Forests protect against avalanches, but not every forest is equally effective. Thanks to almost 50 years of observations at the Stillberg afforestation site, SLF researchers have now gained insight ...

Engineered nanozymes and explainable machine learning enable sensitive bacterial detection across complex conditions. The system uses three distinct signals and delivers transparent, verifiable ...

An updated evolutionary model shows that living systems evolve in a split-and-hit-the-gas dynamic, where new lineages appear in sudden bursts rather than during a long marathon of gradual changes.

Key PointsNew antibiotics are needed to combat drug-resistant bacteria; artificial intelligence (AI) helps accelerate the ...

Have you ever wondered how those detailed three-dimensional city models, precise down to every window and tree, are created .

In a slow, invisible process, leaves, wood and roots are gradually decomposed—not by wind or weather, but by millions and millions of tiny organisms.

Reforestation can contribute significantly to tackling climate change, but research found its global potential is only a fraction of what’s been claimed.

Recent breakthroughs in artificial intelligence have transformed protein structure biology from a data-limited discipline into a data-driven frontier of ...

The virtual think tank leverages LLMs to simulate diverse stakeholder and expert perspectives, enabling architects to explore trade-offs, challenge biases, and refine decisions. By prompting personas ...
