A new multi-generational study suggests that the effects of violence can remain in your genes—and be passed down to future ...

African scientists say the world is missing vital medical insights by ignoring the continent's vast genetic diversity. Less than 2 percent of human genome sequencing worldwide comes from African ...

Washington state will soon have another tool to support long-term management for one of the highest priority invasive species ...

Hyderabad: Recent global genomic study have provided fresh insights into how primates, including monkeys, apes, lemurs, and ...

Under the right conditions, duckweed essentially farms itself. Wastewater, ponds, puddles, swamps—you name it. If there's ...

Those whose CRP levels became high had an increased risk of any stroke (HR 1.45), while those with persistently high CRP ...

Sequencing the human genome enables scientists to study human biology in a granular fashion and use that information to create treatments for things like cancer. Yet, of the human genomes studied so ...

As warehouses go, nuclei are more like libraries than bank vaults. Too many cellular components need access to the genome to lock it down like Fort Knox. Instead, large groupings of more than 1,000 ...

R75W mutation in the gap junction β2 (GJB2) gene causes severe fragmentation of gap junction plaques, connecting adjacent ...

Scientists have released new and more accurate genome sequences for five species of duckweed. Their research reveals the specific genes responsible for some of the plant's most useful traits, allowing ...

Evolution is nature's engine, driving and shaping genetic change and the diversity around us. Charles Darwin famously ...
