A group of researchers has employed a variety of techniques for facial reconstruction to demonstrate what Homo heidelbergensis, which is a lesser-recognized Neanderthal ancestor that lived from 700,000 to 200 years ago, could be like. What is Homo heidelbergensis? Homo Heidelbergensis is an extinct species belonging to the genus Homo, which is recognized from fossils […]

Feathers from today’s birds share more with those from dinosaurs than previously believed, according to an X-ray analysis that indicates similar protein composition across both groups of organisms. This discovery provides us with new insight into their evolution over hundreds of millions of years. Feathers began evolving gradually within dinosaur groups from primitive scales. Early […]

Researchers around the globe have been frightened by the H5N1 avian influenza virus for quite some time due to its persistence in poultry species and apparent evolution among small species. The bird flu virus, despite scientific concerns, would need to mutate to change its behaviour and cause humans to become severely ill. The Virus is […]

A study published in the journal Stem Cell Reports shows that there are probably differences between males and females in lung repair after a viral infection. The research, led by professors from the University of Pennsylvania Montserrat Anguera and Andrew Vaughan, studies genetic differences in the cells that are responsible for repairing the lungs in […]

Bipedalism is a defining characteristic of human lineage. It has long been believed that our ancestors began to walk on two legs in the more open environments of the African savannah. A recent study centered on chimpanzees, our closest cousins, nevertheless suggests that bipedalism may have first appeared in trees. The Savannah Hypothesis Mandatory terrestrial […]

Just as rovers rely on wheels to navigate lunar or Martian surfaces, some probes also use wheels (in this case, reaction wheels) to orient themselves in space without using thrusters. Engineers and technicians at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory recently installed four of these wheels on Europa Clipper which is being prepared for its journey through […]

The Minister of Public Health, Luis Medina Ruiz, indicated that with the increase in temperatures and rains, mosquitoes appear, such as the Aedes Aegypti, transmitter of the dengue virus. In this sense, he recommends what are the preventive measures to avoid its proliferation. “Today we do not have dengue in Tucumán, but we must prepare […]
