The G-baToN prototype transfers GFP between cells, illuminating cell-cell contacts.

Researchers say they have discovered a novel species of comb jelly using video footage, but they couldn’t recover a physical specimen. Is that enough?

With modern technologies unearthing novel bacterial and archaeal species by the dozens, hundreds, or even thousands, manually naming them all is no longer practical, scientists say.

Water bears can survive extreme temperatures, oxidative stress, UV radiation, and more, but as work in climate change biology shows, they’re not invulnerable to everything.

Recent research shows that the insect’s microbial community is central to protecting the hive from invaders—both big and small.

The African Ancestry Neuroscience Research Initiative plans to boost inclusion in genomic studies and support a more diverse generation of neuroscientists.

Images from a Cold War spy satellite help researchers piece together the effects of land-use decisions in Kazakhstan.

Using their silk threads as a catapult, members of a family of orb-weaving arachnids rocket themselves and their webs through the air to capture prey.

Early investigations of the microbial communities in and around sunken boats reveal that there are patterns to where bacteria settle.
