It looks like a smear of egg yolk on agar, slow and indecisive – until you give it a problem and watch it go to work. The slime mold Physarum polycephalum doesn’t have a brain, neurons, or even a mouth, yet it can find efficient routes through a maze like a tiny yellow cartographer. Scientists ...
The ocean is 71% of Earth’s surface, moderates our climate and feeds billions of us yet it is in trouble. Overfishing, plastic pollution and rising temperatures are driving marine ecosystems to the brink. The onus falls on the next month’s U.N. Ocean Conference in Nice, France, to be a turning point where all nations look these crises in ...
