A newly discovered protein from Earth's toughest animal is inspiring breakthrough therapies for cancer and cardiovascular ...

An artificial intelligence model predicts how brain immune cells react to RNA and DNA nanoparticles, helping scientists design safer and more effective nucleic acid therapies faster.

Understanding how cells turn genes on and off is one of biology's most enduring mysteries. Now, a new technology developed by ...

DNA shines a light back into the past, showing us things that fossils can't. But how far back can that light extend? Some of the oldest DNA sequences come from mastodon and polar bear fossils about 50 ...

Decades of research has viewed DNA as a sequence-based instruction manual; yet every cell in the body shares the same genes – so where is the language that writes the memory of cell identities?

Sections of DNA once dismissed as dormant and useless could in fact be recruited to fight certain types of drug-resistant ...

ETH Zurich scientists have created “MetaGraph,” a revolutionary DNA search engine that functions like Google for genetic data. By compressing global genomic datasets by a factor of 300, it allows ...

Brains with chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) show DNA damage similar to Alzheimer’s. Study links genetic stress to ...

Standard laboratory tests can fail to detect many disease-causing DNA changes. Now, a novel 3D chromosome mapping method can ...

Arabidopsis thaliana was always an unlikely candidate for the limelight. But 25 years ago, the diminutive thale cress ...
