Genes aren’t destiny. The ARCH × Φ model explains how brain wiring, motivation, culture, and timing interact—multiplying risk ...

Researchers have completed a first-in-human clinical trial testing a CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing technique to help the immune system fight advanced gastrointestinal (GI) cancers. The results show ...

The only remaining autonomous 'jumping gene' can only attach to, and stitch a copy of itself into, DNA when it builds up into large clusters and only as cells divide.

Gene therapy has emerged as a promising approach to previously untreatable conditions, including Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), a progressive disorder caused by DMD mutations that leads to early ...

Viruses are known to use the genetic machinery of the human cells they invade to make copies of themselves. As part of the ...

For billions of years, viruses and bacteria have been embroiled in an arms race. In response to constant attacks by viruses ...

Increased vegetation growth in European mountains, driven by climate and land-use changes, reduces the genetic diversity of ...

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have developed a technique that enables efficient delivery of therapeutic proteins and ...
