In tropical climates, lizards are everywhere. It can be a bit wild to see, and they come in all shapes and sizes. They seem a tad superfluous in such large varieties leaving one to wonder, what ...

Some colorful lizards and a mathematical formula from the finance sector have been used to build a new framework to model evolution. Developed by Dr. Simone Blomberg from The University of ...

A new study proposes that statistical noise, not biological differences, may explain why evolution seems faster over shorter time frames, challenging long-standing assumptions about evolutionary rates ...

The study blends math, statistics and biology to show that this long-held hyperbolic pattern is an anomaly because it doesn't account for the fact that all species on earth are defined as much by ...

For decades, researchers have observed that rates of evolution seem to accelerate over short time periods – say five million years versus fifty million years. This broad pattern has suggested that ...

Darwin noted how different finches from the Galapagos Island developed different kinds of beaks, based on the food that they specialized in eating. Later studies showed how rapid fluctuations in seed ...

The Natural History Museum’s collections are helping scientists to get a handle on how evolution works. The digitisation of thousands of bird specimens is being used to try and explain some of the ...

Department of Microbiology, College of Medicine, Kuwait University, Jabriya, Kuwait The distribution of STs with respect to different clinical specimens or hospitals was compared by using Fisher’s ...

This year—2021—has been a year of progress in overcoming the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic on human evolution research. With some research projects around the world back up and running, we wanted ...
