Before life emerged on earth, either a primitive kind of metabolism or an RNA-like duplicating machinery must have set the stage – so experts believe. But what preceded these pre-life steps?
A pair of UCSF scientists has developed a model explaining how simple chemical and physical processes may have laid the foundation for life. Like [...]
New evidence may help explain the brute strength of the tyrannosaurid, says a University of Alberta researcher whose research findings demonstrate how a fused nasal bone turned the animal into a “zoological superweapon.”
“Fused, arch-like nasal bones are a unique feature of tyrannosaurids,” said Dr. Eric Snively, a post doctoral research fellow at the U [...]
A drug used to treat cancer has been shown to enhance long-term memory and strengthen neural connections in the brain, according to a new study by UC Irvine scientists.
In the study with mice, scientists found that histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors – currently used in clinical trials to attack cancerous tumors – relaxes the protein structure [...]
The National Science Foundation (NSF) should work within the environmental framework of the international Antarctic Treaty system to develop a global scientific consensus on minimally disruptive ways to investigate one of the “last unexplored places on Earth”–a unique system of lakes, and the aquatic systems that may connect them, buried thousands of meters under the [...]
