A new genetic mapping strategy reveals how entire networks of genes work together to cause disease, filling in the missing ...

This comprehensive e-book from The Hindu explores how gene editing tools like CRISPR and synthetic biology are fundamentally changing what it means to be human and are giving us the power to modify ...

Scientists studying thousands of rats discovered that gut bacteria are shaped by both personal genetics and the genetics of ...

Humans have it. So does Drosophila. But not yeast. That "it" is a small pause at the start of gene activity—a brief molecular halt that may have helped life evolve from simple cells to complex animals ...

A new genome-wide mapping method finally shows how thousands of genes connect to drive disease. Biomedical researchers are working intensively to identify the genes that contribute to disease, with ...
