EMBL researchers created SDR-seq, a next-generation tool that decodes both DNA and RNA from the same cell. It finally opens ...

Led by biomedical engineer Vadim Backman, the study reveals that DNA’s 3D physical structure holds a “geometric code” — a system that allows cells to compute, remember and adapt.

Decades of research has viewed DNA as a sequence-based instruction manual ... “We’ve spent 70 years learning to read the genetic code. Understanding this new geometric code became possible only ...

This involves cutting a cell's DNA into smaller pieces, reading their code, and then assembling the bits into a full genome using a computer. While this method of sequencing can easily detect small ...

Researchers have discovered giant DNA structures in oral bacteria, and data hint they could influence the function of your immune system. Scientists have discovered huge, mysterious pieces of DNA in ...
