A major evolutionary theory says most genetic changes don’t really matter, but new evidence suggests that’s not true. Researchers found that helpful mutations happen surprisingly often. The twist is ...
From morning glories spiraling up fence posts to grape vines corkscrewing through arbors, twisted growth is a problem-solving ...
Scientists identify a rare new genetic form of neonatal diabetes caused by TMEM167A mutations, affecting insulin production, ...
Only two men can tell us if Elon Musk and Trump are truly, as of December 2025, “friends.” But the formal definition I used ...
Influenza cases are down across the United States, but a new flu strain mutation identified in August is causing a spike in ...
Even as humpbacks rebound in number, their genomes reveal a loss of genetic diversity and a buildup of harmful mutations left ...
This study offers important insight into the pathogenic basis of intragenic frameshift deletions in the carboxy-terminal domain of MECP2, which account for some Rett syndrome cases, yet similar ...

A tiny mutation can derail brain growth for life, study finds
A single microscopic change in our DNA can permanently alter how the brain is built, locking in developmental problems that ...
During development of the digestive system, a complex network of nerves forms around it, creating a "second brain"—the enteric nervous system (ENS)—which controls the movement of food and waste ...
Flu seems to be sweeping the CSRA, with local residents calling in sick left and right as they report severe symptoms, even ...
Immune cells called B cells make antibodies that fight off invading bacteria, viruses and other foreign substances. During ...
