Strategies to trick, manipulate, and direct the evolution of tumors

New therapeutic approaches in oncology aim to manipulate or block cancer’s adaptation to treatment.

A study of the animals using blue light reveals what humans are not able to see with the naked eye.

The 1-billion-year-old impressions have features similar to modern algae and indicate that photosynthesizing plants evolved at least that long ago.

Researchers analyzed more than 800 species.

From regulating each other’s gene expression to encoding different parts of the same proteins, the two genome types in every eukaryotic cell are far from independent.

The Yale biologist says that organisms’ behavior, physiology, and morphology engage in a constant “evolutionary dance.”

Interactions between mitochondrial and nuclear genomes have further-reaching effects on physiological function, adaptation, and speciation than previously appreciated.

A new study finds mixtures of nucleotide types, rather than pure systems, are more likely to yield the building blocks of life.
