Humans don’t always act in their own best interests.

Abstract Accurate taxonomic classification in metagenomics is often compromised by low-complexity sequences, which lead to chance matches that in turn cause sequences to be misclassified. Here we pres...

Recursive splicing (RS) is a process in which an intron is removed from a nascent RNA molecule in two or more splicing events rather than one. We introduce a novel approach for detecting recursive spl...

Nature Methods - EviAnn surpasses existing genome annotation methods by leveraging gene expression and protein sequence homology evidence to achieve higher accuracy and efficiency.

Although AlphaFold2 and its competitors have demonstrated remarkable abilities to predict protein structure, more work is needed to explore the limitations of these methods. Here we investigated the r...

The new rules proposed by Trump's henchman Russell Vought would destroy US science

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), a peer reviewed journal of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) - an authoritative source of high-impact, original research that broadly spans...

Not all of it, but some scientists are too eager to believe their own hype

Scientists have sequenced the bristlecone pine genome, which could help unlock the secrets of this tree's exceptionally long life.

AI scientists' trust in their own inventions is naïve

Artificial intelligence is helping researchers advance their careers and drill deeper into specific questions, but it is not necessarily benefiting science on the whole.

ICE plans to spend $38.3 billion converting warehouses into detention centers, according to planning documents, more than the annual budgets of 22 states.

The biggest own goal in modern history

EMBL and its community are deeply saddened by the death of Peer Bork, the organisation’s Interim Director General.

Is it real or is it nonsense?

President Donald Trump's envoys were to meet Thursday with Ukrainian negotiators for the third time in two weeks to press his plan to end the war as his administration eased economic pressure on Russi...
