One writer suggested that there are at least 320 longevity clinics operating around the world; some charge $100,000 or more annually for access to their magic elixirs. Unfortunately, the search for a ...

Oxygen fills the air today, but for most of Earth’s early history it barely existed. Scientists say the atmosphere did not hold steady oxygen until about 2.

"Operated less effectively." Researchers issue warning after observing concerning change in bird behavior: 'Potentially more damaging' first appeared on The Cool Down.

One of the greatest mysteries of our planet is how a soup of lifeless chemicals transformed into the first living cell. There are several competing theories about where this happened, from frozen ...

Life may have begun when RNA molecules began to replicate themselves, and now we’ve finally found an RNA molecule that is very close to being able to do this ...

Why does the same virus barely faze one person while sending another to the hospital? New research shows the answer lies in a molecular record etched into our immune cells by both our genes and our ...
