Science is what we do when we want to understand how things in the universe work. It is a process of discovering facts and developing theories about how things work and interact with each other. Science is not just limited to the physical world, but also includes the study of human behavior and social interactions. We use scientific methods to study everything from the behavior of animals to the effects of various drugs on people. By using the scientific method, we are constantly learning new things about the world around us. Science is important because it allows us to understand our surroundings and make informed decisions about our lives. It helps us to find solutions to problems and make predictions about future events. Without science, we would be living in complete darkness, unaware of the incredible complexities of the universe around us.
Bridging Dental Education and Technology | Research Communities by Springer Nature
Can mobile apps revolutionize dental education? Our study developed and tested a smartphone-based app for teaching oral health needs assessment. While the app didn’t outperform traditional methods, students' enthusiasm for mobile learning highlights opportunities for future innovation.
Compare Two Numbers | Examples for Comparison of Numbers | Video
How to compare two numbers? Comparing two numbers means finding which number is smaller and which number is greater. It is represented by symbol (>) or (<). When you compare two numbers and they are same then the numbers are equal and symbolized as (=).
Super Graphene-Skinned Materials | Research Communities by Springer Nature
“Super graphene-skinned materials” is an innovative strategy toward graphene practical applications, which will inspire more approaches to achieve the translation of graphene's exceptional properties from atomic-scale structures to macroscopic bulk materials.
The Dead of Winter | Dynamic Ecology
I link to this every year. Click the link below to read a lovely piece by Kieran Healy, from which the quoted passage is drawn. It's about Newgrange, an Irish megalithic tomb, but also about so much more. A society—a civilization, if you like—is a hard thing to hold together. If you live in an…
The genomic journey of modern and archaic humans may be older than we thought
Research conducted at the Department of Biology, University of Padova, has identified critical genomic milestones in the evolution of Homo sapiens, including key chromosomal rearrangements and specific gene variants that contributed to the development of current modern human traits.
New study highlights the correlation between live corals and fishing yields | ScienceDaily
A new study examines the correlation between fish yield and live coral habitats. Researchers analyzed the yields of nine fisheries dependent on Australia's Great Barrier Reef from 2016 to 2020. Results show that substantial losses could occur if the restoration of coral reefs is not prioritized.
Simulations of hominin Lucy help show how long distance running evolved in modern humans
A team of natural scientists, musculoskeletal specialists, and evolutionary biologists affiliated with several institutions in the U.K., working with a colleague from the Netherlands, has found via simulations, that the famous early hominin Lucy, could run upright, but not nearly as quickly as modern humans.
Frederick Lubbe: survivability of herbs in the winter – Functional Ecologists
In this blog post Frederick Lubbe, postdoc at Institute of Botany of the Czech Academy of Sciences, presents his work ‘New opportunities for grassland species in warming temperate winters’. He talks about the importance of winter for plants, shows how plants cope with winter conditions and shares how he enjoys working in unusual ecological topics. …
This Friday linkfest is structured to improve rather than degrade learning | Dynamic Ecology
This week: AI teaching assistant, the limits of data, The Sound of Music nominalism, and more. C. Thi Nguyen on the limits of data. There are many pieces on this topic, but this is a particularly good example of the type. Would probably be good reading material for undergrads in quantitative courses. Having said that,…
Sharing Primate Phenotypes | Research Communities by Springer Nature
My colleagues and I present the most extensive primate phenotypic dataset to date, comprising >6,000 3D scans of ~400 specimens digitized from various natural collections. The data are freely available through MorphoSource, empowering the future of primate phenomics. This is the project's story.
Sea snakes regain advanced color vision, recovering a complex trait once lost to evolutionary time
Nine species of sea snakes have now been identified as having regained the genetic requirements for advanced color vision, demonstrating that once a complex trait has been lost to evolutionary time, it may be regained in some way.
Heterogeneous host populations drive evolution of more virulent pathogens, modeling study shows
The evolution of pathogens has received attention in a wide range of scientific fields, such as epidemiology, demography, and evolutionary ecology. Understanding pathogen evolution is particularly urgent for rapidly evolving pathogens, such as SARS-CoV-2, which has spread globally since 2019.
Best of 2024 – Square Meter Prairie Photos | The Prairie Ecologist
As 2024 winds down, there's a lot to look back on. Photographically, there's no question what my strongest memories are tied to. Starting in late April, I made 112 trips (and counting) to a 1x1 meter plot of prairie along Lincoln Creek on the eastern edge of Aurora, Nebraska. There, I found an incredible bounty…
