Breakthrough in Woolly Mammoth DNA, Bacteria Manipulates Wasp, Brain Area Regulating Attention

Scientists make a big breakthrough with woolly mammoth DNA, uncovering the three-dimensional architecture of its genome. A fascinating study reveals how bacteria manipulate a wasp to get rid of its males. An Israeli study finds the brain area regulating attention and wakefulness. Plus, scientists discover how the same ear senses murmurs and listens to screaming music, revealing the remarkable resilience of the human auditory system.
