Search the life sciences
Results tuned to biology
4Biology is a focused search engine built for biology students, researchers, educators, and lab managers. We combine multiple indexes, curated sources, and AI tools to surface publications, protocols, datasets, suppliers, and learning resources that matter to life scientists. Use the site to save time, find specialized resources, and get context-specific search results not optimized for general web traffic. Part of the 4SEARCH network of topic specific search engines.

Hairy Bittercress Conquers Japan’s Temperature Gradient With Four Genetic Clusters
3+ hour, 33+ min ago (88+ words) A genomic study of the invasive plant Cardamine hirsuta in eastern Japan reveals four genetic clusters with distinct climatic associations, including one broadly tolerant group and admixed individuals concentrated where cluster ranges overlap. Subject of Research: Genetic structure and climatic…...
Fossil Time Travelers? Scientists Challenge Claim That Oligocene Foraminifera Survived 10 Million Years
19+ hour, 14+ min ago (69+ words) A team of micropaleontologists argues that Oligocene fossils found in Miocene rocks in southern Spain were reworked by ancient currents rather than surviving far beyond their known extinction. Subject of Research: Debate over reworking versus range extension of Oligocene larger…...
Antibody Survey Reveals Widespread Flavi- and Paramyxoviruses Circulating in African Fruit Bats
21+ hour, 8+ min ago (463+ words) A large antibody-based survey across seven African countries finds high seroprevalence of flavi- and paramyxoviruses in fruit bats, linking large colony size to sustained viral circulation....
Rare Childhood Bleeding Disorder Traced to Two New ADAMTS13 Gene Variants
21+ hour, 7+ min ago (728+ words) A Chinese pediatric case series has identified two previously unreported ADAMTS13 gene variants in children with hereditary thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, underscoring the need for enzyme testing and genetic analysis when recurrent thrombocytopenia resists standard therapy....
