After clinical death, some of your cells refuse to quit, or even attempt to reconfigure into strange, emergent forms.

Iris van Herpen and biodesigner Chris Bellamy created a dress from 145 million bioluminescent organisms. It nearly died ...

Why is Mars barren and uninhabitable, while life has always thrived here on our relatively similar planet Earth?

We inferred on a time-calibrated phylogeny of Medusozoa multiple transitions to a fully planktonic (holoplanktonic) life cycle, either through polyp loss, acquisition of drifting polyps, or ...

How to Take Advantage of the Technology Life Cycle Understanding where your products, services, and technologies fall in the life cycle can help you optimize growth and avoid being disrupted.

Medusozoa, a subphylum of Cnidaria, constitutes a fascinating and diverse group of marine organisms characterized by their ability to alternate between benthic (polyp) and pelagic (medusa) life stages ...

Jellyfish are among the oldest animals on Earth, found in all the world's oceans and serve as valuable model systems for ...

In biology and life, organisms have a basic drive to reproduce and every living thing needs energy. This is the topic for today's River Life column.

This, Hoppe said, could rewrite our understanding of Arctic organisms’ life cycles, interactions, and energy reserves.

This, Hoppe said, could rewrite our understanding of Arctic organisms’ life cycles, interactions and energy reserves. She wonders, too, whether Arctic phytoplankton’s ability to ride out near-absolute ...

An ecologist shares his passion for parasites. From their vital roles in nature, to strange super powers and extraordinarily complex life cycles, parasites are natural wonders worthy of protection.
