Life Sciences These 545-million-year-old fossil trails just rewrote the story of evolution The Cambrian explosion was an extraordinary phenomenon in the evolution of life on the planet that led to the emergence of many animal phyla and the diversification of species. During this period, some 530 million years ago, most of the basic body plans of organisms that have survived to the present day emerged. However, this […] Written by Admin June 27, 2025June 27, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked

Life Sciences Can these endangered lizards beat the heat? Scientists test bold relocation plan Climate change and habitat loss are affecting animal populations around the world and reptiles such as South Australia’s own endangered pygmy bluetongue are susceptible to higher temperatures and declining long-term rainfall trends. Flinders University scientists are working on securing a sustainable future for the burrow-dwelling endemic skink (Tiliqua adelaidensis) by assessing their suitability to cooler […] Written by Admin June 26, 2025June 26, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Biology Dynamic interaction of spliceosomal snRNPs with coilin explains Cajal body characteristics The Cajal body (CB) is a conserved non-membrane nuclear structure where several steps of small nuclear RNP particle (snRNP) biogenesis take place. It has been proposed that CB formation follows a liquid–liquid phase separation model, but this hypothesis has never been rigorously tested. Here, we applied live-cell imaging to show that the key CB assembly […] Written by Admin June 26, 2025June 26, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Environmental Science The apocalypse of beauty 28 Years After will be the film of this summer. At times scary, funny and gloriously weird, it is a story about nature and our fears of it.

Life Sciences These frozen wolf cubs ate a woolly rhino—and changed what we know about dogs New analysis of the remains of two ‘puppies’ dating back more than 14,000 years ago has shown that they are most likely wolves, and not related to domestic dogs, as previously suggested. The genetic analysis also proved that the cubs were sisters at the age of around two months, and like modern day wolves had […] Written by Admin June 24, 2025June 24, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
