Natural selection shapes genomes across great ape species
5+ day, 2+ hour ago (713+ words) In the most comprehensive survey of natural selection across our closest living relatives to date, an international team of researchers has mapped the genomic landscapes of adaptation in six great ape lineages, revealing new candidate genes tied to senses, immunity,…...
Scientists characterize genetic variants across the human intrinsically
2+ week, 4+ day ago (656+ words) Variant effect prediction has entered a new phase, but one of biology’s largest blind spots remains stubbornly difficult to resolve. Computational tools have become increasingly effective at estimating the consequences of missense variants in folded protein domains, where amino-acid positions…...
Brain activity shifts when different generations create together
3+ week, 2+ day ago (673+ words) Loneliness is often described as an absence of social contact, but a new study suggests that the brain may reveal something more precise: how two people begin to coordinate with one another as a relationship develops. When older and younger…...

Why Personality Links Fade with Age: Cricket Study Reveals Genetics and
15+ hour, 47+ min ago (695+ words) For nearly two decades, behavioural ecologists have been fascinated by the fact that animals are not simply bundles of independent traits. A bold individual tends to be an aggressive one; a curious animal often takes more risks. These consistent suites…...
Genome-wide study across ancestries reveals genetic roots of Hashimoto’s
1+ week, 22+ hour ago (916+ words) In the largest genetic investigation of its kind to date, an international team of researchers has mapped the genetic architecture of Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, the most common autoimmune disease in the world, through multi-ancestry genome-wide association analyses spanning tens of thousands…...

Mole-Rat Genes Evolving Faster Than Expected Reveal Secrets of Subterranean
11+ hour, 12+ min ago (568+ words) Beneath the sun-baked soils of eastern and southern Africa, a family of rodents has quietly rewritten the rules of mammalian life. Naked mole-rats resist cancer, tolerate near-anoxic conditions and barely age. Damaraland mole-rats dig elaborate tunnel networks and live in…...
