Fossils are invaluable archives of the past. They preserve details about living things from a few thousand to hundreds of millions of years ago. Studying fossils can help us understand the evolution of species over time, and glimpse snapshots of past environments and climates. Fossils can also reveal the diets or migration patterns of long-gone … Read more
Anselamimab, which AstraZeneca acquired via Caelum Biosciences, missed its primary goal in two late-stage trials, but appeared to have some benefit in a subgroup of patients.
In the rapidly evolving field of plant molecular biology, a groundbreaking study by Caballero-Carretero and Medina published in Nature Plants (2025) unveils a mobile transcription factor that orchestrates systemic responses to nitrogen deficiency across the plant. This discovery not only deepens our fundamental understanding of nutrient signaling in plants but also opens transformative avenues for … Read more
