Using this computational system, researchers can identify viral protein sequences that could make better vaccine targets.
A new study has determined how two distinct orders of the animal kingdom, the extinct Tasmanian tiger and the gray wolf, developed nearly identical skull shapes, a unique example of convergent evolution, the independent development of similar features in non-related animals or plants.
An international group of biomedical researchers has developed a method of mining genetic information from multiple electronic medical records without compromising patient privacy.

Spanish researchers may have found the means for combatting a “brain-eating” amoeba that led to increased deaths in the U.S. and around the world in recent years.
Breast milk has long been accepted as a key way mothers bolster the immunities of infants to known diseases, but researchers at the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB) recently set out to determine whether that benefit exists for the novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19 as well, as well as whether there is any risk of transmitting the infection through breast milk.
Geoscientists from Rice University and the University of Texas (UT) at Austin recently published an open-access study looking at the information about volcanic eruptions that can be derived from the study of nanoparticles.
Researchers have found that fishing behavior of Nebraska anglers may be less unpredictable than originally thought, with seven fishing spots in the state seeing little variation from spring to fall.
Discovery of the first fully preserved three-dimensional fossils of tiny animals 547 million years old is helping scientists understand the evolutionary link between the Ediacaran Period and the beginning of the Cambrian, 541 million years ago.
