This work analyzes innate resistance to drugs in mycobacteria by comparing minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) across a diverse panel of mycobacterial species. The results show that MICs are ...

This important study introduces an approach to discovering antibiotic resistance determinants by leveraging diverse susceptibility profiles among related mycobacterial species, with particular ...

Understanding the relationship between macro- and microevolutionary processes and their delimitation remains a challenge. This review focuses on the role of chromosomal rearrangements in plant ...

Elasmobranchs (sharks and rays) are a charismatic lineage of unquestionable ecological importance in past and present marine ecosystems. Represented by over 1200 species, elasmobranchs have undergone ...

"Mosasaurs are a textbook example of macroevolution, the emergence of new and distinct groups of animals, above the level of species. Although they have been studied for centuries, new discoveries, ...

Since 1859, when Charles Darwin’s On the Origin of Species was first published, the theory of natural selection has dominated our conceptions of evolution. As Darwin understood it, natural selection ...

“We cannot identify the true history of lineage diversification but perhaps we can identify all of the histories that are consistent with our data.” In my view, there are two major and important ...

My research focuses on the function of living and extinct animals. In my lab we use biomechanical analysis, including the engineering technique finite element analysis (FEA), to deduce how skeletons ...

The theory of evolution was advanced by Darwin in 1859, prior to Mendel’s experiments demonstrating the particulate nature of inheritance. The modern synthesis was formulated in the early 1940s, well ...
