A tiny coffee pest may be building the perfect hideout for its own predators. Coffee berry borers tunnel deep into coffee fruit, where they feed and reproduce beyond the reach of many predators. But after tiny ants force the beetles out, some species appear to claim the abandoned chambers as nurseries for their young. Jonathan […]

Cells Join Forces To Survive Prolonged Mechanical Strain
When tissues are stretched for hours, their cells rebuild their internal support system. A cell’s nucleus is usually anchored inside a protective web of protein fibers. But when tissue remains stretched for hours, that arrangement can break apart. Researchers have discovered that epithelial cells respond to prolonged strain by rebuilding their internal skeleton across entire […]
