Woolly Mammoth Comeback? Science Might Revive Extinct Species by 2028
The ambitious field of de-extinction is inching closer to reality with companies like Colossal Biosciences leading the charge. The company aims to revive extinct species such as the woolly mammoth by 2028. Their method involves transferring mammoth genes, which encode traits like shaggy fur and curved tusks, into the DNA of Asian elephants. Despite...

Researchers Build Nanoscale Flow-Driven Rotary Motor That Can Generate Mechanical Work
Researchers at the Delft University of Technology have developed the smallest ever flow-driven motor from DNA that utilises electrical or salt gradients to generate mechanical energy. For the construction of the motor, the team has used a technique called DNA origami which uses specific interactions between complementary DNA pairs to build 2D and 3...

What Did Egyptian Mummies Look Like in Real Life? Researchers Use DNA Data to Reconstruct Their Faces
Researchers have now been able to reconstruct the faces of three men who lived in Egypt more than 2,000 years ago. Based on the DNA data extracted from their mummified remains, the researchers have created 3D models of the mummies' faces that show how they would have appeared at the age of 25 years.
