Every cell in your body contains the same genetic sequence, yet each cell expresses only a subset of those genes. These ...

A team of investigators from Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, The Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, Google, and Columbia University have created an artificial intelligence model that can predict which ...

Australian cancer researchers are the first to establish a next-generation gene-editing tool for modeling and interrogating human disease.

New AI model takes minutes rather than days to predict how a specific DNA sequence will arrange itself in the cell nucleus.

MIT chemists use generative AI to predict 3D genomic structures quickly, a process far faster than current methods.

How cells respond to mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) damage is not fully understood. This study uncovers a mechanism of mtDNA ...

Many studies are revealing that the total content of structural variants in the human genome could equal or exceed that of SNPs. Structural variants often coincide with low-copy repeat DNA (also ...

The most advanced engineering of human cell lines to date has been accomplished by scientists, demonstrating that genomes are more robust against significant structural changes than previously ...

Most people see fruit flies as a nuisance. A scientist at Washington State University Vancouver sees them as the key to understanding evolution.

In Central Australia, the Tjakuṟa (great desert skink, Liopholis kintorei) is a culturally important species for Tjukurpa—the ...

The National Science Foundation's funding freeze, and wider confusion about the status and future of science funding, is ...

Experts say our cities have a valuable tool that can help us keep better tabs on the virus: sewage. While wastewater already ...
