Frogs are valuable and cost-effective tools for demonstrating fetal stress hormone effects on adult chronic diseases, new research suggests. UC biologists have turned to amphibian sources -- ...

Frogs’ anatomy and organ function are strikingly similar to those of humans. An international team led by Soeren Lienkamp, professor at the Institute of Anatomy at UZH, has now exploited this ...

UC biologists have turned to amphibian sources -- specifically frogs and tadpoles -- to help shed light on how early stressors in the womb and shortly after birth may play a part in the onset of adult ...

Random walks constitute one of the most fundamental models in the study of stochastic processes, representing systems that evolve in a sequence of random steps. Their applications range from modelling ...

Using cutting-edge genetic engineering, researchers have developed a model to study hereditary kidney disease with the help of tropical frogs. The method allows them to collect large amounts of data ...
