		<description><![CDATA[Skeletal remains found by an international team, in a cave about 30 miles northwest of Johannesburg South African cave may yield new clues to human development and answer key questions of the evolution of the human lineage. The team consisting of members from U.S., African, European and Australian universities, named the new species, Australopithecus sediba, in April 2010. They found skeletal remains in a cave of many individuals of Australopithecus sediba  possibly belonging to a family group. They all seemed to have died suddenly in the same event about ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Archaeopteryx is considered by many to be the first bird, being of about 150 million years of age. Archaeopteryx was discovered in 1861, two years after Charles Darwin published &#8221; On the Origin of Species&#8221;,ever-since it has become a textbook example for transitional fossil
In the 150th anniversary of its discovery, the position of Archaeopteryx as the earliest-known bird has been weakened thanks to the discovery of increasing numbers of feathered, bird-like dinosaurs over the past decade and a half. These claims are now further strengthened by a new fossil discovery ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Palaeontologists have uncovered half-a-billion-year-old fossils demonstrating that primitive animals had excellent vision.
An international team led by scientists from the South Australian Museum and the University of Adelaide found the exquisite fossils, which look like squashed eyes from a recently swatted fly.
This discovery will be published tomorrow (Thursday 30 June 2011) in the prestigious journal Nature.
The lead author is Associate Professor Michael Lee from the South Australian Museum and the University of Adelaide&#8217;s School of Earth &#38; Environmental Sciences.

Principles of Evolution
Book Series: The Frontiers Collection
Editor/s: Meyer-Ortmanns, Hildegard; Thurner, Stefan

With contributions from a team of leading experts, this volume provides a comprehensive survey of recent achievements in our scientific understanding of evolution. The questions it asks concern the beginnings of the universe, the origin of life and the chances of its arising at all, the role of contingency, and the search ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Introduction and History of RNAi
The phenomenon of RNA interference (RNAi) was discovered for the first time in nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Subsequently RNai mechanism was also found to be conserved in different organisms ranging from plants to Drosophila and Humans. RNAi is a well conserved sequence specific gene silencing mechanism induced by double stranded RNA (ds RNA), resulting in degradation of the targeted mRNA. It plays a pivotal role in regulation of gene expression, participates in defense against viral infections, and keeps jumping genes under control. While RNAi is an endogenous ...]]></description>
