By treating DNA as a language, Brian Hie’s “ChatGPT for genomes” could pick up patterns that humans can’t see, accelerating ...

Emerging findings suggest that viral DNA may play an important part in how embryos form, right after fertilization.

Researchers discovered how genetic switches shaped human brain evolution by fine-tuning shared gene expression.

What makes the human brain unique? A Yale study unlocks new insights into genetic changes that shaped our evolution.

The Fascination with Neanderthals Begins For many, the name Neanderthals conjures images of hairy, robust humans who walked ...

Comparison of that ancient DNA with modern human DNA showed that the two species had interbred and that people today still ...

"Recently, the nearly complete human genome has been sequenced, but many of its functional regions remain unknown. Our findings link DNA sequence information with its functional roles. We hope ...

Originally built to allow researchers to explore a single human DNA sequence assembled by the Human Genome Project Consortium (HGPC), it is now accessed by tens of thousands of researchers a day to ...

Researchers at the University of Toronto have invented a new method that uses DNA sequencing to measure metabolites. This ...

A new study shows that long-read sequencing has the potential to improve the rate of diagnosis while reducing the time to diagnosis from years to days — in a single test and at a much lower cost.

There has been some incredible research into the role this DNA plays in modern human neurodevelopment, so here's an overview ...
