sperm that occurs earlier in sperm development than previously thought. Published in Nature, researchers at the Wellcome Sanger Institute, the University of Cambridge and their collaborators found that

A new study led by researchers at Johns Hopkins Medicine found that a simple urine test performed on deceased kidney donors could help doctors make better transplant decisions, giving more people access to successful kidney transplants while reducing the number of deceased donor

Messing with the genetic code might have gotten a bit easier to do.

Researchers have developed a "scaffold" that mimics natural tissue and could lead to more durable rotator cuff repairs, including for large injuries and cases involving bone and tissue degeneration that are often the most difficult to fix. Devised by a team at the Perelman School

University of Alberta researchers have discovered a novel drug that unlocks the secret of snail hibernation, allowing them to safely put non-hibernating animal organs into a deep metabolic sleep. The study, published in Nature Communications, is led by Dr. Evangelos Michelakis, p

A new study from the University of Oulu suggests that gut bacteria may send different biological signals in Parkinson's disease. The findings add to growing evidence that changes in the gut could be linked to Parkinson's disease and may eventually help researchers identify new un

National Eye Institute researchers have created the largest known database providing a reference for the size of individual cone photoreceptors, the cells in the retina responsible for color vision, across the lifespan. This resource will help clinicians distinguish early disease

Eating may look effortless, but behind every bite, the brain runs a split-second relay of coordinated movement. In a recent study, researchers zoomed into the tiny world of fruit flies, or Drosophila, to uncover how their motor neurons orchestrate the rapid sequence of muscle mov
