New research has discovered that the molecular machines responsible for copying our DNA have a surprising hidden talent—an ...

Hidden within fish DNA are powerful genetic twists that may explain one of nature’s biggest mysteries: how new species form so quickly. In Lake Malawi, hundreds of cichlid fish species evolved at ...

The droppings contain DNA, he thought, and perhaps, even after rain washes them away, some DNA might remain. And if it does ...

The human genome is made up of 23 pairs of chromosomes, the biological blueprints that make humans … well, human. But it turns out that some of our DNA — about 8% — are the remnants of ancient viruses ...

Despite spanning about three billion base pairs, the human genome is wrapped up tight in a highly organized fashion in the nucleus. This coordinated structure, in part, enables the cell to regulate ...

For decades, biologists have known that the instructions for life are written in DNA, yet the vast majority of those letters seemed to sit in the dark, doing little that was obvious. Now a new ...

DNA robots are emerging as tiny programmable machines that could one day deliver drugs, hunt viruses, and build ...

Volatile macroeconomic events are magnified in life science and healthcare applications, which are capital intensive, long-term investments with associated regulatory, safety, and commercial risks.
