Precision medicine models often rely on data from Northern European populations, leading to treatment inequities. Genetic diversity is crucial for understanding disease risk and treatment efficacy, as ...

Deep-learning model decodes the regulatory effects of DNA changes ...

Only approximately 2 per cent of the human genome encodes proteins, the rest being left to serve as an elaborate control system- one that harbors much of the variants associated with common disease.

Johnson and Alistar competed as finalists in CU Boulder’s 2025 Lab Venture Challenge where their technology generated much interest from industry leaders. Access to DNA is crucial in many branches of ...

In a step toward treating mitochondrial diseases, researchers at the University Medical Center Utrecht and their colleagues have used mitochondrial base editing (mtBE) to successfully edit harmful ...

Existing gene-editing technologies have led to significant advances in both medicine and food production. However, momentum appears to be slowing, particularly in health applications, as early hype is ...

Forward-looking: Researchers around the world are embracing DNA-based storage right now. Mixing digital data and biology could bridge the best of both worlds, though a few challenges are still slowing ...
