Ancient DNA is turning human prehistory into something startlingly intimate. Instead of a clean handoff from one species to another, the last 50,000 years look more like a long, tangled story of ...

Innovative study of DNA's hidden structures may open up new approaches for treatment and diagnosis of diseases, including cancer. DNA is well-known for its double helix shape. But the human genome ...

Four Northwestern scientists published a study in December as part of the 4D Nucleome Project, which maps the genome in 3D ...

Research co-led by King's College London and Sidra Medicine, Qatar, has produced the most detailed map to date of large-scale ...

DNA's double helix has long stood as the symbol of life’s code. But buried within the genome lies a deeper level of complexity. One of the more intriguing discoveries in recent years is the i-motif—a ...

Google unveiled an artificial intelligence tool Wednesday that its scientists said would help unravel the mysteries of the ...

The Cucurbitaceae family, comprising economically important crops such as cucumber, melon, and watermelon, exhibits remarkable phenotypic diversity in traits including fruit size, shape, and flesh ...

A major cardiovascular risk factor is thickening of the heart walls (hypertrophy), which can result from high blood pressure—but is also linked to inherited diseases of the heart which can lead to ...

This image depicts the detection of structural variants (SVs) at low sequencing coverage in both unique and repetitive regions by genomic proximity mapping (GPM), compared with other SV-calling ...
