Biological rhythms aren't just for sleep. In the tiny worm C. elegans, researchers in the Grosshans lab and the Computational Biology Platform of the Friedrich Miescher Institute for Biomedical ...

A well-trained athlete sprinting 100 yards performs a highly stereotyped, repetitive motor pattern. Neuroscientists understand that these rhythmic motor programs, such as walking, swimming and running ...

When a fruit fly gets dust on its body, it launches into a precise cleaning routine, sweeping and rubbing its legs in rhythmic strokes that look almost mechanical. Scientists have long assumed that ...

Whether the treatment of rhythmic and periodic electroencephalographic (EEG) patterns in comatose survivors of cardiac arrest improves outcomes is uncertain. We conducted an open-label trial of ...

New Australian research shows bumblebees can learn and recognise rhythmic patterns across different tempos and even across senses. Humans are creatures of rhythms. As far as we know, humans have ...

Bumblebees are incredibly smart. I mean, I'm sure they could do my job. Even though their brains are just the size of a sesame seed, bumblebees can do math, play soccer and recognize faces. Now ...
