Honey bees have long been the model species for studying insect vision. However, new research shows that several smaller bee species might actually have sharper eyesight.
Researchers at UC San Diego have demonstrated that one of biology’s most essential enzymes can accurately read and transcribe an expanded genetic alphabet containing eight DNA letters instead of the four used by all known life.

The federal government just unveiled an aggressive plan to help conserve the mighty Colorado. Will it work? And if not, what will? Water policy veteran Doug Kenney offers insight.
As it tries to defend itself from stroke, the brain can paradoxically trigger the formation of tiny new clots in minor blood vessels, damaging tissue even after the original culprit has been removed, new research shows. The findings help explain why nearly half of treated stroke patients don’t recover — and identify potential new treatments.

From incorporating natural resources into GDP to building sustainable cities to strengthening drivers of carbon removal, Yale School of the Environment faculty and alumni will be discussing how long-term climate goals can translate into scalable, deployable solutions at Yale @ Climate Week NYC .
If you’ve ever watched a baby try to grab a toy, you know how awkward those first movements can be. Scientists at the University of Ottawa have taken a big step in identifying the neural changes behind motor control by observing zebrafish go from clumsy swimmers to graceful gliders.

Yale School of Medicine (YSM) has been awarded a grant of nearly $25 million by the Aligning Research to Impact Autism (ARIA) initiative. The award, which is part of ARIA’s Human Developmental Neurobiology Research Hub , focuses on building foundational maps and models of the developing human brain and clarifying how and when autism diverges from typical development.
When Jadesola Crownson graduated with a degree in biochemistry and plans for medical school, she already knew how to think like a scientist. But she wanted to grapple with questions science alone could not answer.
