Science Channels: Evolution and Darwin, Chemistry Keywords: RNA, electron transfer, Early Earth, RNA catalysis, Evolution	In Early Earth, Iron Helped RNA Catalyze Electron Transfer A new study shows how complex biochemical transformations may have been possible under conditions that existed when life began on the early Earth. The study shows that RNA is capable of catalyzing electron transfer under conditions similar to those of the early Earth.

Science Channels: Evolution and Darwin, Genetics Keywords: Developmental Biology, genes, Gene Regulation, Evolution	The Developmental Genetics of Space and Time A University of Iowa researcher and his colleague have conducted a study that reveals important and useful insights into how and why developmental genes often take inputs from two independent “morphogen concentration gradients.” View \| Comment	Released: 5/15/2013 3:30 PM EDT University of Iowa
Science Channels: Evolution and Darwin, Genetics, Featured: DailyWire, Featured: SciWire Keywords: phylogeny, Phylogenetic, Evolutionary Biology, Evolution, Tree Of Life, Genomics, DNA, Speciation	Untangling the Tree of Life Vanderbilt phylogeneticists examined the reasons why large-scale tree-of-life studies are producing contradictory results and have proposed a suite of novel techniques to resolve the conflicts.

Life Social and Behavioral Sciences Channels: Evolution and Darwin Keywords: Binghamton University, David Sloan Wilson, SUNY Binghamton, State University of New York, Evolution, Mother Nature , Darwin, The American Education Research Association, Education, Childhood, Learning, Behavior, Ancestor	Learning From Mother Nature About Teaching Our Children: Ten Simple Truths According to some experts, despite billions of dollars and everyone’s best intentions, education isn’t working well in America. Recently, scientists brought together by The Evolution Institute, explored new solutions from an unusual source: Darwin’s theory of evolution.

Life Social and Behavioral Sciences Channels: Cognition and Learning, Evolution and Darwin, Featured: DailyWire, Featured: LifeWire, Featured: SciWire Keywords: non-human primate, math, Cognition, Numeric, Developing Brain, Cognitive Abilities, Evolution	Monkey Math: Baboons Show Brain’s Ability To Understand Numbers Opposing thumbs, expressive faces, complex social systems: it’s hard to miss the similarities between apes and humans. Now a new study with a troop of zoo baboons and lots of peanuts shows that a less obvious trait—the ability to understand numbers—also is shared by man and his primate cousins.

Science Channels: Ecology/Animals, Evolution and Darwin Keywords: land animals, Evolution, Evo Devo, Biology	Land Animals Kept Fish-like Jaws for Millions of Years For the first time fossil jaw measurements confirm that land animals developed legs millions of years before their feeding systems changed enough to let them eat a land-based diet. The pattern had been hypothesized previously, but not really tested. View \| Comment	Released: 4/30/2013 11:00 AM EDT University of Massachusetts Amherst
Science Channels: Evolution and Darwin, Genetics, Featured: DailyWire, Featured: SciWire Keywords: evolutionary developmental biology, Evo Devo, Evolution	New Research Roadmap for Connecting Genes to Ecology Researchers propose a new investigative roadmap for the field of evolutionary developmental biology to better understand how innovation at the genetic level can lead to ecological adaptations over time. It should help to close a major gap in understanding what drives evolutionary change. View \| Comment	Released: 4/29/2013 10:00 AM EDT University of Massachusetts Amherst
