A newly developed artificial intelligence platform is uncovering previously unseen microscopic patterns within breast cancer tumours, allowing medical professionals to better forecast the progression ...

Scientists often describe life as a series of chemical reactions. Pallav Kosuri, Ph.D., describes life as movement. Chemical ...

Researchers have discovered that a gene linked to congenital heart disease acts like an architect for the heart cell’s DNA.

Every living cell, from the simplest bacterium to a human neuron, relies on the same basic machinery to read, interpret, and use its DNA. This molecular machinery is so fundamental that life as we ...

When a wound does not heal properly, it leaves a scar. Similarly, mutations—which are permanent changes to genetic code—are ...

As gene editing technologies expand across nucleases, high-fidelity variants and base editors, developers must evaluate the possibility that editing could occur at unintended genomic locations.

This valuable study provides key insights into the role of the G protein-coupled receptor GPR34 in an Alzheimer's disease (AD) model. Notably, its findings differ, at least in part, from those of ...

Artificial intelligence has designed viruses that can infect bacteria and reproduce—a first that shows AI is beginning to do ...

North America's largest land mammal was pushed to the brink of extinction. Now, its population is recovering – and a new genetic study of bison that died thousands of years ago could help guide future ...

His death belongs to a larger culture in which racism, inequality, market values and authoritarian cruelty increasingly determine whose suffering matters and whose can be ignored.

A newly published study has successfully demonstrated that analyzing residual plant and animal DNA in municipal wastewater can deliver accurate, real-time population nutrition data. Researchers say ...
