To address claims of human exceptionalism, we determine where humans fit within the greater mammalian distribution of reproductive inequality.
CHROMOSOMES The most common cause of spontaneous abortions is chromosome defects, but they can be difficult to detect. Researchers from the University of Copenhagen have developed a new method that can make us wiser about how chromosome defects and disease-associated chromosome changes look and how to aid diagnosis.
Researchers in ecology and evolutionary biology are increasingly dependent on computational code to conduct research.
Researchers find three immunotherapy drugs given together can eliminate pancreatic tumors in mice.
Little is known about brain aging or dementia in nonindustrialized environments that are similar to how humans lived throughout evolutionary history.
Social network analysis provides an important framework for studying the causes, consequences, and structure of social ties.
Probabilistic programming language allows for fast, error-free answers to hard AI problems, including fairness.
Ecologists routinely use statistical models to detect and explain interactions among ecological drivers, with a goal to evaluate whether an effect of interest changes in sign or magnitude in different contexts.
MIT researchers employ machine learning to find powerful peptides that could improve a gene therapy drug for Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
Chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) possess a relatively generalized molar morphology allowing them to access a wide range of foods.
REPRODUCTION Men with obesity can double their sperm count if they lose weight and maintain the weight loss. This is the conclusion in a new study by researchers from the University of Copenhagen and Hvidovre Hospital.
The selection pressures that drove dramatic encephalisation processes through the mammal lineage remain elusive, as does knowledge of brain structure reorganisation through this process.
Researchers observe a “warming bias” over the past 66 million years that may return if ice sheets disappear.
Climate change threatens to destroy invaluable heritage sites and traditions in marginalised countries – but empowering local people is key to adaptation, according to a new study.
Important heritage sites on the African coast classed as having “outstanding and universal value” are threatened by flooding and erosion because of the climate emergency, a new study warns.
NEW METHOD How do some people develop resistance to cancer treatment? Now, research from University of Copenhagen shows that a new method called 'Deep Visual Proteomics' may be able to help doctors get closer to an answer and expose cancer tumor’s vulnerabilities.
Study shows a need to identify domestic and international pollution sources in policy design.
Patients made to wait longer than five hours at A&E face an increased risk of death within 30 days, a new study shows.
The Breakthrough Agenda agreed at COP26 could help trigger positive tipping points to tackle the climate crisis, researchers say.
Gabon's network of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) provides a blueprint that could be used in many other countries, experts say.
