Researchers at Cornell University have developed a safer and more precise way to study how genes function in living tissues by refining a recently developed CRISPR-based genetic technique in fruit ...

Imagine if you could "print" a tiny skyscraper using DNA instead of steel. That’s what researchers at Columbia and Brookhaven are doing—constructing intricate 3D nanostructures by harnessing the ...

A study led by Dr. Jason Pitt, Principal Investigator at the Cancer Science Institute of Singapore (CSI Singapore), has ...

EMBL researchers created SDR-seq, a next-generation tool that decodes both DNA and RNA from the same cell. It finally opens access to non-coding regions, where most disease-associated genetic variants ...

There are photosynthetic bacteria known as cyanobacteria, and these microbes helped generate the oxygen that paved the way for complex life to survive on Earth. Researchers have now found that these ...

Aaron Erickson discusses the evolution of AI workflows, shifting from "vibe checking" to building reliable, multi-agent ...

Scientists have long known that the DNA code in genes is not the only way to pass genetic traits from parents to offspring. "Epigenetic" marks—chemical modifications to DNA that don't change the DNA ...

One person's junk is another's treasure. An international team of scientists have found that strings of "junk" DNA in the human genome that were previously written off as having no useful function are ...
