Researchers at Moffitt Cancer Center have developed a new way to predict how cancer cells evolve by gaining and losing whole ...

A previously unknown strain of syphilis bacteria has been discovered in human remains in Colombia, dating back 5,500 years.

The digested meat from the wolf pup’s last meal, which took place a staggering 14,400 years ago, contained enough DNA from ...

A research team led by Zhiping Weng, Ph.D., and Jill Moore, Ph.D."18, at UMass Chan Medical School, has nearly tripled the ...

The findings, published in the journal Genome Biology and Evolution, show that woolly rhinos remained "genetically healthy" ...

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

Human evolution is explained through branching lineages rather than a simple linear progression. Fossils, genetics, and archaeology together reveal how multiple human species emerged, interacted, and ...

An illustration of multicolored tangle of threads within a small black sphere. A 3D illustration shows DNA packaged into the nucleus, scientists with the 4D Nucleome project are now building accurate ...

Researchers have discovered new regions of the human genome particularly vulnerable to mutations. These altered stretches of DNA can be passed down to future generations and are important for how we ...
