Plants begin responding to spaceflight almost immediately after leaving Earth, according to a new University of Florida study ...

Adopting certain eating and lifestyle changes can have a significant impact on our biological age. A stunning experiment delving into how diet and daily habits can impact, and even reduce, age is ...

Cornell University researchers have created a new version of a microbe to compete economically with E. coli—a bacteria commonly used as a research tool due to its ability to synthesize proteins—to ...

Much of what we know about plant circadian rhythms is the result of laboratory experiments where inputs such as light and temperature can be tightly controlled. Less is known about how these ...

Researchers have created a new version of a microbe to compete economically with E. coli -- a bacteria commonly used as a research tool due to its ability to synthesize proteins -- to conduct low-cost ...

Researchers in Sweden have developed an AI scientist that can generate hypotheses, design experiments, direct lab automation and analyse biological results.

A SpaceX Dragon spacecraft docked with the International Space Station (ISS) on October 15, 2026, carrying more than 6,300 ...

Biological experiments are generating increasingly large and complex sets of data. This has made it difficult to reproduce experiments at other research laboratories in order to confirm - or refute - ...

Leveraging one of the world’s oldest biological experiments – which began in 1929 – researchers have uncovered how a major crop, barley, was shaped by both agricultural pressures and its changing ...

NASA's Viking landers reached Mars in 1976, and each lander carried a biology laboratory that was designed to test Martian soil for evidence that microorganisms might be present. The biology package ...
