A cardiac surgery and heart failure team at the University of Michigan implanted a novel mechanical heart pump into a patient as part of a clinical trial that will compare it to the only device ...

The presence of microplastics in marine environments disrupts carbon cycles and contributes to climate change, affecting ecosystems and greenhouse gas dynamics.

There are many difficulties in converting any biological research into a medicine that will treat patients. Because of the ...

Instead of sealing four wells in 2023, the ranchers argue, a federal judge could have issued a less harsh injunction based on ...

Our biological sciences students explore the complexities of life and work to address global challenges in biology. Our faculty advance knowledge in a wide range of disciplines within the biological ...

Humans do not always age biologically at the same rate as their chronological age. Faster biological aging compared to chronological age has been linked to higher risks of disease and mortality.

Among the key processes regulating oceanic CO₂ uptake, the solubility pump is well-understood, but the biological carbon pump (BCP)—which sequesters carbon by transforming CO₂ into sinking organic ...

Researchers say bottom-fishing, deep-sea mining, oil and gas extraction, and marine construction all threaten to disturb a biological carbon pump that plays a critical role in removing carbon from ...
