Scientists have made an important discovery in meiosis research. They have identified a new mechanism that plays an important role in meiosis. The Research Group headed by molecular biologist Andrea ...

Scientists are one step closer to unlocking the secrets of the 2,000-year-old Antikythera Mechanism, considered the world’s first computer, thanks to a new computer-generated reconstruction of the ...

Mexican scientists and teachers from the University of Sonora in northwestern Mexico have successfully recreated the Antikythera mechanism, the oldest mechanical computer in humanity. The replica, ...

New research shows that beetles have evolved sophisticated mechanisms to reproduce despite warmer temperatures. They have evolved mechanisms that allow their sperm and eggs to quickly cope with ...

Freshwater planarians, found around the world and commonly known as "flatworms," are famous for their regenerative prowess. Through a process called "fission," planarians can reproduce asexually by ...

China is planning to send monkeys to its newly completed Tiangong space station in order to study how they grow and reproduce in a zero-gravity environment, it was reported. The research would be ...
