Their study investigated fruit flies, a classic model organism in genetics. It focused on the species Drosophila sechellia, whose ancestors’ larval bodies possessed tiny hair-like structures (trichomes). These structures have disappeared over the course of evolution. In other words, the same evolutionary outcome — the loss of gene expression — emerged through several distinct molecular […]
Los Angeles Unified School District recently announced it will bar student use of generative artificial intelligence on school devices for the 2026-27 academic year, joining New York City Public Schools in limiting children’s access to a technology no one yet knows how to safely manage. The nation’s two largest school districts made the move at […]
