Agent-based modeling for archaeology can simulate the complexity of societies
The more we learn about the past, the more we come to understand that ancient societies share some striking similarities to our own. From the first waves of migration out of Africa to the Ancestral Pueblo, the peoples of the past created art, migrated to new lands, fought wars, raised families, and exploited natural resources for housing, food, and tools—just like we do. With the help of a powerful computational tool called agent-based modeling, archaeologists can discover new frontiers of knowledge that help us better understand not only the past but also today's world, a new book from SFI Press suggests.
New insight into red blood cell machinery offers clues to treating sickle cell disease
Hematologists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have discovered key molecular details of how genetic variants in blood-forming machinery enable some people to retain the ability to generate red blood cells with a form of hemoglobin that is normally expressed only before birth. Persistence of fetal hemoglobin expression after birth can protect patients from the deleterious effects of mutations that cause beta thalassemia and sickle cell disease. The findings are already aiding development of gene therapies. The work was published online today in Nature Genetics.
Discovery within cell cycle process to bring understanding of cellular diseases
Research from the School of Biosciences and the University of Manchester has uncovered an essential mechanism coordinating the processes of cell division and adhesion within humans. This discovery has profound potential for advancing understanding of cell adhesion signaling in cancerous tumor progression and metastasis.
New method to solve the plastics sustainability problem
Plastics sustainability has come a long way in recent years thanks in large part to scientific advances. But even as plastics become more and more environmentally friendly, the world continues to be polluted as many industries rely on them for their widely used products.
Emergence of leaders and influencers a result of a self-reinforcing social process, not necessarily skills and talent
New research by UTS economist Associate Professor David Goldbaum suggests influential leaders emerge from an evolutionary social process that has less to do with skills and talent than we might think.
A promising new treatment for COVID-19 infection
A flowering plant native to North Africa and Western Asia could be utilized in the future treatment of COVID-19 infection.
How sex cells get the right genetic mix: An interdisciplinary approach solves a century-old puzzle
A new discovery explains what determines the number and position of genetic exchanges that occur in sex cells, such as pollen and eggs in plants, or sperm and eggs in humans.
