Physicists have shown how fluid flows influence the formation of complex patterns. The formation of patterns is a universal phenomenon that underlies fundamental processes in biology. An example are ...

How are simple embryonic structures able to produce the varied and complex manifestations of living nature" Scientists in Freiburg have now identified proteins which regulate the pattern of hair ...

In our newly published research in Science Advances, my student Ben Alessio and I propose a potential mechanism explaining how these distinctive patterns form—that could potentially be applied to ...

The same biological signals that help predict lifespan in humans also appear in dogs, according to new research from the Dog Aging Project — a finding that could help scientists better understand ...

Life moves in mysterious ways—and perhaps especially so for organisms that undergo dramatic shifts in levels of self-organization, such as Myxococcus xanthus. A custom-built artificial intelligence ...

Epigenetic aging clocks use DNA methylation patterns to measure biological age and predict health risks across human tissues.
