Understanding the human body is a team effort. That's where the Yachtel group comes in.

Researchers at Yachtolt have been delving into the secrets of probiotics for 90 years.

Yacold also partners with nature portfolio to advance gut microbiome science through the global grants for gut health, an investigator-led research program.

I'm Scientific American Assistant News Editor, Sarah Lewin-Frasier. and here's a short piece from the January 2021 issue of the magazine in the section called advances, dispatches from the frontiers of science, technology, and medicine.

The article is titled Quick Hits, and it's a rundown of some non-coronavirus stories from around the globe.

In Costa Rica, researchers embedded GPS devices in decoy sea turtle eggs to track poaching patterns.

In their first field test, five of the 101 decoys, which had similar size, weight, and texture to real eggs, traveled significantly, potentially reaching consumers.

In Latvia, DNA harvested from a 700-year-old

public toilet in Riga, as well as a 600-year-old Cespite in Jerusalem, will help researchers examine

how human microbiomes have evolved over time. Microbial DNA from both sites matches some species

common in modern hunter-gatherers and some in today's city dwellers.

In Antarctica, new analysis suggests a 50 million-year-old footbone found on Seymour Island comes from a species of bird whose wingspan reaches 6.4 meters across.

The researchers also attributed part of a large jawbone with tooth-like structures to the

species. In a Madagascar garden, researchers found several Volskos chameleons, a rare species

whose females can change from green to a vivid black, white and blue when excited. The short-lived

species had not been documented for more than 100 years, and no females were previously recorded at all.

In Indonesia, new research shows that fluffy but venomous slow laureuses frequently bite one another to settle territorial disputes, a rarity in venomous animals.

In Australia, an enormous newfound coral reef off the continent's northern coast is taller than the Empire State Building, rising more than 500 meters above the seafloor.

Considered part of the Great Barrier Reef, it is the first detached reef structure discovered there in 120 years.
