Scientists discovered that extreme heat can disrupt tiny structures called cilia that help corals transport oxygen and remove waste. When these structures fail, corals can suffer oxygen shortages, increasing the risk of tissue damage and death during marine heatwaves.

An enzyme recruited to stress granules that form during heat stress in Arabidopsis plants helps boost tolerance to both sudden and gradual temperature rises.

Global tracking data provides new insights into how marine creatures use ocean spaces and highlights the need for additional measures to achieve conservation targets.

Red Sea corals accumulate pharmaceuticals, pesticides, and other human-derived contaminants across reefs along the central Red Sea coast.

Lactate acts as both fuel and a signaling molecule in the brain, revealing a potential pathway for treating neurological disease.

Retina-inspired optoelectronic synapse can perform image processing and optical logic tasks.

Combining approaches to better discover and cultivate microbial taxa could generate novel microbes for industrial and agricultural applications.

A unique embryo-like cellular model offers a scalable platform for studying human embryogenesis, fertility, and developmental disorders, with promising initial results.

How a "Super Transformer" model could unify genomics, imaging and cellular data — and help biologists see the whole.
