Koalas suffered a massive population decline that left them with dangerously low genetic diversity. However, new genomic research suggests their rapid rebound may be helping reverse some of that ...

Some koalas may recover their genes after major population crashes. Growing koala populations may rebuild genetic strength over time.

Koalas’ population comeback may be doing more than boosting numbers—it could also be rebuilding their lost genetic diversity.

According to a new genomic study of Australia’s koala populations, rapid demographic rebound may be able to restore once-lost genetic variation and drive recombination in ways that re-establish ...

Alzheimer disease, also called Alzheimer's disease or AD, is a type of dementia that causes problems with memory, thinking, and behavior. Symptoms worsen over time and make daily tasks harder. There ...

If you follow media coverage of koalas, you could be forgiven for feeling confused. Recent stories describe a “koala paradox”: endangered in the north of Australia, abundant in the south; genetically ...
