Cancer patients who got an mRNA COVID vaccine within a few months of their immunotherapy lived longer than those who did not, health records show.

Leiden researchers, led by Sebastian Pomplun, have developed a new method to screen hundreds of thousands of molecules for ...

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

and G—that make up the genetic code. The prevailing belief was that by decoding these sequences, we could unlock how cells and organisms fundamentally work. Now, research from Northwestern Engineering ...

Modern genetic research reveals that large parts of the human genome come from ancient retroviruses, permanently woven into our DNA over millions of years. Russia reacts to Trump's Venezuela drug boat ...

Most organisms on Earth have the same basic genetic code, but it comes with some flaws. Scientists sought to work out those errors by creating their own artificial genome, which replaced E. coli’s ...

With the power to rewrite the genetic code underlying countless diseases, CRISPR holds immense promise to revolutionize medicine. But until scientists can deliver its gene-editing machinery safely and ...

We’ve heard of GMOs, but this is ridiculous. Scientists at the Medical Research Council’s Laboratory of Molecular Biology say they’ve engineered a bacteria whose genetic code is more efficient than ...
