Columbia University engineers 3D print self-assembling DNA - using biomolecular code to produce nanoscale devices at scale.
Ancient DNA from prehistoric bones reveals a 37,000-year timeline of human infections, tracing our long struggle with disease.
Learn more about the research of Mayo Clinic's Gene Editing and Cellular Engineering Laboratory led by David (Chun-Wei) D.
In biology textbooks and beyond, the human genome and DNA therein typically are taught in only one dimension. While it can be ...
By analyzing ancient DNA, scientists determined when, where and how our ancestors got sick from infectious diseases.
Our cells' identity is shaped by DNA tags called methylation. New tech, scDEEP-mC, maps these tags in single cells with ...
Carl Zimmer writes about the results of a new genetic study of humans and the diseases that afflicted us over the past 37,000 year ...
When people think of DNA, they usually think of genes, the parts that code for proteins and drive inherited traits. But there ...
Imagine if you could "print" a tiny skyscraper using DNA instead of steel. That’s what researchers at Columbia and Brookhaven ...
While these methods are efficient at mapping large-scale genomic motifs and producing genome-specific DNA barcodes, (9,10) they are subject to optical resolution limits. Consequently, the development ...
Using brain gene expression maps from the Allen Human Brain Atlas, the researchers tested the degree to which Alzheimer’s risk genes explain the patterns of both actual and residual tau. This allowed ...
