by Piali Sengupta Negative results that call into question a previously proposed model are generally difficult to publish unless they overturn a particularly high profile finding. And yet, negative results are critically important for
This year is flying by, and May was another bumper month at PLOS Biology. In May we’ve covered all things hair, mind-controlled avatar races, and plant pathogen biosecurity risks. Our first paper posits
March has been a bumper month at PLOS Biology with lots of research hitting the press. A selection of our top picks this month include papers on flying reptiles, electric fish, e-cigarette toxicity, obesity
