The researchers say that, to their knowledge, this is the first demonstration of programmable, site-specific integration of a large DNA payload into T cells in vivo.

A 24-year-old Southfield college student has become the first patient in Michigan to receive a new gene therapy that could ...

Analysis of hundreds of environmental exposures and health outcomes quantifies influence of nongenetic factors ...

For decades, scientists have been carefully unraveling the role of genes in disease by examining how small variations in a person's genetic code can shape lifelong risk of developing common conditions ...

When we artificially induce rain or snow, we use a process called cloud seeding. Particles are launched into the sky to give water molecules a surface to freeze onto. As the ice crystals grow heavier, ...

The Michigan State University College of Human Medicine is working to raise awareness of an often hidden gene mutation that’s ...

Microplastics gather anti-biotic resistant bacteria as they move through water, allowing microbes to spread from polluted sites into rivers.

Rutgers-Newark researchers have shown that a genetic variant specific to African ancestry alters the brain in a way that could foretell the eventual development of Alzheimer's Disease. At the same ...

Scientists have uncovered an enormous hidden archive of plant DNA that has endured for more than 400 million years. By comparing hundreds of plant genomes, researchers identified more than 2.3 million ...

Researchers uncovered millions of ancient plant DNA switches—some older than flowering plants themselves—revealing a hidden evolutionary blueprint stretching back 400 million years. Most people have ...
