We often see the results of evolution, but not the process directly. Now, scientists have been treated to front row seats of evolution unfolding in real time, as two similar lizard species encounter ...

Biologists are closing in on a puzzle that seems to turn classic evolutionary logic inside out, yet may be so common that it deserves to be called a new rule of life. Instead of always purging harmful ...

An international team of researchers has developed a new theoretical framework that bridges physics and biology to provide a unified approach for understanding how complexity and evolution emerge in ...

Fossil records and archaeological findings suggest a correlation between the two, but they do not yet provide definitive proof that the evolution of the brain and hands was directly linked in a ...

Nematodes represent one of the most diverse and abundant animal groups on Earth, serving as both free‐living organisms and parasites across a wide range of ecosystems. Their biology is characterised ...

Assembly theory bridges the gap between physics and biology in explaining how complex objects are identifiable as products of evolution and how reusability of parts allows novelty and identical ...
