A recent study marks the first reported instance of generative AI designing synthetic molecules that can successfully control gene expression in healthy mammalian cells.
An international team of scientists led by the University of Bath studied evolutionary differences between mammal species and found that those with bigger brains and longer lifespans tend to invest more heavily in immune-related genes.
Researchers have discovered a new type of neuron that plays a fundamental role in recognition memory. It means how the brain registers the difference between new and familiar objects and forms long-term memories. These are named Ovoid Cells. They are found in the hippocampus of mice, humans
Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India], September 17: Situated in the heart of the fast-growing city of Ahmedabad, the Central Campus of Ahmedabad University is a thriving hub of biodiversity and sustainable innovation. Nestled within an urban environment, the campus stands as an oasis of greenery, hom
On the occasion of World Elephant Day, the Forest Department along with the local people celebrated the largest mammal on land at the Government Elephant Rescue and Rehabilitation Centre at Trichy M.R. Palayam on Monday.
In the newly declared Raimona National Park of Assam, officials from the Assam Forest Department, along with conservationists, have recorded the first photographic proof of the Mainland Serow, a vulnerable mammal species notified by the International Union for Conservation of Nature.
As part of one of the largest large mammal reintroduction programmes in the world, the Environment Agency - Abu Dhabi (EAD) released for the first time six Dama Gazelles into the Ouadi Rime - Ouadi Achim Wildlife Reserve (OROAWF) in Chad. One of the three most endangered gazelle species, thi
By harnessing artificial intelligence technology, researchers at Haifa University were able to conclusively demonstrate that dolphins alter their vocal behavior in response to ship noise, potentially disrupting vital communication channels and prompting behavioral adjustments to mitigate the
Researchers used human retinas grown in a petri dish to discover how an offshoot of vitamin A produces the specialised cells that allow us to see millions of colours, a talent that dogs, cats, and other mammals lack.
Whirligig beetles, the world's fastest-swimming insect, achieve astonishing speeds by using a tactic shared by fast marine animals and waterfowl, according to a study.
According to a study published in Current Biology, frequent trips to oil palm farms are significantly increasing mortality rates among baby southern pig-tailed macaques (Macaca nemestrina) in the wild.
For the first time, an international team of researchers has created a full-cell atlas of a whole mammalian brain.
This atlas serves as a map of the mouse brain, describing the kind, location, and chemical information of over 32 million cells as well as information on cell connectivity.
