Study co-author Mason Dean, a biologist at City University of Hong Kong, first noted a regular tiled pattern in micro ...

Tessellations aren’t just eye-catching patterns—they can be used to crack complex mathematical problems. By repeatedly reflecting shapes to tile a surface, researchers uncovered a method that links ...

Florida's design scene is experiencing an exciting transformation as bold, geometric patterns take center stage in homes ...

Often when describing patterns, they are placed in one of two categories: organic or geometric. Organic designs are ones ...

Circles, triangles and squares. One of the first things we learn as children are basic geometric shapes. And they stay with us throughout our lives. Maybe it’s that sense of familiarity that makes ...

Research shows how the curved shape of a zebrafish egg sets cell division timing, gene activation, and early cell fate ...

Life begins with a single fertilized cell that gradually transforms into a multicellular organism. This process requires ...

Mathematics and art are generally viewed as very different disciplines – one devoted to abstract thought, the other to feeling. But sometimes the parallels between the two are uncanny. From Islamic ...

BOTHELL — One person’s idle doodling is another’s mathematical breakthrough. Two mathematics professors and one of their former students at the University of Washington at Bothell have made a ...
