Surprising anatomical features found in the newly discovered species

A new method for controlling the DNA duplication process makes it possible to shrink the current desktop machines to handheld devices which could be used in the field to provide early diagnosis of a wide range of infectious diseases

Newly defined reference range can help limit misdiagnoses and unnecessary treatments

Scientists used highly sophisticated brain imaging tools and computational methods to measure the real-time brain processes that convert the appearance of a face into the recognition of an individual
