For centuries, we’ve imagined Neanderthals as distant cousins — a separate species that vanished long ago. But thanks to ...
When people think of DNA, they usually think of genes, the parts that code for proteins and drive inherited traits. But there ...
Scientists use DNA to track the spread of species in major river mouths and coastal tributaries along a 1,000-kilometre stretch of the NSW coastline — revealing some surprising results.
The genetic atlas revealed new information about health risks, ancient political borders, and the influence of Vikings.
Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and UCL have analyzed ancient DNA from Borrelia recurrentis, a type of bacteria that causes relapsing fever, pinpointing when it evolved to spread ...
A recent study shows how extrachromosomal DNA contributes to tumor heterogeneity and may drive cancer progression.
Researchers have developed a new technique — volumetric DNA microscopy — that can create a spatial map of genetic sequences and where in an organism they are located, down to the cellular level.
The first complete DNA methylation atlas of 39 human cell types reveals which genes can talk or are silenced, depending on whether their sequence is linked to methyl group epigenetic modification that ...
UC Davis researchers have generated the most high-quality map of the DNA of the pistachio, allowing breeders to develop better varieties.
