Behavioral analysis can provide a lot of information about the health status or motivations of a living being. A new technology makes it possible for a single deep learning model to detect animal ...

A study published in the journal Evolution on September 26, 2018, suggests that certain models used to explain the theory of evolution might be statistical ...

LaBonne is president of the Society for Developmental Biology and the Erastus Otis Haven professor of molecular biosciences at Northwestern University. Imagine a world without lifesaving medicines, ...

In recent months, the Food and Drug Administration and National Institutes of Health have announced new initiatives to reduce and replace animal testing in biomedical research. Central to these ...

Animal models are established, important tools for preclinical safety and efficacy testing. Companies are advancing more “humanized” models to better reflect human responses, while at the same time ...

Behavioral analysis can provide a lot of information about the health status or motivations of a living being. A new technology developed at EPFL makes it possible for a single deep learning model to ...

One of the biggest quests in biology is understanding how every cell in an animal's body carries an identical genome yet still gives rise to a kaleidoscope of different cell types and tissues. A ...

Evolution is a continuous, powerful force shaping the natural world around us. As environmental pressures intensify, future animal evolution is likely to produce fascinating and sometimes bizarre new ...

Embryonic germ layers are the fundamental organizing principle in animal development. They provide the structural basis from which tissues and organs arise. During early embryogenesis, cells divide to ...
