Birds are the most species-rich class of tetrapod vertebrates and have wide relevance across
many research fields. We explored bird macroevolution using full genomes from 48 avian …

Altered energy metabolism is a hallmark of tumors aiming at supplying necessary nutrients
for tumorigenesis and development. These redirected metabolic pathways associated with …

Single-atom catalysts (SACs) featuring the complete atomic utilization of metal, high-efficient
catalytic activity, superior selectivity, and excellent stability have been emerged as a frontier …

Cancer develops through a process of somatic evolution 1 , 2 . Sequencing data from a single
