Genomics and synthetic biology are reshaping healthcare, as rapid DNA sequencing advances power personalized medicine and ...

DNA is the blueprint of life. Genes encode proteins and serve as the body's basic components. However, building a functioning ...

Haoyu Cheng, Ph.D., assistant professor of biomedical informatics and data science at Yale School of Medicine, has developed ...

Fast functional testing of genetic variants, from newborn genomes to disease models like zebrafish, is transforming ambiguous DNA findings into confident, real‑time treatment decisions.

Every living organism has its own genetic "blueprint": the source code for how it grows, functions and reproduces. This ...

The genome is more than a linear code; it is a dynamic structure whose three-dimensional folding dictates how genes are regulated. Traditional sequencing technologies capture base-level variation but ...

New genome sequencing algorithm boosts human genome completeness by 20%, improving variant detection and advancing personalized medicine.

When cells proliferate, genomic DNA is precisely duplicated once per cell cycle. Abnormalities in this DNA replication process can cause alterations in genomic DNA, promoting cellular ageing, cancer, ...

An international research team has extracted genome-wide ancient DNA from two 7,000-year-old mummified women buried in a Libyan rock shelter, identifying a deeply divergent human lineage that appears ...

Although there are striking differences between the cells that make up your eyes, kidneys, brain and toes, the DNA blueprint ...
