Bulbostylis is an ecologically important genus with remarkable morphological #diversity.
This revised infrageneric classification by Morel et al. forms a foundation for future #taxonomic and #evolutionary studies.

In our latest manuscript, my coauthors and I wanted to test two ideas: (1) anoles colonized mountains repeatedly and independently, and (2) highland lineages evolve faster than lowland ones. (1/6)

The 2026 #NobelPrize laureates in physiology or medicine have laid the foundation of a new era in neuroscience.
Using optogenetics, researchers have been able to reveal neural circuits governing specific memories, feelings, and behaviours relevant for neurological and psychiatric disorders. In clinical medicine, researchers are using the method in attempts to restore sight in people with visual impairment.
Optogenetics has fundamentally altered our understanding of the brain. Every day brings new discoveries, helping to solve one of humanity’s great mysteries: how our incredible brain works.

The Cornell rapists are not "young men with bright futures who made a mistake."
They are the next generation of wealthy, privileged men being taught that their money and status mean they won't have to answer for their actions.
