The Journal of Evolutionary Biology (JEB) has a long history of publishing work on phenotypic plasticity. From classic theory exploring the evolution

The extraordinary lifespan variation in domestic dogs provides a natural experiment for testing how intrinsic rates of biological aging shape lifespan. Using 1640 methylomes from 894 dogs, we develope...

The haplochromine cichlid fishes of Lake Malawi form one of the most dramatic examples of recent rapid radiation in vertebrates. Here we describe nine new diploid telomere-to-telomere (T2T) genome seq...

Abstract. Neo-sex chromosomes have proven powerful for studying the early stages of sex chromosome evolution and differentiation, yet if these dynamic proc

Threats to Pollinator Abundance and Diversity, the first release in the Pollinators in Peril series, covers the latest research on insect...

Abstract. Sociality is a complex phenotype which has evolved multiple times across the tree of life, particularly in the insects. Insect sociality likely a

Agency body that funds sociology, linguistics, and archaeology studies in U.S. gave 90% fewer new grants this year

Preferred qualifications include research and teaching records that will complement one or more of the department’s strengths including: African History, Asian History, British History, Digital Humanities, Latin American History, U.S. History, and related fields.

The move, affecting about one-fifth of the National Science Foundation’s primary research budget, is the latest sign of how the White House is asserting more control over grants.

Scientists have found a human gene lurking in a virus that causes skin infections. It may be using our own DNA to infect us.

One of the most valuable ways to support pollinators and other invertebrates is to provide them with the shelter they need to survive the winter. Thankfully, all you need to do is do less yard work.

Georgia Tech prides itself on its technological resources, collaborations, high-quality student body, and its commitment to building an outstanding and diverse community of learning, discovery, and creation. We strongly encourage applicants whose values align with our institutional values, as outlined in our strategic plan. These values include academic excellence, diversity of thought and experience, inquiry and innovation, collaboration and community, and ethical behavior and stewardship. Georgia Tech has policies to promote a healthy work-life balance and is aware that attracting faculty may require meeting the needs of two careers.

The agency has lost its independence and nearly a third of its staff, as Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and associates have tightened control.

Centromeres in Arabidopsis thaliana evolve through frequent insertions and deletions of repeat units and increased rates of point mutations driven by homology-directed repair, a mutation spectrum that is sufficient to generate and maintain large homogenized tandem-repeat blocks.

A research team led by Dr Lukas Schrader from the Institute for Evolution and Biodiversity (IEB) shows that the evolution of ants received a boost thanks to the activity of “jumping genes” in their ge...
