Long before plants and algae, cyanobacteria were already performing photosynthesis—filling Earth’s skies with oxygen and setting the stage for life as we know it. The ultra-prevalent bacteria are critical to the global carbon cycle, responsible […]
A new scientific review tackles an age-old question: could dogs ever learn to talk? While barking out full sentences might sound like science fiction, researchers are taking a closer look at the biological and technological […]
Researchers at University of Tsukuba have developed DeMemSeg, an AI-powered analysis pipeline that addresses a long-standing challenge in microscopy: precisely segmenting and measuring individual cell membranes that overlap in two-dimensional (2D) projection images. This innovation […]

Researchers have developed a new class of nontoxic, biodegradable solid lubricants that can be used to facilitate seed dispersal using modern farming equipment, with the goal of replacing existing lubricants that pose human and environmental […]
The human body is made up mostly of water. If this water is removed, the body’s cells cannot survive, even when water is reintroduced. But some organisms can completely dry out yet return to life […]
