Understanding human gene function in living organisms has long been hampered by fundamental differences between species.

Analysis of the entire genome of a 14,400-year-old woolly rhinoceros ( Coelodonta antiquitatis ), recovered from the stomach ...

One year ago, Tim Andrews was among the world’s first recipients of a genetically modified pig kidney. Now, he is the first in that small group of pioneers to go on to receive a human kidney.

SNPBag is a large language model pre-trained with whole-genome SNP data from 1 million synthetic individuals. It is currently fine-tuned for 5 tasks: Folders contain code for reproducing figures on ...

DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave.

We explore the idea of 'longevity genes' and whether being blessed with a FOXO3 variant which will translate to a longer and ...

The boundaries between clinical biology and metaphysical experience are the focal point of a significant new contribution to contemporary music-theatre. Composer-saxophonist Lydia Kenny and librettist ...

How much of our genome really matters? Some argue that because most of our DNA is active, it must be doing something important. Others say even random DNA would be highly active. This has now been put ...

Scientists have created the most detailed maps yet of how the human genome folds and reorganizes inside cells, revealing a hidden layer of genetic regulation that unfolds across space and time. Credit ...
