Faculty leaders describe their efforts to develop potentially game-changing tools.

Sea turtles of Aldabra were almost hunted to extinction. But thanks to years of protection the much-loved animals are now thriving again - and so is the iconic giant tortoise.

These coordinated movements of a flock of starlings follow no plan or leader. Scientists used to think the animals must communicate via ESP to create these fast-moving blobs.

The Russian government used disinformation to fabricate a justification for invading Ukraine. A new campaign focused on biowarfare claims threatens to escalate the conflict.

Scientists propose a new mechanism by which oxygen may have first built up in the atmosphere

Researchers create a mathematical framework to examine the genome and detect signatures of natural selection, deciphering the evolutionary past and future of non-coding DNA.

Birds will shriek and dive at each other over food, territory or mates, but only a small number of species sport actual weapons. The reason: Flying matters more for their survival than fighting.

Tracing connections between neuron populations could help researchers map brain circuits that underlie behavior and perception.

New research sheds light on why predators don’t evolve to become so aggressive that they eat all their prey – and then go extinct themselves.
