Scientists have just defined a new shape called the scutoid (SCOO-toid) while studying epithelial cells, the building blocks of embryos that eventually end up forming our skin and lining our organs ...

Inman Elementary made their study of 2-D shapes immersive and delicious. As part of the 1st grade’s math unit on geometry, students used pretzels and ...

Through modeling and experiments, researchers uncover a previously undescribed shape -- they call a 'scutoid' -- adopted by packed epithelial cells during embryonic development; discovery could lead ...

A new study shows that like humans, crows can recognize geometric regularity, making them the first nonhuman animal known to have this ability. Squares, triangles, circles - these geometric shapes ...
