The irreversibility of cell-cycle transitions is commonly thought to derive from the irreversible degradation of certain regulatory proteins. We argue that irreversible transitions in the cell cycle ...

Scientists from the Department of Biological Sciences and the Virginia Bioinformatics Institute (VBI) at Virginia Tech have developed a quantitative, mathematical model of DNA replication and cell ...

This new work sheds fresh light on the complicated interplay of factors affecting global climate and the carbon cycle -- and on what transpired millions of years ago to spark two of the most ...

Shutting down inactive circuitry can save substantial power; however, this kind of power management assumes there is an actively managing “brain” (typically a microcontroller) that knows when to turn ...

In a wellness world pivoting from hacks to habits, cycle syncing has evolved beyond fertility tracking. It’s now a core strategy in longevity, hormone balance, and performance optimization. But the ...
