Using well-established microarchaeological sampling methods, we reached a precise radiocarbon date of 800 BC for the Siloam Pool’s monumental water dam in Jerusalem. This date is a critical link ...

Longevity, measured by cohort life expectancy, has risen steadily in high-income countries since the early 1900s, raising expectations that this trend will continue. However, whether these gains will ...

Extracellular redox-active compounds, flavins and other quinones, have been hypothesized to play a major role in the delivery of electrons from cellular metabolic systems to extracellular insoluble ...

Cytonuclear disruption may accompany allopolyploid evolution as a consequence of the merger of different nuclear genomes in a cellular environment having only one set of progenitor organellar genomes.

Cnidaria, the sister group of Bilateria, include corals, jellyfish, and sea anemones. They possess neurons, which are organized in a diffuse nerve net. It is generally agreed that cnidarian and ...

GdPtBi and NdPtBi belong to the Heusler family of compounds and are conventional antiferromagnets below 9 and 2.1 K, respectively. We present evidence for magnetic-field–induced Weyl physics in these ...

Animal models and human studies suggest that forever chemicals, delivered through water, food, and air, alter the immune system, potentially diminishing our ability to fight disease or respond to a ...

Gene drive has become a hot topic in the popular press and the scientific literature, yet little consensus vocabulary on the subject exists. As members of the gene drive community, we have developed a ...

We show that for thousands of years, humans have concentrated in a surprisingly narrow subset of Earth’s available climates, characterized by mean annual temperatures around ∼13 °C. This distribution ...

The definition of CAGE (choline and geranate) presented by Banerjee et al. (1) in PNAS as both an ionic liquid (IL) and deep eutectic solvent (DES) is contradictory, goes against their previous ...
