A new computational machine learning method developed by computational biologists can help researchers discover spatial patterns of gene expression in diseased tissue. In disease research, it's ...

Researchers have developed 'tomoseqr' -- a new software tool that enables easy estimation of the three-dimensional (3D) spatial distribution of gene expression. Tomoseqr is free to use and has been ...

Scientists at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard have improved a gene-editing technology that is now capable of inserting or substituting entire genes in the genome in human cells efficiently ...

Thanks to increasingly efficient and affordable gene sequencing technologies, we can now chart our genetic blueprint in unprecedented detail. But what does each gene do? Of the roughly 20,000 genes ...

The concept of trauma's lingering effects across generations has fascinated scientists and psychologists alike. Recent ...

For years, orange juice has been sold as a simple source of vitamin C, but new human data suggest that a morning glass may be doing something far more radical inside the body. Researchers now report ...

A healthy lifestyle may be able to cancel out roughly 60% of the impact of “life-shortening” genes, potentially adding another five years to your life, according to a recent study. Some people live to ...
