In the damp understory of forests in Taiwan, mainland Japan, and Okinawa, a plant called Balanophora can fool you at first ...

Researchers in Sweden recovered RNA from a 130-year-old Tasmanian tiger, allowing them to identify which genes were active in its tissues before extinction.

One of the most detailed 3D maps of how the human chromosomes are organized and folded within a cell's nucleus is published in Nature. Chromosomes are thread-like structures that carry a cell's ...

Researchers have created detailed genetic maps that show how large networks of genes drive disease, filling in long-missing biological gaps. The breakthrough could change how scientists identify and ...

KJ Muldoon received a groundbreaking new treatment earlier this year. The baby saved from a rare disease by a first-ever personalized gene fix has reached a big milestone, taking his first steps ahead ...
