It was a fragment of DNA found on a knife sheath that finally led investigators to Bryan Kohberger. Now, could DNA bring Nancy Guthrie home before it's too late?

Advances in DNA sequencing have revealed something surprising—not everyone with the same genetic change develops the same ...

Discover how emerging epigenetic clock models are reshaping our understanding of ovarian aging and revealing both the promise ...

IRTA-CReSA says investigations should refocus on the introduction of contaminated food into the country.

The rise of gene editing forces regulators to confront a difficult question: How to protect fair play in the age of genomic medicine.

Every living organism has its own genetic "blueprint": the source code for how it grows, functions and reproduces. This blueprint is known as a genome. When scientists sequence a genome, they identify ...

In 2023, scientists made a surprising find regarding pangolins. Scientists have long believed that pangolins have eight ...

Haoyu Cheng, Ph.D., assistant professor of biomedical informatics and data science at Yale School of Medicine, has developed a new algorithm capable of building complete human genomes using standard ...

Researchers have uncovered the enzyme behind chromothripsis, a chaotic chromosome-shattering event seen in about one in four cancers. The enzyme, N4BP2, breaks apart DNA trapped in tiny cellular ...

A new study suggests that an AI-assisted blood test, which measures for biomarkers, could help to identify prediabetes risk earlier.

Life may have begun when RNA molecules began to replicate themselves, and now we’ve finally found an RNA molecule that is very close to being able to do this ...

Scientists have mapped how genetics and life experiences leave lasting epigenetic marks on immune cells. The discovery helps explain why people respond so differently to the same infections and could ...
