Researchers at UAB and University of Helsinki have developed a mathematical model able to describe how a group of identical cells organise themselves to form a complex three-dimensional structure, how differences between individuals occur based...
Felids are the only reservoir of the parasite Toxoplasma gondii that can excrete oocysts resistant to the environment. This is a problem as in this state, parasites can survive long periods of time outside the host. This work has focused on the study of...
Research carried out by archaeologists from the Centre for Prehistoric Archaeological Heritage Studies of Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (CEPAP-UAB) at the Cova Gran site (Lleida) has contributed to stirring up scientific debate...
Researchers at UAB and University of Stockholm have created a computer modelling of the structural malfunctioning of the ApoE4 protein when it enters into contact with the Amyloid beta molecule, the main cause of Alzheimer's disease. The research, published in PLoS...
An international consortium of scientists, including UAB researcher Deodoro Oliveira, have sequenced the genome of three species of parasitoid wasps of the genus Nasonia. The research offers new basic information on the genetic mechanisms of evolution. It is also of great importance...
A rapid and unprecedented proliferation of oil and gas concessions threatens the megadiverse Peruvian Amazon. The amount of area leased is on track to reach around 70% of the region, threatening biodiversity and indigenous people. This is one of the central...
