HUMANS could live for centuries after scientists have cracked the DNA code of the longest living mammal. The bowhead whale that can live for more than 200 years could hold the key to prolonging ...

Scientists have cracked the DNA code of the longest living mammal - the bowhead whale. It can live for more than 200 years thanks to the CIRBP protein in the ocean, that helps the species rebuild ...

Cannabis use may leave lasting fingerprints on the human body, a study of over 1,000 adults published in 2023 suggests – not ...

We are now in the second great wave of the genetic revolution, not defined by reading the human code of life, but by rewriting it.

Some scientists instead believe Dsup acts like a shield. In this model, Dsup coats and physically blocks radiation from striking DNA. Others think it boosts the cell’s repair machinery, fixing damage ...

For decades, scientists believed the essence of life was written solely in four chemical bases: A, C, T, and G. Together, ...

Like a blueprint for making living microprocessors, the geometric code helps cells store and process information. “Rather than a predetermined script based on fixed genetic instruction sets, we humans ...
