Researchers found that the H-fibroin gene in caddisflies undergoes rapid evolutionary changes without losing its underwater adhesive capabilities. This discovery offers a chemical model for developing synthetic glues for medical and industrial applications.

New research suggests that Paleo success depends on metabolic flexibility and nutrient timing rather than strict food lists. Scientists have identified the MTCH2 protein as a key regulator in how cells manage energy and store fat.

New research reveals that Western toads separated by the Canadian Rockies represent distinct evolutionary lineages, prompting a re-evaluation of conservation needs.
