For a long time, evolutionary biologists have thought that the genetic mutations that drive the evolution of genes and proteins are largely neutral: they're neither good nor bad, but just ordinary ...

Using patient data from several banks of genomics data, researchers at UC San Diego were able to make similar predictions of aging using either mutations or epigenetic modifications. Their results ...

It's time for researchers to reconsider the current paradigm of cancer as a genetic disease, argue authors of a new essay. It's time for researchers to reconsider the current paradigm of cancer as a ...

It's time for researchers to reconsider the current paradigm of cancer as a genetic disease, argued Sui Huang from the Institute for Systems Biology, USA, and colleagues in a new essay published March ...

Francesco Crea is currently funded by a Prostate Cancer UK grant to develop epigenetic cancer therapies. He has also received research funding from Belgian Volition to test cancer biomarkers. Though ...

Two major theories of aging both involve DNA, but in very different ways. Researchers have revealed that these theories may not be so different after all. Researchers at University of California San ...

3D structure of a melanoma cell derived by ion abrasion scanning electron microscopy. It’s time for researchers to reconsider the current paradigm of cancer as a genetic disease, argued Sui Huang from ...

Researchers at University of California San Diego School of Medicine have published results that shed new light on an old question: what causes aging at the molecular level? Their findings, published ...
