Researchers at Monash University in Melbourne, Australia, have uncovered the hidden code governing how genetic mutations affect RNA splicing and result in disease. The researchers were able to ...

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 ...

A small change to a powerful molecular tool — using the CRISPR-Cas13 enzyme, which can detect RNA from viruses and cells — ...

A new generation of artificial intelligence is starting to read the human genome with a fluency that would have sounded like science fiction a decade ago. Instead of scanning DNA for one mutation at a ...

Hyderabad: Cancer research is currently undergoing a massive paradigm shift. Once thought to be triggered by a single genetic error, cancer is now understood as a complex and multi-layered ...

Identifying and classifying gene mutations - which are the permanent changes in a person's DNA genetic code - are critical in better understanding, and with research, eventually treating or preventing ...

Khaberni - Nearly four decades after the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear reactor disaster, a new study reveals clear evidence of some ...

A Mayo Clinic-led team of researchers is solving one of the most frustrating aspects of genetic cancer screening — results that give zero guidance to patients on whether they are at elevated risk.
