A new study suggests that the explosive deaths of the universe's earliest stars created surprising quantities of water that ...

In real life, mutants can arise when their DNA changes to give them an advantage over the rest of the population. A team from the University of Michigan has used simulations on the Pittsburgh ...

Researchers were able to recreate the running form of the famous hominin. Spoiler: she’s not winning any marathons.

Evolution has been fine-tuning life at the molecular level for billions of years. Proteins, the fundamental building blocks of life, have evolved through this process to perform various biological ...

Hence, researchers often simulate the brain as a network of coupled neural masses, each described by a mean-field model. These models capture the essential features of neuronal populations while ...

Research in the Department of Biological Sciences covers a broad range of biological disciplines across multiple hierarchical levels including molecular biology, microbiology, animal physiology, ...

Scientists have developed a simulation method incorporating quantum mechanics to model the electronic structure of nearly ...

Researchers seeking to understand evolutionary processes have a new tool at their disposal. The Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station has developed TraitTrainR, a software package designed to ...

Evolution is complex and difficult to study, but TraitTrainR, a new software package developed by the Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station, offers researchers a better way to simulate how ...

The Covid-19 pandemic has left an indelible mark on humanity, claiming millions of lives and reshaping societies worldwide.

One that should be easiest to solve involves modeling the behavior of some simple catalysts. The electrons of these catalysts ...

Many think dinosaurs first emerged on land well south of the equator that now forms part of Argentina and Zimbabwe, but they may have actually arisen in tougher conditions near the equator ...
