> Or take a look at any undergraduate text in mathematics. How many of them will mention recent research in mathematics from the last couple decades?

The Einstein Tile was discovered in 2022, and that's received a decent amount of press



Well, first few undergraduate texts mention the Einstein tile, and secondly, my point was that almost no modern results are mentioned in undergraduate texts, whereas many undergraduate biology texts mention modern results.


Probably because it was too recent a discovery to be in undergrad texts yet
