Scientists might have succeeded in sequencing the entire human genome, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t still learning new ...

Differences among the DNA of seven ape species—including humans—are greater than originally thought, according to an ...

Researchers have successfully employed an algorithm to identify potential mutations which increase disease risk in the noncoding regions our DNA, which make up the vast majority of the human genome.

Scientists created the largest functional map of a brain to date using a piece of a mouse's brain. The map details the wiring that connects neurons, offering insight into brain function and ...

An international team of researchers co-led by Job Dekker, Ph.D., at UMass Chan Medical School, have identified rules that ...

Preliminary findings of the GenomeIndia project reveal genetic variants in Indian populations, aiding precision medicine and disease diagnostics.

The ability to analyze and manipulate the human genome has taken an impressive step forward with the commercial launch on October 2 of a microarray for analysis of the whole genome on a single chip.

WASHINGTON — Keith Joung knows better than a lot of people what, exactly, it might require to prove to regulators and patients that CRISPR could be safely used to alter the genome of a human embryo.

Research into transcription factors deepen understanding of the 'language' of the genome, offering insights into human development.

Around 2018–19, there was not a bigger science and ethical story than the debate over heritable human genome editing (HHGE) and the scandal over the “CRISPR babies.” The scientist ...

CHOP, Penn Medicine researchers use deep learning algorithm to pinpoint potential disease-causing variants in non-coding regions of the human genome: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Mo ...

While certain sections of the human genome code for proteins to carry out a variety of essential biological functions, more than 98% of the genome does not code for proteins. However, disease ...
