A large genetic study shows that many people carry DNA sequences that slowly expand as they get older. Common genetic ...

DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave.

Victoria Gray spent 34 years battling the debilitating pain of sickle cell disease. Then she volunteered to be the world's first "prototype" for a CRISPR therapy, based on technology invented at UC ...

Biology has always been an unruly science. Cells divide when they want to. Genes switch on and off like temperamental lights.

Researchers are investigating the role of non-coding DNA, or junk DNA, in regulating astrocytes, brain cells involved in ...

Scientists are literally turning back the clocks in our cells, with the first drugs about to go to human trials ...

Built by Sensia Technology, it was thin enough to hang like a tapestry or slip under bedding. Volume was modest, audio ...

But some Neanderthal DNA helped modern humans survive and reproduce, and thus it has lingered in our genomes. Nowadays, ...

On February 2nd, 2025, computer scientist and OpenAI co-founder Andrej Karpathy made a flippant tweet that launched a new phrase into the internet’s collective consciousness. He posted that he’d ...
