Researchers have unlocked the final gaps in the human genome, and what they tell us could mean big waves for the future of ...

The first study to examine the extent of European ancestry biases in gene maps reveals tens of thousands of genetic ...

Scientists discovered that the first 100 base pairs of human genes are unusually prone to mutations, especially during the earliest stages of embryonic development. These mosaic mutations often go ...

We've made some great strides in understanding the human genome, but before we can tackle genetic engineering, we have some ...

Human gene maps contain major blind spots because they were built largely from the DNA sequences of people with European ...

The last two decades have seen a revolution in scientists' ability to reconstruct the past. This has been made possible ...

DNA sequencing technology makes it possible to explore the genome to learn how humans adapted to live in a wide range of ...

When cells proliferate, genomic DNA is precisely duplicated once per cell cycle. Abnormalities in this DNA replication process can cause alterations in genomic DNA, promoting cellular ageing, cancer, ...

Researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine-Qatar (WCM-Q) have published a study demonstrating the use of an advanced ...
