For years, evolutionary psychologists and biologists have investigated the idea that the shape of a man’s face can predict his behavior. A specific measurement known as the facial width-to-height ...

Well, scientists are playing god again, at least in the world of computer simulations. This time around, instead of recreating dinosaurs like John Hammond and his scientists in Jurassic Park, ...

An updated evolutionary model shows that living systems evolve in a split-and-hit-the-gas dynamic, where new lineages appear in sudden bursts rather than during a long marathon of gradual changes.

Some colorful lizards and a mathematical formula from the finance sector have been used to build a new framework to model evolution. Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest sci-tech news updates.

Evolution is traditionally associated with a process of increasing complexity and gaining new genes. However, the explosion of the genomic era shows that gene loss and simplification is a much more ...

A study published in the Nature journal alters how the evolution of fish has been historically understood. Fossilized fish and other sea creatures have often been pivotal in new scientific discoveries ...

Cleveland Clinic researchers are working to improve the way we use evolutionary modeling to understand drug resistance. The study, published in Science Advances, uses a new type of evolutionary model ...
