World's oldest known RNA extracted from woolly mammoth
The RNA sequences are understood to be the oldest ever recovered, coming from mammoth tissue preserved in the Siberian permafrost for nearly 40,000 years.
Saliva-based biosensor could improve heart failure detection
Scientists have created a biosensor that can rapidly detect the heart failure biomarker S100A7 in saliva, offering a non-invasive way to identify the disease.
Melanoma-causing mutation can lie dormant in healthy skin
Researchers found many examples of the mutation in normal skin, including skin next to a mole and a melanoma as well as in sun-exposed and sun-protected skin.
Antibiotic for drug-resistant bacteria found in plain sight
The antibiotic in question is an intermediate chemical in the natural process that produces the well-known antibiotic methylenomycin A.
The voice of reason: natural language interfaces to transform lab informatics
In everyday life, voice interaction with technology can save time and reduce friction. The same applies in scientific research.
