A surprising discovery inside desert mosses could reshape scientists’ understanding of plant evolution. In some of the driest places on Earth, the ground itself can be alive. What looks like a thin, dark crust on desert soil may actually be a miniature ecosystem, packed with mosses, fungi, bacteria, algae, and tiny animals. These biological soil […]

Scientists Just Repeated a Nobel Prize-Winning Experiment in a Creature Older Than Jellyfish
A century after one of developmental biology’s most influential experiments, researchers have revisited the concept of the embryonic “organizer” in one of the oldest animal lineages alive today. A tiny cluster of cells in an embryo can act like a construction manager for an entire body. It helps determine which end becomes the head, which […]
Scientists Discover the “Achilles’ Heel” of Two of the World’s Deadliest Diarrhea Bacteria
Scientists have uncovered a shared target used by multiple diarrhea-causing bacteria to invade the gut. Despite decades of research, scientists still do not have vaccines against two of the world’s most common causes of severe bacterial diarrhea: enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC) and Shigella. Together, these pathogens infect hundreds of millions of people each year and […]
