Researchers propose ‘ecologically honest’ approach to modelling behaviour
January 20, 2022
When studying the behaviour of species, study design is often based on human norms. But, when modelling the behaviour of non-human species, these biases can skew results. Now, one research...
How to train your AI microscope
January 20, 2022
Artificial Intelligence will define the future of microscopy. With increased demand for more powerful image analysis across many highly regulated sectors, Luciano Lucas discusses the need to train AI models...

Fossil research affected by significant colonial bias, study finds
January 6, 2022
Recent research highlights just some of the historical, social and economic factors which have influenced the field of palaeontology and significantly skewed accessible fossil records. The first step towards conducting...
New microscope uses photonics to gain insights into ‘superbugs’
November 25, 2021
Scientists are building a new super-resolution microscope that uses laser light to study the inner workings and behaviours of superbugs to gain new insights into how they cause disease. The...

Shape-shifting worm blob model could inspire future robot swarms
October 26, 2021
Lumbriculus variegatus blackworms can aggregate into ‘blobs’ capable of collective movement. Researchers observed blackworms to model the behaviour of individual worms, as well as the formation and movement of blobs....
Scientists uncover a gene involved in sexual conflict in fruit flies
October 22, 2021
Sexual conflict in fruit flies is governed by specifically wired neurons in the brain which have been pinpointed by scientists at the University of Birmingham, UK. Research offers a way...
Trans-disciplinary approaches reveal important disease transmission dynamics
October 4, 2021
New research reveals the complex multi-host-species and multi-parasite-species disease transmission dynamics, paving the way for a more comprehensive understanding of how certain zoonotic diseases, such as schistosomiasis, can be controlled...
