UK Food Standards Agency accepts Gourmey’s application for cultivated Foie Gras

The acceptance by the UK marks a new phase in what is emerging as a closely observed regulatory race. With similar food safety requirements across the EU, the US, Singapore, Switzerland and the UK, the process will provide insights into which regulatory frameworks are most efficient in assessing and approving novel food technologies. Earlier this […]

What happens when bees can’t buzz right? Nature starts falling apart

What happens when bees can’t buzz right? Nature starts falling apart

Ongoing research into the effect of environmental change on the buzzing of bees reveals that high temperatures and exposure to heavy metals reduces the frequency (and audible pitch) of non-flight wing vibrations, which could have consequences on the effectiveness of bee communication and their role as pollinators. “People have been long interested in how insect […]

Whispers in the womb: How cells “hear” to shape the human body

Like all complex organisms, every human originates from a single cell that multiplies through countless cell divisions. Thousands of cells coordinate, move and exert mechanical forces on each other as an embryo takes shape. Researchers at the Göttingen Campus Institute for Dynamics of Biological Networks (CIDBN), the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organisation, and […]

Key Amino Acid Changes Attenuate Yellow Fever Vaccine

In a groundbreaking study published in Nature Microbiology, researchers have uncovered the molecular underpinnings that enable the yellow fever 17D vaccine strain to be both highly effective and unusually safe. Through meticulous molecular analyses, Zhang, Chavez, Winkler, and their colleagues have pinpointed specific amino acid substitutions in just two viral proteins that are responsible for […]
