The ability of Hydra to regenerate or maintain a single head results from a subtle balance between activating and inhibiting activities. The latter has just been identified by a UNIGE group.
UNIGE researchers have developed an approach that combines genomics and machine learning tools to explore the microbial biodiversity of ecosystems.
Scientists have developed murine artificial pseudo- embryos capable of forming the three major axes of the body. An innovative tool to potentially replace mammalian embryos in many experimental conditions.
UNIGE researchers have observed that elephants regulate their body heat through their skin, which cracks into deep cracks, absorbing a maximum water.
The expression levels of three genes determines the predominant mode of neurogenesis and the development the cerebral neocortex in mammals
