A team of Chinese scientists has uncovered a hidden 3D structure in rice DNA that allows the crop to grow more grain while ...

An artificial intelligence model predicts how brain immune cells react to RNA and DNA nanoparticles, helping scientists design safer and more effective nucleic acid therapies faster.

The 55th Lewis S. Rosenstiel Award for Distinguished Work in Basic Medical Research has been awarded to professor Steven ...

Genetic tweaks allowed early humans to stand, balance and walk on two legs instead of moving on all fours like other primates, according to researchers.

Cancer treatment has always been a balancing act—hit the tumor hard enough to kill it, but not so hard that the patient ...

This may help explain how cells maintain identity while still adapting to new environments: memory nodes link genetic information to physical structure, allowing new genome ‘stories’ to be written ...
