The evolution processes of complex systems carry key information in the systems’ functional properties. Applying machine learning algorithms, we demonstrate that the historical formation process of ...

New research by EMBL scientists shows how different modes of cell division used by animals and fungi might have evolved to support diverse life cycles. Cell division is one of the most fundamental ...

Synthetic biology aims to apply engineering principles and the design process to create biological systems with new and desired functionalities 1. While it is seen by many as a young field that ...

The process of evolution usually takes thousands, millions or even billions of years. But researchers have found a way to condense it into a matter of minutes using a method called 'directed evolution ...

A new study led by Marco Fumasoni, principal investigator at Fundação GIMM, shows that evolution can substantially reduce ...

The influenza (flu) virus is constantly undergoing a process of evolution and adaptation through acquiring new mutations. Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have added a new layer of ...

Why does natural selection appear to happen slowly on long timescales and quickly on short ones? A multigenerational study of four lizard species addresses biology’s “paradox of stasis.” James Stroud ...

In 1859, Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution was postulated in “On the Origin of Species.” In this theory, Darwin suggested that evolution occurred gradually, although there were no complete fossils.

Imagine a photograph of your great-grandparents, grandparents and parents side by side. You’d see a resemblance, but each generation would look distinct from its predecessors. This is the process of ...

Process mining is a data science and process management technique that's evolving with digital transformation business projects. Learn how process mining is impacting modern enterprises and business ...
