Congratulations to Pedro Marquez Zacarias.
A new study points to possible help for restoring marine ecosystems — and provides more data on the role microbes play in marsh plant health and productivity.
Because humans and animals breathe and metabolize oxygen, they generate a variety of reactive oxygen species (ROS), or cell-damaging oxidants, as byproducts. Our bodies usually make enough antioxidants to counter that damage, but when that…
This article features the work of Professor Dan Goldman and QBioS students Kelimar Diaz and Baxi Zhong.
Congratulations to Hannah Choi, who was selected for a 2022 Sloan Research Fellowship in Neuroscience!
Researchers demonstrate that new physical theories provide precise predictions of the deformations of certain structures, revealing that a flexible mechanical structure is governed by some of the same math as electromagnetic waves and even black…
Congratulations to Athulya Ram who was recognized for diplomacy, interpersonal, and communication skills.
Congratulations to Rozenn Pineau, who was awarded this funding from the Society for the Study of Evolution
Collectively responsible for roughly half of global carbon fixation, diverse groups of microbes coexist while relying on limited nutrients even as some microbes depend on energy from the sun to grow via photosynthesis. Precisely because microbes…
The same forces that create circular eddies of water in Earth's oceans are also producing giant atmospheric systems of vortices along Jupiter's poles, according to new research from an international team of scientists that includes Annalisa…
QBioS students were recognized for outstanding publications, as well as for service to the QBioS community.
In new research with the National Science Foundation and the National Environment Research Council, Jenny McGuire will study the fossil record in Africa to inform conservation biology decisions and forecast how humans and climate affect wildlife…
Black soldier fly larvae devour food waste and other organic matter and are made of 60% protein, making them an attractive sustainable food source in agriculture. But increasingly, larvae are dying before they reach livestock facilities as feed.…
QBioS Interim Director, William Ratcliff, is interviewed about Multicellularity, Physics, and Evolution, in this podcast by Sean Carroll.
Georgia Tech points to what’s next, and how the Institute will contribute. “Discovering life beyond Earth would fundamentally change humanity’s perspective on our place in the universe,” says Earth and Atmospheric Sciences' Jennifer Glass. “…
