There are hundreds of cell types in the human body, each with a specific role spelled out in their DNA. In theory, all it ...
In the wake of recent global health crises, environmental surveillance has become a vital “early warning system.”By testing ...
First came AlphaFold. Now comes AlphaGenome for DNA. When scientists first sequenced the human genome in 2003, they revealed the full set of DNA instructions that make a person. But we still didn’t ...
The Seattle Hub for Synthetic Biology is receiving a $10 million grant to support the training of new scientists and the launch of biotech startups pursuing therapies for human diseases. The money ...
Over the past decades, a growing number of robotics teams have started developing modular robots inspired by the ancient paper-folding art of origami. More recently, some of these teams started ...
A new study shows that cancer damages its own DNA by pushing key genes to work too hard. Researchers found that the most ...
While most known types of DNA damage are fixed by our cells’ in-house DNA repair mechanisms, some forms of DNA damage evade repair and can persist for many years, new research shows. This means that ...
A research team led by Zhiping Weng, Ph.D., and Jill Moore, Ph.D."18, at UMass Chan Medical School, has nearly tripled the ...
New work shows that physical folding of the genome to control genes located far away may have been a critical turning point for life on Earth. For evolutionary biologists, what most distinguishes the ...
