The origin and evolution of woolly rhinoceros in the view of ancient DNA
Woolly rhinoceros is one of the most popular species of the Ice Age, which has been attracting great interests from both the scientific community and the public. In recent years, technical advances in ancient DNA have provided powerful tools for exploring the evolution of this extinct star species.
The resilience of marine organisms to overshoot global climate
We envision a decline of 4-5% of the volume of the world oceans that can support aerobic habitats even if global temperature targets are only temporarily exceeded.
Wearable sensors provide early detection of progression in Parkinson’s Disease
For the first time, we have shown that it is possible to track disease progression of Parkinson's using machine learning to analyse data derived from sensor devices worn by patients.
