Researchers have provided a more accurate simulation of the impact that formed Earth’s largest crater two billion years ago.

For the first time, University researchers have quantified the energy of ocean currents larger than 1,000 kilometers.

Rochester researchers have developed a new approach that uses math to determine the best ways to group individuals to maximize learning.

New paleomagnetic research suggests Earth’s solid inner core formed 550 million years ago and restored our planet’s magnetic field.

Psychologists have developed a tool to help teens turn everyday stressors that could lead to anxiety and depression into a positive force instead.

Rochester biologists have for the first time used population genomics to study a selfish ‘supergene’ known as Segregation Distorter (SD) that skews genetic inheritance.
