The TGF-ß cellular signaling network, essential to various functions in all metazoans and also involved in many severe human pathologies like autoimmune diseases and cancer, is more flexible than previously thought.
Genetically modified worms may make us rethink invertebrate evolution
How intensive agriculture turned a wild plant into a pervasive weed
An exceptionally well-preserved collection of fossils discovered in eastern Yunnan Province, China, has enabled scientists to solve a centuries-old riddle in the evolution of life on earth, revealing what the first animals to make skeletons looked like.
The type of virus used as a model to study the efficacy of non-neutralizing antibodies against the virus responsible for AIDS has a crucial role to play, according to a new study led by Andrés Finzi, Université de Montréal professor and researcher at the CHUM Research Centre.
There’s new hope for the future treatment of some leukodystrophies, neurodegenerative diseases in young children that progressively affect their quality of life, often leading to death before adulthood.

Your voice could help doctors diagnose everything from cancer to Alzheimer’s disease to depression.
Here’s another paper with a reaction that would have looked like magic to me back when I first learned organic synthesis. The Wendtland group at MIT details a way to change tertiary carbon stereochemistries, flipping them/scrambling them through the use of a photochemical decatungstate-catalyzed radical reaction.
Like many of the world’s best and worst ideas, MIT researchers’ plan to combat AI-generated deepfakes was hatched when one of their number watched their favorite not-news news show.
A small study of people with a rare disorder that prevents them from processing protein is an early attempt at creating “living” medicines.
For people living with HIV, sticking to a prescribed medication regimen is a critical part of staying healthy.
An interdisciplinary research team led by UCLA found that a drug already approved by the Food and Drug Administration for eye disease, verteporfin, stopped the replication of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19.
