New genetic editing powers discovered in squid
Revealing yet another super-power in the skillful squid, scientists have discovered that squid massively edit their own genetic instructions not only within the nucleus...
Researchers demonstrate the missing link for a quantum internet
A quantum internet could be used to send unhackable messages, improve the accuracy of GPS, and enable cloud-based quantum computing. For more than twenty...
Time symmetry and the laws of physics
If three or more objects move around each other, history cannot be reversed. That is the conclusion of an international team of researchers based...
The growth of an organism rides on a pattern of waves
When an egg cell of almost any sexually reproducing species is fertilized, it sets off a series of waves that ripple across the egg's...
Christmas Island discovery redraws map of life
The world's animal distribution map will need to be redrawn and textbooks updated, after researchers discovered the existence of "Australian' species on Christmas Island.
