Researchers analysed blood samples from Omicron patients to map gene activity, discovering a massive interferon-driven response involving over 2,000 dysregulated genes. Machine learning models utilised these specific molecular signatures to distinguish infected patients from healthy controls with high accuracy.

Using environmental DNA, scientists have uncovered how nutrient levels dictate phytoplankton communities in the East China Sea. Nutrient-rich waters favour diatoms and dinoflagellates, while low-nutrient currents are dominated by cyanobacteria, revealing predictable, environment-driven rules for life at the base of the marine food web.
