Kathryn Paige Harden’s book tries to demonstrate how genetics can ameliorate societal ills. She falls well, well short The last decade has seen genetics and evolution grapple with its history; one ...
When the Bering Sea freezes over, it sings. As wind and current shift, the ice crackles and moans, piping through the polar night. Among these moving giants rises St. Lawrence Island. Closer to Russia ...
I am a PhD candidate studying the population genetics of domesticated rice at NYU. Following domestication by about 8,000 years ago in southern China, rice transformed societies across Asia as it ...
There are a few more complexities that could change the color a star appears to us. For example, clouds on brown dwarfs may change how their atmosphere absorbs light, and that’s something researchers ...
Bacteria survive and thrive even in the harshest environments. Scientists have characterized species thriving in Antarctica, and even in deep-sea oil wells. Now, a study published in PNAS in August ...
During Thomas's three-decade career at NASA, she connected scientists with the data they need to understand our planet Valerie Thomas retired from NASA in 1995 after three decades of work, and she ...
The newly identified psychrotolerant yeast, Rhodotorula frigidialcoholis, was isolated from 150,000-year-old ice cemented permafrost in the McMurdo Dry Valleys of Antarctica. The researchers found it ...

This topic definitely feels like “looking behind the curtain” of these “miracles.” Absolutely, this problem of “misinformation mills” challenging better science is a huge problem across several fields ...
Between 15,000 and 25,000 years ago, humans started hanging out with a particularly friendly breed of wolves: dogs. Scientists assume that these ancient pooches were first drawn to our settlements by ...
