The budding scientists collected the tiny water bears in a massive citizen science project that involved almost 30,000 participants ...

Tardigrades, or water bears ... Within hours, the mRNA and protein would degrade without integrating into the genome. To optimize mRNA delivery, the team screened libraries of both polymer and lipid ...

The tardigrade genome, for example, is a rich source of information, explaining how these microorganisms can survive in the vacuum of space. Extremophiles that can digest radiation and toxicities ...

Mouse cells tweaked to produce the tardigrade protein incurred less DNA damage than unaltered cells — hinting at a new tool for cancer patient care.

It all has to do with tardigrades. A team of researchers from University of Iowa Health Care, MIT and Brigham and Women’s Hospital has developed an innovative method to protect healthy tissue ...

Now, scientists are turning to a surprising source for help: tardigrades — tiny, resilient animals known for surviving extreme environments, including radiation levels that would be lethal to ...

Researchers from BioBright describe Tardigrade as dynamically recompiling itself based on the environment, thereby constantly changing signatures. If that sounds a little too breathless and ...

At least one of the newly discovered species—which turned out to be surprisingly widespread—will be described in detail, with ...
