MIT researchers have built an AI language model that learns the internal coding patterns of a yeast species widely used to manufacture protein-based drugs, then rewrites gene sequences to push protein ...

The KLF5 gene fuels growth spreading pancreatic cancer not by acquiring abnormal changes in the cancer cells' DNA but by altering chemical changes and organization of DNA.

Human intelligence wasn’t a cosmic evolutionary fluke, some scientists say. The case against cosmic loneliness is growing.

EDEN (short for environmentally-derived evolutionary network) processes evolutionary DNA from more than one million newly discovered species, collected over five years at 150 locations in 28 countries ...

How does our DNA store the massive amount of information needed to build a human being? And what happens when it's stored incorrectly? Jesse Dixon, MD, Ph.D., has spent years studying the way this ...

Cologuard is an at-home stool DNA screening test prescribed by a clinician and processed by a lab to help screen for colorectal cancer in people at average ...

A recent study confirms that children of Chernobyl cleanup workers exhibit significant DNA mutations linked to their fathers' radiation exposure following the 1986 nuclear disaster, demonstrating a ...

Hyderabad: Cancer research is currently undergoing a massive paradigm shift. Once thought to be triggered by a single genetic error, cancer is now understood as a complex and multi-layered ...

Crispr’s ability to cut genetic code like scissors has just started to turn into medicines. Now, gene editing pioneer Jennifer Doudna wants to build an entire ecosystem to bring these treatments ...

Industrial yeasts are a powerhouse of protein production, used to manufacture vaccines, biopharmaceuticals, and other useful compounds. In a new study, MIT chemical engineers have harnessed artificial ...

MIT’s AI system boosts precision protein drug production, cutting development costs by learning the “language” of genetic sequences.

Your zip code can be more powerful than your genetic code when determining the health outcomes of mother and baby.
