A recent investigation led by voice scientist Christian T. Herbst from the University of Vienna and colleagues from Anglia Ruskin University provides new insights into the vocal capabilities of New World monkeys, the group of all original primates of the American continent: They can produce "voice breaks" similar to human yodeling, but support a much wider range of frequencies.
While pinned butterfly specimens on display are stunning on their own, a new study from the University of Georgia explored how museum specimens can be used to track the spread of disease.
Georgia Tech scientists are revealing how decades-long research programs have transformed our understanding of evolution, from laboratory petri dishes to tropical islands — along the way uncovering secrets that would remain hidden in shorter studies.
Botanists LĂşcia Lohmann (left) and Toby Pennington will have joint appointments with both Washington University in St. Louis and the Missouri Botanical Garden.
This study achieved CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing in grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella), China's most economically vital freshwater fish. Targeting the tyrb gene critical for pigmentation were performed. Mutations confirmed by sequencing caused a golden phenotype with melanophore reduction. Using multiple gRNAs enhanced mutation rates (88.9%) and triggered large DNA deletions.
Four MSU researchers named AAAS Fellows
UChicago researchers develop a new technology to create a spatial map of gene expression for an entire organism.
Around 98 per cent of lignin created as a forestry by-product from plants is discarded, but a new enzyme could be the key to extracting high-value molecules from this waste using a green chemistry approach.
Georgia Tech scientists uncovered how whole-genome duplication emerges and remains stable over thousands of generations of evolution in the lab.
New technology could prove effective in nuclear fuel recycling and other metal recovery processes.
Data centers are one of the fastest growing areas of America’s technology sector. These massive warehouses of servers make some of today’s most important technical achievements possible, such as the expanding use of artificial intelligence applications and cryptocurrency mining.
Hydropower is a reliable source of energy. However, the inconsistent nature of water flows and electricity demand often challenges hydropower operators and reduces revenue.
Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution among research groups that offer findings to support the protection of species
En las profundidades de la superficie terrestre, las formaciones rocosas pueden brillar en tonos brillantes de rosa, azul y verde bajo luz ultravioleta. Los cientĂficos utilizan estas caracterĂsticas fluorescentes para comprender cĂłmo se formaron las cuevas y cĂłmo se sostiene la vida en su interior. Presentarán sus resultados en el encuentro de primavera de 2025 de la ACS.
Deep below the Earth’s surface, rock formations can shine in brilliant hues of pink, blue and green under black light. Scientists are using these fluorescent features to understand how the caves formed and how life is supported within. They will present their results at ACS Spring 2025.
The Province of Mendoza has accepted the donation of 40,000 hectares of private land within the La Payunia Protected Natural Area, located in the department of MalargĂĽe.

New research published in Science is reshaping our understanding of one of nature’s most stunning yet destructive phenomena — massive locust swarms moving together.
A research team using EST-SSR molecular marker technology reveals vital information on the genetic diversity and structure of nine natural populations of Phoebe bournei, providing a scientific foundation for the conservation and sustainable use of its germplasm resources.
To celebrate the start of Earth Month, reporters are invited to cover a private VIP event for REEL WILD™️ NEW YORK at the Lotte New York Palace; and to cover REEL WILD™️ NEW YORK, a two day film festival in Manhattan.
Since the Industrial Revolution, human activity has led to a surge in environmental noise. The sounds of traffic, airplanes, construction and more clutter the outdoor soundscape, challenging animal
