Production of value-added chemicals in living cells holds promise to reduce the need for oil and divert to more sustainable production methods. The list of chemicals that can be produced through ...

Almost all organisms replicate by growing and then shedding offspring. Some molecules also replicate, but by moving rather than growing: They find and combine building blocks into self-copies. Here we ...

The structure of life emerged from randomness. This is attributed to selection by molecular Darwinian evolution. This study found that random templated ligation led to the simultaneous elongation and ...

Individuals may respond to ostracism by either behaving prosocially or antisocially. A recent paper provides evidence for a third response: solitude seeking, suggesting that ostracized individuals may ...

As the ongoing outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo illustrates, Ebola virus disease continues to pose a significant risk to humankind and this necessitates the continued development of ...

Understanding the function of stochasticity in biological systems has been a long-standing challenge 1,2,3. Two main principles have been recognized. First, stochastic algorithms allow simpler genetic ...

Inference and conclusions drawn from model fitting analyses are commonly based on a single "best-fitting" model. If model selection and inference are carried out ...

Replicability is a subtle and nuanced topic, especially when discussed broadly across scientific and engineering research. An attempt by a second researcher to replicate a previous study is an effort ...
